If you got to choose one thing out of fashion iconCindy Crawford’s closet, what would it be?
When speaking with the iconic supermodel and her 22-year-old daughter at the Planet OMEGA exhibition in New York City, PEOPLE posed the question toKaia Gerber, whose eyes lit up with excitement when asked.
“What do you want?” Crawford, 57, reiterated the question to Gerber, who’s followed in her mother’s fashionable footsteps, paving a path of her own as a sought-after model in the industry.
“Careful what you’re asking!” quipped Gerber — to which her mom clarified, “You’re not getting it now, I’m just saying you should stake it out.”
While Gerber took her time to carefully consider the overwhelming amount of possibilities before answering the hypothetical question, Crawford jumped in to share with PEOPLE the memento she’d pass along to her daughter down the line.

“You know what I think that I would give you?” saidThe Super Modelsstar when speaking to Gerber. “So for my 20th anniversary, my husband gave me three eternity rings,” she began to explain of spouse Rande Gerber, who she married in 1998 following her split from ex-husbandRichard Gerein 1995.
“One [eternity ring] was to represent him, one was to represent Kaia and one was to representPresley [Gerber],” Crawford told PEOPLE at the event. “I would give those to her,” she says, before explaining the piece of jewelry she “wouldn’t give” Gerber.
“I wouldn’t give her my engagement ring because probably whoever proposes to you, you’ll want to choose the ring, even though that is a special piece as well,” she explains.
