Kim Kardashian, 2023 GQ Mogul of the Year on What She Learned from Her Father
/Better late than never, is AOC sharing Kim Kardashian’s December 2023 cover story for GQ’s Men of the Year Issue — just in time for Father’s Day.
KK wears the crown of Tycoon of the Year, and appropriately so.
It must be said, of course, that Kardashian couldn’t run this insane life of hers without Skims co-founders Emma Grede and Jens Grede.
Kim’s interview and cover story What Kim Kardashian Learned from Her Father are written through that exact lens by Sean Manning. Of course, it should be full of fresh angles, being a men’s magazine for once, and Manning’s status as vice president and executive editor at Simon & Schuster.
Coincidentally, AOC picked up the story on Apple News on the same day Kim Kardashian posted pics of her son Psalm’s fifth birthday party.
Even before reading the headlines, I saw the Robert Kardashian resemblance at once. The pensive and engaged look in Psalm’s eyes are absolutely his late grandfather’s Robert Kardashian.
Stella Greenspan styled Kim for one of those “day in the life of” fashion stories. The mix runs from investor-presentation tailored to manly-or-not, ties included. Add workout casual and a femme-fatale night engagement.
It’s cool that Dolce & Gabbana is behind the chairman of the board photo above. Add Balenciaga, Commission, Loewe, Martine Rose, Skims, The Row and more to this wide-ranging fashion mix.

AOC shares the Kardashian expectation that she wil take the California Bar exam late in 2024 or early 2025. In every article written about Kim, the topic of her self-discipline and very organized mind is the headliner. Manning’s is no different. She runs on a tight schedule and is hardly ever late.
Kardashian makes it all look so easy with her A+ mom skills. And yet, most of us — if we are realistic — know that Kim Kardashian runs on some very special juice. Whatever she’s drinking, we can’t put a price on it. ~ Anne
