Designer Says More Women Emulate Kim Kardashian Than Kate Middleton
“You don’t see hundreds of women running around looking like [Kate Middleton],” French designer Roland Mouret told Fashionista.com. “To be honest, we’re more likely to get orders on a dress that Kim Kardashian’s worn.”
Mouret has dressed both Kardashian and the Duchess.
Middleton is a fashion magazine darling, and it's been reported that every product she's photographed wearing sells out.
But Kardashian has received a chilly reception from the fashion world.
"Kim Kardashian—a sexpot with curves and a prodigious behind, a sybarite as well as a full-on capitalist—is an affront to everything (the fashion world) holds dear," New York Magazine wrote a couple months ago.
Kardashian's popularity shows a disconnect between the fashion industry and the public.
