What's happened to Kim Kardashian? #CarryGobySeanKellz #FutureGroupNG via @i_amreginaldjr

Kanye West's fiancée looks totally different to when she burst onto the scene eight years ago, we get our experts to analyse her style evolution

KIM Kardashian has been in the public consciousness for eight years, and in that time, the reality star has gone through many changes.
When the 33-year-old first burst on the scene hanging out with pals Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, the star favoured designer jeans, loose tops, and tight-fitting short dresses which accentuated her slim figure.
She also had a love for heavy makeup and facially looked quite different to the refined fashion icon we see today.
Recently North West's mum has stepped away from flesh-flashing outfits, instead opting for heavy velour and brocaded long dresses which cover her from head to toe.

And even the famous hair extensions have gone.
Style expert Nick Ede, cosmetic surgeon Alex Karidis and Anne-Marie Gillett, Non-Surgical Director at Transform Medical Group have shared their expert opinions on exactly how Kim's altered her face and clothing exclusively with OK! Online.

Nick explained: "She has changed completely. She has still got a gorgeous face but unfortunately she is listening to other people."
"Kim has Persian roots and it looks like her fiancé Kanye West has been watching the Princess of Persia and thought I am going to make her into a caricature Persian princess," Nick continued.
"The guy might be great at music but he is no good at fashion," he claimed.

Nick added: "He is not putting her in flattering clothing and what is interesting is when he puts her in these dresses she is totally covered up - there is not a single inch of flesh - you don't see boobs, or legs - not even some forearm!"
Meanwhile, Anne-Marie Gillett suggested Kim has been hitting the Botox.
"Looking at the current images of Kim Kardashian in comparison to the ones from 2006, it appears to me that her now shiny, line-free, elongated forehead is showing classic telltale signs of recent and long term Botox use."

Nick says: "Kim used to be a frivolous Hollywood girl that wore Hollywood-style clothing like Paris Hilton."

Nick says: "This was her carefree look. Now she has become a fashion icon but unlike Victoria Beckham who is getting it right all the time she unfortunately listens to other people."

Alex Karidis says: "In this picture you would not expect her to have had surgery on her face because we don't touch faces if they're in their 20s.
"Faces do change with time and it is likely she has lost puppy fat around the cheeks which gives definition but that happens naturally. She has a dark olive-skinned complexion which keeps the skin well at that age."

Nick says: "In this picture of them out together she looks like she is in a braille dress the only way you could think that would be nice was if you had no eyes. It's disgusting."

Nick says: "Velour must be on his mind all the time it is ridiculous. The hair's a bit shorter and she's not wearing as much make up before which I like."

"This highlights her in the best possible way," says Nick. "That white jacket is perfect for her because it totally elongates her body and it doesn't make her look short or stumpy. her thighs look fantastic, you can't even imagine she has got a huge arse because every element is brilliant. Styling to perfection."

It's likely the mum-of-one has had botox [Splash]

Anne-Marie warned: "Kim is in danger of looking over done, with her skin beginning to look too taut and shiny. Regular use of Botox, with what appears to also be work on the eyebrows, and tidying up of her hair, gives the appearance of a higher hairline."

Anne-Marie said this picture shows the difference in Kim's nose.
"I would say that she seems to have undergone a subtle rhinoplasty, which has thinned out her nose - the result of which is great and really suits her face."
And Dr Karidis adds: "The top lip has had enhancement to bring it in line with the slightly larger bottom lip she has."
