Born in Israel, she went to high school in the US, studied design in Italy, and interned with celebrity stylists before working for Kanye West’s team

Kim Kardashian’s friend and long-time stylist Danielle Levi was recently spotted in Paris alongside the Skims mogul and her 13-year-old daughter North West, whom she shares with her ex, Kanye West.
In the city for Paris Fashion Week, Kardashian and her daughter once again sent the media into a frenzy as articles about the tween’s edgy aesthetic made headlines. Ahead of the Vetements menswear show, West stepped out sporting several faux piercings, including one on her nose bridge, an anti-eyebrow piercing that sits under the eye, and two piercings on her top lip. The mother-daughter duo previously received criticism from fans when it was revealed that the “Piercing on My Hand” singer had got microdermal piercings on her hand when she was only 12.

Danielle Levi was born in Israel and grew up in Jerusalem. She later immigrated to the US for high school. She has previously spoken openly about feeling out-of-place when she first moved to the States, turning to fashion in an effort to fit in.

“When I moved to America as a teen, high school was a culture shock,” She told Forbes in 2022. “I was wearing modest, baggy linen clothing and everyone was dressed in Abercrombie. I didn’t fit in at all. I felt like an outcast and just wanted to connect with other kids and feel like I belonged, so I started to study fashion, read magazines, watch music videos. Eventually, this became my career.”

She worked for Rihanna’s former stylist
