The SKIMS founder explained why things will be lowkey this year and how the family still plans on “dressing up to the nines”
Kim Kardashian is sharing some insight into her family’s holiday plans — and why one family tradition might look a bit different in 2024.
The entrepreneur, 44, revealed in an interview with Vogue at the grand opening of her New York City SKIMS store on Thursday, Dec. 12 that the Kardashian-Jenner family is eyeing a “really lowkey” gathering on Dec. 24 this time around, rather than their usual lavish annual Christmas Eve get-together.
“Just because we have a lot of construction going on, so we’re doing a really family intimate one that I’m really excited about,” Kardashian said.
As Kardashian detailed, her family has had “some legendary Christmas Eve parties” over the years — from an estimated $1.3 million winter wonderland in 2018 to a 2022 get-together that featured a performance from Sia to the family’s latest Christmas Eve bash, which featured an apparent ski-lodge theme.
“They’re just beginning,” Kardashian told Vogue of the headline-making festivities. “Our kids love them and now all their friends want to come. It’s such a fun tradition.”
Historically held at Kris Jenner’s Calabasas mansion and getting its start in 1978, the annual Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve party has since transformed into a major get-together that’s held at the homes of other family members, including that of Kourtney Kardashian Barker.
Other famous faces have made appearances at the gathering, with John Legend performing some holiday tunes back in 2018, and additional attendees over the years having included Drake, Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Lopez.Back in November, Kim began preparing for the holidays when she showed off her faux snow-covered Christmas tree on her Instagram Stories. The towering decoration appeared to reach the second floor of Kim’s California home, and she soundtracked a photo of the decor to the seasonal song “Twinkling Lights” by Auni.
