Like mother, like daughters: Andie MacDowell teaches her stunning girls modelling tips on photoshoot

Andie MacDowell knows a thing or two about modelling, having started her career striking a pose around the world.

And she is now passing down the baton to her daughters who have both been kissed with their mother's genetic brush.

Rainey, 21, and Sarah Margaret, 16, looked like younger, but equally as beautiful, replicas of Andie, 53 as they enjoyed a photoshoot in New York yesterday.

Though no reason for their split was ever given, in 1996 Andie hinted at troubles in their relationship saying: 'We've had tensions.... the roles that I would have liked to have done that are very sexual give him the willies.'

MacDowell carved out a career as a model in the early 80s before she signed up for Greystoke: The Legend Of Tarzan, Lord Of The Apes in 1984.

She modelled for Vogue and shot with numerous respected photographers before making the leap to the big screen.
