Kendall Jenner walks at Chanel, cements official fashion status

by

We thought Kendall Jenner had done well to get the Marc Jacobs gig last month. Then she showed up at Giles – and after that, she walked for one of the most exclusive labels on the planet, Givenchy. With soon-to-be brother-in-law Kanye West looking on from the front row. And today? Well, today she walked for Chanel.

The apotheosis of Kendall Jenner is complete: she's walked three fashion weeks out of four, has claimed Harry Styles as a boyfriend and is now, unquestionably, proper Fashion.

After the Marc Jacobs show, one Never Underdressed staffer whispered, ‘I don't really know who she is – something to do with the Kardashians?’ but that kind of attitude is now seriously passé given that Marc, Giles, Riccardo Tisci and Karl Lagerfeld have anointed Kendall, who, of course, is something to do with the Kardashians – duh!, with magic fashion industry dust.

Kendall has previously modelled for the American super-brand Forever 21 and she has appeared in the pages of Teen Vogue with her sister Kylie, but this fashion month marks a transition to Serious Modelling and High Fashion, something she has made no secret of wanting to do.

Her big half-sister Kim Kardashian, herself recently taken into the inner sanctum of fashion via Kanye, Riccardo Tisci and Carine Roitfeld, tweeted and Instagrammed her pride at Kendall’s achievement after the MJ show.
