Kim Kardashian Embraced Modesty, Lensed By Jackie Nickerson For CR Fashion Book #13
/ Anne EnkeNow: Feb. 2023: AOC has always said that Kim Kardashian is more complex than anyone wants to hear about, so we’ll keep quiet. But it is interesting to see this fashion story — of all her photo shoots — be discovered over four years later.
We’ll share much more of Kim K @ AOC at the end of this story. The one where she channeled Jackie Kennedy at the White House with North caused a real ruckus — like how dare she! But it’s also a lovely fashion story with Kim being every bit the lady. It’s also below — August 28, 2017.
Even when Kim does something outrageous — like her Interview Magazine shoot from Sept. 2022 below, AOC always swoops in to mention that on the same day, she clinched another business deal like the one with SKKY Partners private equity firm. Anne did say “Oh Kim, must you?” over the Interview shoot.
So the world is fixated on her butt and her nasty-gal status, but the mogul has just made another deal with very high-brow financial people or passed her bar exam or something far more important to Kim in her world — while people are hating on her.
AOC doesn’t judge Kim Kardashian. She is really something to behold on every front.
Then: Aug. 2018 : Kim Kardashian delivers a version of herself that we've never seen. Not only covered up, but a prairie-loving star in a John Wayne movie, Kim Kardashian takes center stage as a pioneer woman under the influence of Marie Antoinette. Carine Roitfeld styles KKW in Calvin Klein 205W39NYC, Balenciaga, Coach 1941, Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood, Max Mara and more for images by Jackie Nickerson in CR Fashion Book #13. The entrepreneurial mogul explains why this fashion shoot was her easiest:
When I do a shoot, I love to see the photographer’s version of me. I’m not this diva who shows up on set and has all these demands of specific angles and glam and how I want to look. I like doing things that aren’t me or aren’t the way that people typically see me, and I love to see that version too. This was my easiest shoot because I didn’t have to suck it in. I was just myself and it was more about attitude instead of showing off my body, which was different and refreshing. I think people don’t really see me as dressing so modest. What’s funny is that, though I obviously am very comfortable not being modest, my soul inside is kind of modest. My closest friends know that about me.
