    Kimora really is the blueprint for alot of the fashion girls today and Kim K definitely took notes from her. I was obsessed with Kimora so much I watched almost every single episode of the Life In The Fab Lane lol she was such a glamorous doll 💖 and you always eat with the visuals and instrumentals!!! lol

      Indeed. I remember when I was a sales associate at a late popular department store (no longer exist) in the middle of downtown Chicago, she came to the store to do a trunk show / mini fashion show of some Baby Phat pieces that were going to be featured in the store.

    Kimora was that girl and the reason why so many were able to step foot in the fashion industry. I had the baby phat skirts, denim jacket, tank tops, puffer jacket. lol I was in love with Baby phat.

    To this day I feel horrible for begging my mom to buy me an $80 baby phat dress to wear on the first day of 10th grade. She was a single mom and this was 2003 so $80 was a lot more then than now. Anyways I made sure to wear that dress all the way until my 20’s 😅

    Kimora's fashion really was top tier, she really should've had the empire the Kardashians had, she was doing it allll before. they even came along and was soaring. I feel like Kellwood purchasing Baby Phat was a mistake although it was going good when they first purchased the company after a while because Kimora was doing new things, the company didn't have that same umph and flair but Kimora will ALWAYS be that girl for how she came in and dominated the fashion world in the 2000s

    Kimora had her foot on the girls necks when she created baby phat, her clothes were high quality AND cute which is something you can't get nowadays it's one or the other, even high end brands are are skimping on good quality clothing and hand bags. Kimora should've been on the same level as Kim K especially when she was involved in every process and wasn't stealing from other designers....

    Okay first off, the thumbnail is everthinggggg💎🫶🏾. Kimora really is a mogul, she had her hands in everything, what she was doing then is what the girls have just started doing. I love that she liked to challenge herself. I remember getting my KLS lip-gloss from Sephora and was sooo proud of it lol. people don't give Kimora enough credit for how she paved the way for so many women to enter the fashion and beauty industry

    Growing up, I loved watching Kimora Lee Simmons' TV show and was really inspired by her. She started Baby Phat, a fashion brand that I admire a lot. Now that I'm in college studying Business Administration and double majoring in Fashion Merchandising, Kimora continues to inspire me. Her success with Baby Phat motivates me to work hard on my own upcoming brand. Her journey encourages me to combine business skills with fashion knowledge to create something special.❤
