for along time now she's dressed pretty stunningly. big name designers, heels on stage while she plays bass and dances that awesome little dance of hers. but i wanna know when this started. was it gradual? did she just wake up one day and say "i'm gonna start wearing good looking dresses & what not. dammit i'm gonna be hot!". because, c'mon, we've all seen the way she use to dress back in the day... that shit was hideous. ball caps!? flip up sunglasses?! that shit was never attractive, especially on a woman of kims stature. so when i ask you? WHEN!!!!!!!

you have no concept of what fashion really is at the heart of it.

Yeah, from the flip top glasses to now, Kim has always had a definite fashion sense. The glossy mags may have picked up on her later on but she has always had it going on. If anything, she's less 'fashionable' now than she was back in the 80s:



 

One of my fave shots of her

Yeah, EVOL sounds about right. It was during the Madonna fascination, wasn't it?
Personally I thought she looked best around the time of BMR, like in the Death Valley 69 video, she looks hot with that shotgun.

The bass that she plays usually adds to whatever fashion era she went / is going through; like the Ovation in the mid-80s, the thunderbird and that white BC rich bass during the Goo era.

I was looking for that picture of her when I posted the one above. That's definitely my favourite of shot of her. Sexy, cool and badass at the same time. Awesome!

This may be the moment where she became a more mainstream-friendly fashion 'icon'.

this was mentioned in the youth chapter of 'our band could be your life'. azzerad talks about how kim was at first very very shy, and it showed in her stage presentations. but as their career progressed, she became more assuming and more interested in sexuality. therefore, she started dressing a helluva lot sexier around 'evol', and then just kept getting sexier.
