Kendall Jenner to be named fashion icon of the decade at New York Fashion Week, and not everyone’s happy about it
Model-of-the-moment Jenner, half-sister of Kim Kardashian who rose to fame as a teenager sharing small screen with America’s reality-TV queen, will receive the honour in New York next week
Ten years ago, model Kendall Jenner was 11 years old. Next week, she will be named Fashion Icon of the Decade.
Jenner, the half-sister of Kim Kardashian, will receive the honour on September 8 at New York Fashion Week. It is handed out by the fashion website Daily Front Row.
Jenner is one of the models of the moment, along with sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid. And she has 83 million followers on Instagram.
Social media lit up with commentary on the news. Not everyone thinks the 21-year-old deserves the award.
“Oh please! What about @NaomiCampbell or @CindyCrawford you know real models who got to the top due to hard work not who mummy is. Pathetic,” Twitter user Ginger Winger wrote.
