Leave it to a Kardashian to sexualise the classic business suit. Yesterday, while appearing at the Time 100 Summit, Kim Kardashian decided to take the opportunity to reinvent the idea of traditional sophisticated suiting, wearing a transparent blazer and pant set to the event, where she not only walked the red carpet but took to the stage for a talk. 

The reality star turned entrepreneur — Kardashian has launched both Skims, a clothing line, and Skkn by Kim, a beauty line — turned lawyer (and soon-to-be actor) paired her see-through look with a bandeau top in the same colourway and matching pumps. She wore her hair styled up in a bun, posing for photos outside with fans who’d come out just to see her.

Not only did Kardashian’s unexpected wardrobe choice make headlines, but so too did her comments about her law career. During her talk, the 42-year-old revealed her plans to take the bar in February 2025, after passing the baby bar (First-Year Law Students’ Exam) in December 2021 on her third attempt.

Kardashian went on to say she’s considering giving up her current role on The Kardashians and all that comes with it to practise law full-time. “I joke with my mym—who’s my manager—I say, ‘Kim K is retiring, and I’m just going to be an attorney. So you can go help my siblings so you can still have a job,’” she said via Entertainment Tonight.

“I would be just as happy being an attorney full-time and doing that,” she continued. “The journey just really opened up my eyes to so much. It gets overwhelming because there’s so much to be done… I would totally spend more time doing that—cameras, no cameras.”

As she’s spoken about previously, Kardashian added that her father, famous attorney Robert Kardashian, was a driving factor in her choice to pursue law, saying, “I know that he would probably get such a kick out of this because he wouldn’t have expected it at all.” 

Here’s hoping in her lawyer era, Kardashian continues to champion unexpected business attire. When she dressed up as Elle Woods for Halloween all those years ago, who would’ve thought she’d soon be the real-life version of her just a few years later? Likely Kim. And Kris. There are no coincidences or accidents when it comes to a Kardashian.
