Kendall Jenner's best runway moments Celebrating her 28th birthday

It wasn't easy for Kendall Jenner to grow up in America's most-watched family. In the spotlight since she was 12 years old, thanks to the reality show KUWTK, overshadowed by her more exuberant and curvy sisters (Kim, Kourtney, Khloé and Kylie), Kris and Caitlyn Jenner's eldest daughter, with her height of 1.79 m and long-lined physique, confessed that she always felt like an ugly duckling. Then, as in a modern fairy tale, her differences from the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan helped her to pursue a career in fashion and to become one of the most popular and paid models in recent years. 

She made her debut in 2011, during Sherri Hill SS12 fashion show, but the actual success started to arrive in 2014, when she signed a deal with The Society Management agency and the big brands, from Marc Jacobs to Givenchy, from Chanel to Balmain, from Fendi to Versace, started to cast her for their catwalks and advertising campaigns. In a short time, Kendall has emerged, evolving into an it-girl with over 140 million followers on Instagram, with a virtual twin copying each of her outfits (@kirbyjenner), with a BFF crew that includes Gigi and Bella Hadid, Hailey Bieber and Cara Delevingne called The Super Natural Friend Group; but also with designers and artists (remember when Maurizio Cattelan and Campbell Addy portrayed her as a wall trophy for the Garage magazine cover? ) who play with her image, turning her, according to their wishes, into tomboy or femme fatale, dark or girl next door. 

G-club has selected to wish her a happy birthday by retracing her best runway moments.
