Michael Kors Shares His Thoughts On Kendall Jenner’s Modeling Career

Kendall Jenner has been killing the runway this fall at fashion shows around the world. The 18-year-old has been showing off her skills at runway shows including Donna Karan, Tommy Hilfiger, Marc Jacobs and Diane von Furstenberg. In addition to the New York Fashion Week shows, she has also walked in Milan, including Fendi, Ports 1961, Pucci, Bottega Veneta and Dolce & Gabbana. Most recently she appeared in shows such as Chanel, Sonia Rykiel, Givenchy and Balmain during Paris Fashion Week. According to E! News, Michael Kors recently spoke out about the young model.

"I think she's a strong, powerful, great-looking girl. She's a real professional," Kors said at his special dinner celebrating the launch of Claiborne Swanson Frank's new book Young Hollywood in Beverly Hills. 

"I love that her card just says Kendall," referring to the fact that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star dropped her last name professionally. "So she's not trading on her name and I think she's going to have a great career."

When asked if he has any plans to work with Kendall in the future, he replied, "I think the big thing about models is it's kind of like actresses — the right actress in the right part," he explained. "And when it's the right show, I think, 'Hey, that's fabulous.' The right show with the right girl — it's kind of magic." 

Kors also shared some inside scoop on the latest fall fashion trends, and according to him, this season is all about comfort. "It's definitely flat shoes, flat shoes, flat shoes," he shared. "Even on the red carpet I think we're gonna start to see some flat shoes. And just an easiness in general, hands in the pockets, kind of a softness. And although it's hot as blazes here in L.A., pretty soon at night you're going to want to be putting on a cozy piece of knitwear so a great sweater coat or a great sweater jacket, big mufflers, lots of cozy knits this fall. I think they're kind of the first thing everyone is going to grab for."
