Last month, eagle-eyed fashion historian and prolific Twitter and Tumblr user Rashida Renée noticed an interesting pattern: Kim Kardashian West, who had mostly been wearing vintage clothing from the ‘90s, had a muse. Nearly all of her looks, from vintage Versace to Alaïa to Dolce & Gabbana, had been worn on the runway or to events by one Naomi Campbell. Renée made a viral video pairing images of Kardashian West and Campbell (brilliantly soundtracked to Mariah Carey’s “Obsessed”), fashion watchdogs Diet Prada picked up the post, and the rest is history. Fans smelled a feud.
