It’s a well known fact among people who keep track of such things that Khloe Kardashian is a tall and sturdy woman. Why, here she is being all tall and stuff next to her sister Kim:
Khloe is an impressive 5’10″, while Kim and Kourtney are a diminutive 5’3″ and 5’2″, respectively. It looks extremely strange, then, to see them all portrayed to be roughly equal in size. Was famed photographer Annie Leibovitz trying to create a sense of vertigo in the viewer by making it look like the Kardashians are able to change form, growing and shrinking until you have no idea if they’re 5’2″, 5’10″, or Amazonian giants about to consume you?
Let’s answer that question with another question: When Leibovitz was touring with The Rolling Stones, did she ever imagine she might someday end up shooting the Kardashian Kollection for Sears? Let’s consult the history books.
“I hate the word ‘celebrity,’” she told JVIBE in 2007. “I’ve always been more interested in what people do than who they are, and I hope that my photographs reflect that. I have the opportunity to work with people who are the best actors and writers, athletes and dancers—a broad spectrum. I feel like I’m photographing people who matter, in one way or another.”
The Kardashians are the best postmodern fame whores, so really, it’s not out of line for her at all. The photos she took of them are not so different from her iconic photos of the past, either. I mean, look:
May she continue in this fine artistic tradition for many years to come.

Given the similarity to her previous iconic works, perhaps the Kollection photo shoot is social commentary! Huzzah, Annie! Nailed it on the head.
…right?
Actually, I think it looks like Kim and Kourtney are enlarged, and Khloe is normal sized. They all look really weird.
Also, will someone teach Kourtney how to pose/model? She’s beautiful but she looks awkward in all of these photos.
Agreed! If these are the final product, I call for a re-shoot.
Awkward posing. Awkward photo-shopping. Just too much awkwardness to deal with.
