Watch: Kris Jenner Impressed With Kendall at Fashion Week

Kris Jenner is one proud mama!

The Kardashian-Jenner matriarch chatted with E! News about her 18-year-old daughter Kendall Jenner, who made quite a splash at New York Fashion Week and worked the runway at the Marc Jacobs, Diane Von Furstenberg and Tommy Hilfiger shows.

"Fashion Week was awesome!," the 58-year-old said. "It was so exciting to see Kendall really come into her own and work so hard. I didn't really realize before she started on this journey how much work it really takes to do what she's doing, and I'm really proud of her."

"You know, I've read a lot of her interviews, and I know her," the 33-year-old added. "I remember when she started and she's come a long way already. She's doing so well already. It's inspiring for everybody!"
