Kim Kardashian is THE fashion icon of the year, according to the people.

The KKW Beauty founder’s achievements and boundary-pushing fashion choices nabbed herself the “Fashion Icon Award” at the 2021 People’s Choice Awards.

The award ceremony was held Tuesday, December 7, in Santa Monica, CA.

Kim, along with her famous family, is ALWAYS a top pick in the list of PCA nominees.

The SKIMS founder is known for wearing everything from conservative fashion to the most risqué fashion.

Her openness to fashion and daring designs have earned her a front row seat in the fashion industry.

During Kim’s acceptance speech she had a short list of people to thank, and one of those people was her estranged husband, Kanye ‘Ye’ West.

As you may recall, Kim filed for divorce in February, but the two have remained extremely close and tight-knit despite Ye’s rebound with Irina Shayk and Kim’s current fling with Pete Davidson.

Do I smell a 2022 KimYe reconciliation?!?

While the couple say they remain close in order to coparent their four children, Kim previously shut down rumors of a reconciliation.

The 41-year-old started off her PCA acceptance speech by saying, “I’m humbled every single day that designers are willing to work with me. There was a time when they weren’t.”

“Thank you, Zac Posen, who dressed me and took me to my first CFDA Awards, and so many amazing designers like Riccardo [Tisci] and Olivier [Rousteing] that really believed in me. Well, they probably were talked into it by getting a call from Kanye,” she continued. “To Kanye for really introducing me to the fashion world. I fell in love with fashion, and I’m so inspired by so many people. But again, this is like a dream that I get to wake up and wear these amazing clothes and try new things and take a risk. I’m so humbled.”

It's clearly not lost on her that Ye got her to where she is in the fashion industry today.

Kim & Kanye have been spending a lot of solo time together

The estranged couple have been spending a lot of time together as of late.

Last week, Ye, Kim and North West attended Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2022 Collection fashion show to honor their late friend, Virgil Abloh.

Earlier this week, the couple were spotted together in Chicago, IL. at Abloh’s memorial service which was held at Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art.

The last time Kim was spotted with Pete was last month, and the ‘SNL’ star was sporting a serious bruise… on his neck.

The two appear to be infatuated with one another, but could all this time apart mean their romance is fizzling out?

It’s hard to say, but according to StyleCaster, Kim is reportedly already talking about having kids with the comedian.

According to a source, “When Kim met Pete, something inside of her told her she’d want to spend the rest of her life with him.”

Pete reportedly has the same feelings. “They’re talking about kids already,” the insider revealed. “Kim thinks he’d be the best dad. She’s smitten!”

We’ll have to wait and see what happens, but for now, we do know that Kim is smitten with being the People’s Choice “Fashion Icon.”
