It has been reported that Kendall Jenner will not be walking in New York Fashion Week at all this year. It is still unclear if she will participate in other fashion weeks throughout the year.
It looks like Kendall Jenner won’t be walking in New York Fashion Week at all this year like she has in past years, and W and Elle brought us the inside scoop.
Even though Kendall has been in New York for fashion week sitting front row, she won’t be doing any runway shows. Viewers have seen her in photos around the city and even on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. However, this morning she was spotted arriving in Paris further confirming her lack of presence in the fashion show.
thank you for having me 🖤 https://t.co/c7Qr5DvgYP

Kendall has always struggled with her anxiety as we have seen on several episodes of Keeping up with the Kardashians. We usually hear an anxiety filled phone call with mom, Kris, before the “momager” thinks of a solution to calm her daughter down. Fashion week is no different when she has to make it a point to calm herself by doing things like taking baths.
It’s unclear if the anxiety is the only reason she isn’t walking in the shows. She has also talked about how much she loves being on the other side of things, and getting to see the lines when they are brand-new.
Kendall also recently faced backlash after a source reportedly skewed her words and made it sound like she didn’t have respect for other models that work multiple shows in a season, unlike Kendall who walks in only select shows. Jenner got on Twitter though to show people she does respect the work that other models put in when they do all of those shows.
I was misrepresented in a recent interview over the wknd & it’s important to clarify the meaning. It was intended to be entirely complimentary but unfortunately, my words were twisted & taken out of context.I want to be clear. The respect that I have for my peers is immeasurable!

I get to experience first hand their tireless commitment, their work ethic, the endless days, the lack of sleep, separation from family and friends, stress of traveling, the toll on physical and mental health, yet they still make it all look effortless and beautiful.

Kendall seemed to do a great job of rectifying any hurt feelings and setting the record straight.
