Young Fashion Designers

First there was Tavi Gevinson, the 13 year old style guru who conquered the US, Paris and Japan. But the story of Cecilia Cassini is even wackier. This cute teenager with her long blonde hair is not just obsessed with fashion – she also designs. She even sold her collection to the exclusive Fred Segal store in California! So how old is she? 17? 16? No! In fact she just turned 10. Please, she’s not even in Junior High yet!

She’s been called the new Donna Karan and teenage star Miley Cyrus confessed to be an enormous fan of Cecilia’s designs. Seriously, I always thought you had to study design or at least have a major in fashion. Apparently all you need is to ask your parents to buy you a sewing machine (she got one when she was 6 years old), some talent, and a lucky scrunchie.
