Karlie Elizabeth Kloss (born August 3, 1992)[4] is an American model. She was a Victoria's Secret Angel from 2013 until 2015, when she resigned to study at New York University. By 2019, Kloss had appeared on 40 international Vogue covers.
Karlie Elizabeth Kloss was born on August 3, 1992, in Chicago, Illinois[4][5] to Tracy Kloss (née Fares), a freelance art director, and Kurt Kloss, an emergency physician.[6] She has three sisters:[7] one older sister named Kristine and twin younger sisters named Kimberly and Kariann.[8] She moved to St. Louis, Missouri, with her family in 1994.[4] In 2013, the family moved to Goshen, New York to support her modeling career.[6]
Kloss was discovered at a local benefit runway show in 2005.[12] In 2006, at the age of 14, she posed for the photographer David Leslie Anthony in a cover and editorial spread titled "Almost Famous," for the June issue of Scene Magazine.[13]Elite Model Management Chicago[a] forwarded her tear sheets to their New York office, which signed her.[15]
Kloss found herself in a legal dispute when Elite Model Management, believing they were responsible for launching her career, sued Next Management for allegedly stealing her away and offering her 'improper compensation.'[16] The case was eventually settled out of court.[23] After four years of being represented by Next Management, Kloss signed with IMG Models, simultaneously leaving Mother Model Management in St. Louis.[24][25][26] In 2009, Vogue Paris named her one of the "top 30 models of the 2000s."[27][28]
Kloss made her first venture into television when she appeared in the Gossip Girl episode "Belles de Jour" as herself.[41] She became a muse for fashion designer John Galliano[42] and has appeared in his and Dior's campaigns.[43] She opened both the Christian Dior Haute Couture and Dior Resort shows in the Spring/Summer 2010 season. In Spring/Summer 2011, she opened ten shows and closed eight.[citation needed]
2011–2014: Recognition and success
Kloss renewed her contract with Christian Dior for the third season in a row in 2011.[44] Photographer Gabrielle Revere was commissioned by Life magazine to photograph her for the cover of a special print issue handed out during New York Fashion Week in September 2011.[45][46][47] The photo story inside the issue was photographed during the summer of 2011 and shows her at couture shows in Paris, New York City, and her hometown of St. Louis.[46][48] That fall, she made her debut in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.[49]
In 2013, Kloss was the face of Donna Karan, Lacoste, and Lanvin campaigns. Kloss worked with Victoria's Secret on their 2013 summer swimwear video.[63] She was also the red carpet host of the 2013 MTV Movie Awards pre-show.[64] In April, Kloss starred alongside Daria Strokous, Monika Jagaciak, and Iris Strubegger in Louis Vuitton's Alma bag campaign.[65][66] In 2013, Kloss was named as one of the new ambassadors for Coach, Inc. and starred in the accessory maker's fall 2013 campaign.[67]
In April 2018, Kloss was announced as Estée Lauder's newest global spokesmodel[90] and brand ambassador.[91] In October 2018, Kloss confirmed that she would be stepping into Heidi Klum's shoes on the seventeenth season of Project Runway as the host and executive producer. Of the show, she said, "I could not be more excited to host and produce a series that provides a platform to aspiring American designers as they pursue their creative and entrepreneurial dreams."[92][93]
Kloss ranks on the "New Supers" and "Money Girl" lists on Models.com.[94][95] Her runway walk is often described as powerful,[96] distinguished by her height, precision, fluidity, and serious, sultry expression.[97] She has described it as a "moody gait".[98]
Other ventures
Kloss collaborated with Momofuku Milk Bar to create 'Karlie's Kookies,' a special recipe sold at DKNY Soho during Fashion's Night Out in New York City; proceeds went to FEED Projects, where 10 meals were donated per tin of cookies sold.[99] She also led a group of high profile investors in purchasing the fashion magazine W in 2020.[100] In November 2023, she acquired British fashion magazine i-D from Vice Media Group and became its chief executive officer.[101] She is also an investor in the probiotic company Seed.[102] In 2020, Kloss was named a trustee of Barnard College for a four-year term.[103] In March 2024, she and her husband Joshua Kushner revived Life magazine for print and digital distribution through Bedford Media in partnership with Dotdash Meredith.[104]
In April 2015, Kloss launched Kode with Klossy, an initiative for teaching girls about computer science, with support from Estée Lauder.[107] She partnered with Flatiron School and Code.org to offer an annual scholarship for young girls interested in computer science and software engineering as part of the initiative.[108] The same year, she also launched a free two-week summer coding camp for girls aged 13–18, also called Kode With Klossy. The camp taught the basics of programming languages such as Ruby, JavaScript, and Swift. By 2018, Kode with Klossy had 50 camps in 25 US cities and had served upwards of 1,000 girls.[109] Program participants built fully functional mobile apps or websites with the camp.[110]
Personal life
Kloss began dating the businessman and investor Joshua Kushner in 2012.[111][112] The couple became engaged in July 2018, a month after she had converted to Judaism, Kushner's religion.[113][114] Kloss married Kushner on October 18, 2018, in upstate New York.[115][116] In June 2019, they held a second wedding celebration in Wyoming.[117] She is related by marriage to Kushner's elder brother Jared and his wife Ivanka Trump, members of the family of Donald Trump.[114][118] She has stated that she finds it "frustrating [...] that the spotlight is always shifted away from [her] career toward [her] relationship".[119] In December 2020, Kloss and Kushner purchased a home in Miami, Florida, for $23.5 million.[120] The pair also bought a 7,200-square-foot (670 m2) penthouse in the Puck Building in Manhattan for $35 million in 2021, and paid $29.5 million for the Wave House in Malibu, California, in August 2024.[121] They have two sons, born in March 2021 and July 2023 respectively.[122][123][124][125]
