North West has made her solo modelling debut – in top-to-toe Chanel, no less.

Starring in the new issue of Carine Roitfeld’s CR Fashion Book, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s 13-month-old daughter dons a cashmere Chanel cardigan, pearl earrings and a teeny tiny version of the brand’s iconic 2.55 handbag.

The editorial, entitled Legends, hails the toddler as an ‘unconventional modern style icon’ and is accompanied by a quote from Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld, who declares, ‘It’s never too early to care about fashion.’

The image was shot by Michael Avedon (grandson of esteemed photographer Richard Avedon) who also recently snapped Kate Moss’s little sister Lottie for her first Calvin Klein campaign.

One of the most style-savvy babies, we think maybe ever, North has lately been sporting a whole wardrobe's worth of incredible designer outfits - from Givenchy baby tees, to small-scale Lanvin ball gowns, to mini Celine skate shoes. Chic.
