Kendall Jenner is celebrating her 10 year modelling career with Vogue Magazine

Kendall opens up about her decade-long career in fashion.

Kendall spoke to Vogue Magazine exclusively about her career so far. At first glance, Kendall Jenner's glamorous vacation photos seem typical. But a glimpse of Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking" hints at the deeper currents running beneath the surface.  Jenner admits to a tendency toward negativity, and even at the height of her success, she's experiencing personal struggles and anxiety.
 


Jenner reflects on her 10-year anniversary as a model—a journey that began with Marc Jacob's iconic 2014 show. While her family's fame opened doors, she faced scepticism and the need to prove herself. "I like being a pleasant surprise,"  she says, fueled by the desire to defy expectations.

The fashion industry is ever-evolving.  Jenner navigates the rise of social media influencers while remaining focused on whether new trends align with her brand.  Marc Jacobs, who cast Jenner early on, highlights the tension between leveraging a model's fame and showcasing the clothes themselves. He praises Jenner's beauty, work ethic, and ability to adapt.

Jenner acknowledges the ongoing impact of online criticism, a source of mental strain despite her success. But amidst personal challenges, she's experiencing a transformative period,  seeing her current struggles as a catalyst for change. This mix of ambition, vulnerability, and the unique challenges faced by a star who grew up in the public eye makes Jenner a compelling figure beyond the runway.
