The offices of Kylie Cosmetics occupy the top floor of a boxy steel-and-glass building near the freeway in Calabasas, just outside Los Angeles, down the road from a shopping centre, a cluster of fast-food restaurants and a budget motor inn. If you were blindfolded and deposited in front of the building, and asked to guess where you were, you might say Utah. Gusts of cool December wind blow dead leaves and dust. Towards the end of my hour-long drive up from LA, an actual tumbleweed rolled along the shoulder of the 101.
Kylie Jenner—22-year-old beauty mogul, mother of two-year-old daughter Stormi Webster (with her ex, rapper Travis Scott), and youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan—is somewhere inside that building, in the midst of her transformation into Marie Antoinette for Harper’s BAZAAR.
Long-time fans of Keeping Up with the Kardashians (or KUWTK) remember Kylie as the precocious tween on the series, which debuted in 2007, when she was just 10. Early on, Kylie and her older sister Kendall—matriarch Kris Jenner’s children with her then-husband, Olympic gold medal winner Bruce (now Caitlyn) Jenner—would get into sitcom-style high jinks that provided a wholesome counterpoint to the more grown-up drama that embroiled older Kardashian siblings Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, and Rob.
