This season in New York, Bebe showed a line designed by sisters Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe Kardashian. These sexy clothes are the basis of what Bebe hopes will be a turnaround in the brand’s fortunes, and it seems to be working – the line sold so quickly online and in stores that many pieces are already sold out. So what are the clothes like? For anyone familiar with the Kardashians, it won’t be a surprise – they look exactly like clothes the sisters would wear. There’s an abundance of one-shouldered dresses and oversized blazers similar to what we’ve seen on the reality TV queens before. Kim Kardashian told the LA Times, “We wanted our first season to just represent us, and what we like to wear. Me and Kourtney and Khloe all have different styles, but there are lots of one-piece dresses — it’s easiest when you’re putting an outfit together — and we wanted fabrics that were stretchy because we all have different body types and wanted something that would fit all of us.”
Many of the pieces can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. Another popular reality TV star also in attendance at the Kardashian/Bebe runway show was Jersey Shore’s JWOWW, who is rumored to be working on her own clothing line – maybe she was picking up tips?
Bottom line: if you covet the Kardashian sisters’ sexy style, you’ll want to pick up some of these clothes for yourself. (And don’t worry – if you’re hoping to get your hands on some of the Kardashians’ pieces, you’re in luck as Bebe has re-ordered several of the most popular pieces. On their website you can choose to have them email you when your favorite design is available again, and in mid-April, a second round of Kardashian-designed clothes will be available, both on bebe.com and in stores.)
