- Kim Kardashian said that her mother upstaged her at her first major fashion shoot in 2013.
- Kardashian heard that Karl Lagerfeld, who did the shoot, gifted people bags after their first shoot.
Kim Kardashian said that her mother, Kris Jenner, stole the show at her first major photo shoot with the late Karl Lagerfeld by showing up in a full vintage Chanel outfit.
Kardashian told James Corden on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" Wednesday that her mother crashed the shoot, which was Kardashian's first major fashion spread and took place when she was pregnant with North West. She told Corden that Lagerfeld, the creative director of Chanel, arrived at the shoot, which was for CR Fashion Book, several hours after she did.
And then Jenner arrived in the "craziest Chanel scene" Kardashian had ever seen.
"Then, in walks none other than Kris Jenner, decked in head to toe vintage Chanel. Like, next level — the boots, the gloves, every accessory she can find, earrings, headband, hat, glasses, fanny pack, bag, backpack," Kardashian said. "So, he falls in love with her. Doesn't hardly even acknowledge that I've been like, sitting there, it's all about Kris Jenner."
Kardashian said that she was anticipating one particular element of the shoot, having heard previously that Lagerfeld gifted people a bag after their first shoot with him. When he walked out with a crystal, Lego clutch, her anticipation skyrocketed.
"And he goes over me and hands it to my mom," Kardashian said. "And I went into the bathroom, started hysterically crying, I'm like, pregnant, hormonal, flew all the way to Paris for this."
Kardashian revealed that her plan for the bag was to gift it to her daughter, North West, and display it in her room. Now, however, she told Corden that her mother has a provision in her will that the bag will go to North in the event of her passing.
And eventually, as People reported, Lagerfeld eventually did gift Kardashian with her own Chanel bag at the end of another Harper's Bazaar shoot.
