The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and North West is a good example. Born to legendary parents Kim Kardashian and you (formerly Kanye West), North has accumulated the combined boldness of the two. From training the Yeezy mogul in fashion to offering his two cents on Kardashian’s little couture details, North has truly embodied the spirit of a rockstar offspring.

North West Schools Father West

North West may not have as many businesses under her belt as her parents, but she’s already made it clear that she’s not far behind. While Ye’s fierce mastery of rhyme has struck fear into his rivals over the years, it seems that within the confines of the West-Kardashian house; the rapper was always the one who feared his daughter North West, now 11 years old. In 2018, the Yeezy founder spoke to Chicago’s Power 92, revealing that there was only one boss in their household, and that was North.

The fashion mogul temporarily put aside his role as fashion mastermind to become an assistant designer for his daughter.

Even at only five years old, North failed to hold back his strict standards for fashion engineering, leading to a moment where Ye didn’t quite handle the plastic correctly, prompting him to declare that he would never sell clothes this way.. While that may seem like a bold statement for someone who has led a fashion renaissance in sneakers, for North it’s simply a starting point to prove that like father, like daughter.

Kim Kardashian may have a billion-dollar fashion line under her belt, but there’s only one person allowed to dole out billion-dollar advice and bitter fashion pills to her, and it’s North West. The budding fashionista didn’t spare her father when it came to fashion critiques, so it seemed only right to also make Kardashian the subject of her fashion police.

In an episode of The Kardashians, one such moment was captured while trying on Kardashian’s 2023 Met Gala beaded dress. North went to great lengths to criticize his mother and Schiaparelli’s creative director. In North’s eyes, there were excessive holes in the beads, giving her mother the appearance of a Hawaiian girl in a torn dress.

While it may surprise fans familiar with her couture preferences, given that she’s been schooling her fashion mogul parents since the age of five, it’s not entirely off-limits for her to walk the beat of her own fashion drum, with herself as the only guide. While fashion only checks one segment of North’s resume, there are other boxes to illustrate that she’s a jack of all trades.
