Can someone tell me the name of Kim's current stylist?
Simone Harouche, stylist to Kim Kardashian West
Could you imagine styling Christina Aguilera during the early aughts? That's just how Simone Harouche got her big break: In 2007, to be exact, she dressed up the pop star for a Vanity Fair party. Born and raised in LA, Harouche says fashion is in her blood because she grew up in the business: her father is a clothing manufacturer and her sister is a designer, which is probably why she switched career gears from studying journalism and photography at Parsons to focusing on costume design and styling. Harouche has been working with Kim for some time now, but the two are actually lifelong besties.
We're big fans of Kim's style transformation to a more understated and minimal aesthetic, but what's more exciting is seeing her wear vintage pieces from the likes John Galliano, Raf Simons, Prada and Helmut Lang — pieces pulled from collector David Casavant's designer archive. "She loves looking at vintage references," Harouche tells Fashionista. "The '90s and early 2000s are big trends in current fashion, and being able to wear the original pieces that still feel fresh and current is a big draw towards vintage. If you take that, plus the fact that these vintage and archival pieces are literally one-of-a-kind, you can't just find them in every store or press office — that is a huge benefit."
In addition to working with Kim, Harouche also styles Chloe Moretz, Miley Cyrus, Nicole Richie and, even a decade later, Aguilera. And while Harouche is well aware of what's having a major moment in fashion — she's a stylist, after all — she admits that she doesn't really stick to trends. "They come and go so quickly," says Harouche. "I like to stay true to classic pieces and silhouettes that honor each of my clients' individual perspectives on fashion." Agreed.
Its from 2008, from the LV x Takashi Murakami collab. I actually think it might be Kanyes, since he used to wear it out all the time.I don't recall seeing that LV bag recently, must be vintage.
