Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid were almost destined to become friends.
They both grew up in similar circles in California and burst onto the modeling scene as teenagers, quickly rising the ranks to reach full-blown supermodel status. While they initially met via Twitter in 2010 through Gigi's sister Bella Hadid, the pair quickly became friends themselves and have since shared countless runways.
"I think Kendall and I have a really good friendship in the sense that we have different career paths but we're both kind of on equal points in our careers where we really understand each other," Gigi told E! News in 2015.
When it comes to staying tough in the modeling industry, Gigi added of Kendall: "She's really good about negative stuff … I think that she's grown up in the spotlight so she knows how to handle it."
From making their Victoria's Secret Fashion Show debut together to partying at Coachella, here's a breakdown of Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid's friendship.
