Kendall Jenner's Family Didn't Even Recognize Her in PFW Show — and She 'Kinda' Loves That: 'Always My Goal'

Like season 5 The Kardashians started off with a bang, Kendall Jenner talks about one of her latest modeling gigs.

In the first episode of the new season of the show, shot in Fall 2023, Jenner opened up about her look at the Victoria Beckham Spring/Summer 2024 womenswear show, which was so unusual for her that even her own family — including her mom, Kris Jenner, Kris’ boyfriend, Corey Gamble and big sister Kim Kardashian — I didn’t recognize her.

During the premiere episode, which aired on May 23, viewers see Kris, 68, and Kim, 43, make a mad dash to the Paris Fashion Week show as they get stuck in traffic but arrive just in time to sit next to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour as well as David Beckham and see Kendall, 28, walk the runway.

“I think if anything, we need to be more on time – early — just don’t give anybody a reason to talk to—,” Kim said of her and mom’s late arrival to the show.

Kendall, meanwhile, took to the runway to close the show, which was held in the former home of Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld. Wearing thick, oversized black glasses, slicked-back hair and an oversized shiny black suit, the 28-year-old was almost unrecognizable – so unrecognizable, in fact, that her mum didn’t realize it was her.

In the confessional, Kris wondered aloud, “Where’s Kendall? Did we miss Kendall? I mean, maybe Kendall’s stuck in traffic? What’s going on?”

At the fashion show – which took place in September – the momager and SKIMS founder wore matching, silky outfits. Kris wore an all-black outfit that featured a spaghetti strap slip dress under a black leather jacket with a shearling collar, and Kim wore a silk matte pink strapless dress, also designed by Victoria Beckham.

Another shot in the episode shows Kris and Gamble not recognizing Kendall in a boxy outfit.

“Kendall,” Kris continued in her confessional, addressing her daughter directly, “I don’t want you to take this personally, but I think I should tell you that I didn’t see you walking because I didn’t recognize you. .That’s so horrible!”

Despite Kris’ dismay at not recognizing her daughter as she walked Paris Fashion Week, Kendall revealed she “loved” the reaction she got to her look.

“My family, my friends, they didn’t recognize me, but I kind of love it, I really kind of do,” Kendall said. “That’s, like, always my goal, like, to be a chameleon, I guess, in terms of becoming a different character.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Kim revealed that she spent a total of 12 hours at Paris Fashion Week last year and explained her high-octane schedule.

“So I’m going to New York, six o’clock, Paris for 3 o’clock, Atlantic City, Milan. My plane will go home, pick up my kids… So actually they’ll take me to Milan. Then I have to go to Washington DC,” Kim said to her mom and Gamble, holding a glass of champagne before the toast.

Reflecting on her sister’s plans in the confessional, Kendall said simply, “God bless her soul.”

“I have so much respect for the ‘give it’ level that she has…flying around to all those places and more power to her, for sure. But I just could never do it. It’s so much,” Kendall said.

– I worry about her, I really do – said the model and added that she would like her older sister to rest a little from time to time. “I often think about her in terms of wanting her to rest.”
