Kim Kardashian was not always world famous - before she was just a beautiful girl, in love with fashion. But she always knew what would become popular ...
Teenager Kim was fascinated by the film "stupid" primarily because she liked the outfits of the main character Sher Cherovitz, played by Alicia Silverstone. Kim even bought a dozen of the same. Probably, it was then that Kim realized her love of fashion. Today's Kim Kardashian, the happy wife of Kanye West and the mother of three children, has changed several different periods of her life. Let's consider 15 key moments of development of its style from the inveterate party-goer to the icon of style and person Vogue.
1. 25-year-old Kim looks here very young in a mini-dress flesh-colored, more like a nightgown. But we will not be too strict towards it - the fashion of the beginning of 2000 experienced a certain decline, screaming accessories, fur rims, silk and excessive nudity, as well as other signs of bad taste at that time were in the trend. Therefore it is not surprising that Kim chose a similar outfit for the Dom Perignon Rose Vintage Champagne party in 2006.
2. Oh, my God. Unlike the previous dress, for which Kim should not be scolded, this outfit on a picture of the same year 2006 is no good. Let's start with the boot. If Anna Vintur, the fashion guru, saw them, she would be speechless. The tunic, on the contrary, is pretty much nothing, but this tasteless belt spoils the whole look. Here, Kim at the party on the occasion of the release of the album Kingdom Come rapper Jay Z. I wonder what Kanye would say if he saw it then?
3. Like her younger sister Kendall Jenner, Kim also somehow walked down the podium. Then, in 2007, Kim preferred bright colors. At that time, she was the star of the reality show and tried to make a career in Hollywood. Therefore, before the era of dresses from Balmain, Givenchy, Lanvin and Cavalli, there were Ed Hardy and Christian Audigier at the autumn collection of the 2007 collection during the fashion week in Los Angeles. Quite clearly, Kim's face has also changed over the years. The most radically changed color: the skin became much lighter, because Kim stopped applying excessive amounts of dark tone to give her face a tanned appearance.
4. This is also 2007. Kim wore this strange outfit for a party in Los Angeles. I wonder if her idol Cher Horovitz would also wear such a bad taste? A Boho style with a brown bag in tone and with sandals on heels of the same color would not be so nightmarish if it did not put on a white belt. But she wore it. Yes, we almost forgot about leggings! In that season they were an important part of the wardrobe, so let's leave them alone. But still they are just awful!
5. Unfortunately, not everything can be attributed to the influence of fashion. By 2008, wherever it appeared, Kim's attention was focused on everything, and what she was wearing was subjected to careful analysis. It is important to note here that until 2010, Kim chose rather vulgar and sexy outfits that were not very suitable for her. In those years, she tried to attract attention to herself in every way and did not come up with anything better than choosing excessively catchy and open dresses to achieve results. We are almost sure that today Kim would not participate in the show "Dancing with the Stars", because self-respecting celebrities will not appear in such projects.
6. In 2008, Kim Kardashian has already become famous thanks to the reality show "The Kardashian Family". It is known that family members are very close. In this photo Kim walks around Monaco with her sister Courtney. In those days, the girls spent several hours a day with a team of stylists, putting their hair in order and picking up their outfits. Nevertheless, Kim then tried to put on the show designer clothes, which in fact she did not really go.
7. For a moment we'll return in 2006 and remember who influenced Kim's style at that moment. Naturally, we mean Paris Hilton. Since childhood Kim and Paris have been best friends, and when they grew up, Kim helped Paris get ready for filming in her reality show "Simple Life". In those days, Paris was as popular as Kim now, and before they swapped roles, both were avid party people and nightclub patrons. The style of clothing matched their lifestyle, and Kim was completely under the pernicious influence of Paris.
8. Some trends of zero today are able to confound the most sophisticated connoisseur of fashion. For example, why should you take expensive bags to the beach? Nevertheless, then it was considered normal, and it is no wonder that Paris and Kim tried to be in a trend. Between 2006 and 2009 they even dressed in the same way - probably, this is the custom for the best friends. Sometimes the golden bag was chosen by Paris, and sometimes she got to Kim. We believe, at this time, Kim's style was going through its worst days.
9. However, after 2009 everything changed. As Kim's popularity grew, her friend could not easily accept that she was no longer in the spotlight. Heiress of the world-famous hotel business even said that he would not like to have such hips as Kim, because they are "indecently bulky", adding: "They resemble cottage cheese in a large garbage bag." In the trendy autumn show Tracy Reese in 2009, both divas sat in the front row, but did not say a word to each other. This was also a turning point for Kim's style: it was time for change, everything was happening very quickly.
10. In 2010, Kim's style improved dramatically, while she took part in a photo shoot with Justin Bieber at the Paradise Island resort for the American version of Elle magazine. It is not known what was the reason, but it looked luxurious. Something changed in her face: she became more mature although as sexy as ever. The look of the fatal woman, bright lipstick and translucent black blouse created a new image of Kim Kardashian, which she had not yet seen. Since that moment, her outfits began to be chosen with taste, hair, make-up and accessories corresponded to the circumstances, and every appearance in public became an event.
11. In 2011, Kim looked great. She finally found out that it was not necessary to be half-naked all the time to look sexy. She became more mature, and it was very much coming to her, besides, she was preparing for the wedding with her friend - basketball player Chris Humphries. Often you could see how they went shopping together, and the favorite boutique for Kim was the boutique of Alexander McQueen. Then the lovers did not suspect that the marriage would last only 72 days.
12. You can forget Paris Hilton and Chris Humphries - Kanye West cardinally changed Kim. They started dating in 2012. That's when Kim first began to look natural and elegant, with the keyword - naturally. Despite the fact that her hair and make-up took away no less time than before, she no longer looked as if she had just left the barbershop. Kim once said that she was grateful to Kanye for changing it (and her wardrobe, too). She also noted that she was shaking from her past photos. Well, here she is not alone. In any case, from now on Kim has become confidently moving in the right direction to become a fashion star.
13. In 2013, Kim and Kanye appeared together on the red carpet Met Gala, which in itself was a big breakthrough, editor of American Vogue Anna Wintour, personally selecting guests for the ball, previously stated that Kim Kardashian will appear on Met Gala only through her corpse. Nevertheless, when Kim began to meet with Kanye, who had already been at the ball in the past years, Vintour changed her anger at the mercy and invited a young couple. Kim then waited for her first child, and both future parents were visibly excited. It was at this ball that Kim decided on her first serious experiment in clothes, provoking a storm of public indignation. The Internet exploded over the evening dress of Riccardo Tisci by Givenchy with a bright floral print, supplemented by the same gloves. Kim was compared to the piece of furniture. Later, Kim said that she still believes that the dress was beautiful, but what others think, it is not interesting.
14. When a celebrity starts to set new trends, it goes to a new level of popularity. This is what happened to Kim: she married a famous rapper and designer, completely changed her image and became an influential figure in the fashion world. Kim and Kanye are now introducing new trends into fashion, and Kim has become the best model for Kanye. In this photo, she is fully dressed in his Yeezy collection, and looks absolutely stunning at the same time! Thanks to Kim, flesh-colored dresses became a hit of the season.
15. The final proof that Kim Kardashian managed to conquer the world of fashion is the fact that she became the muse of a famous designer. We mean the creative director of Balmain Olivier Rustena. Kim and Kanye shifted the attitude of people to Balmain to a new level. The fashion house has its own army of modern sexy women, such as Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, that would have been impossible without the influence of Kim.
