Kim Kardashian doesn’t deny the comparison, writing on her Instagram story “My ski muse @victoriabeckham” on a photo of the designer at the time. But for the Skims founder, skiing isn’t all about a few paparazzi snaps or drinks, accompanied by her sisters Khloe and Kendall. No, even in Chanel, Kim Kardashian really skis.
