Fashion may have its newest star, but the world will have to wait a few years until Kaia Aragon finishes school — elementary school, that is.
Nine-year-old Kaia Aragon has gone viral on TikTok for her stunning original fashion creations. Her mom, Tonya, boasts a TikTok account of her daughter’s original designs, @middle.mom, with 582.9K followers and 22.6M likes. Among those fans? Famous adult fashion icons, including Vera Wang, who sent the young talent a handwritten note.
Wang commented on one of Tonya’s TikTok videos and later sent Kaia a handwritten note, along with a purple backpack. “So excited to see you are already pursuing your dream of becoming a fashion designer! Congratulations and all good luck,” Wang signed the note.
Kaia told The Post she’s been designing “for a while now,” and just started sewing in November 2021. Her first project was a cat bed. But she quickly escalated to completing her own outfits.
“I like that depending on what you’re wearing it can make you feel confident and brave,” the youngster from Colorado told The Post.
