Kendall Jenner is a
chameleon of style which is one of the reasons she is constantly called
upon by some of the hottest designers to model their new collections.
Her
latest transformation comes with Marc Jacobs' Autumn/Winter 2016 ad
campaign where she channels her inner Marilyn Manson and KILLS IT as the
best Goth we've ever seen.

posted the image of Kendall on Instagram with a gushing explanation as
to why he picked the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star to appear in
his campaign.
KENDALL, Supermodel
I will always remember the first time I met Kendall during castings for
our Fall 2014 fashion show. Katie Grand invited her to come by the
studio for a brief introduction before she was photographed for the
model boards. At the time, I knew very little about Kendall…
As history now has it, her very first fashion show was for Marc Jacobs
Fall 2014. Kendall has since been a part of every show along with being
featured in our Spring ’15 ad campaign (also shot by David Sims). It
goes without saying that Kendall has gone on to establish an incredible
career for herself and every bit of it is a testament to her hard work,
passion and desire.
During castings for Fall ’16, due to the enormous height of the boots we
designed, we had to make certain that each girl was able to walk (and
walk safely). Kendall slid those boots on and walked around the studio
as if she was in a pair of running shoes: statuesque, confident and just
as enthusiastic and excited to be doing the show as if it was her first
one.
For me, it is the ability of a model to effortlessly transform into a
look and character that makes her so appealing and inspiring.

sweet, kind and ultimate professional, Kendall Jenner.
