Supermodel and St. Louisan Karlie Kloss honored with downtown street dedication
ST. LOUIS – Two icons of the fashion industry paid a visit to St. Louis on Monday, as a St. Louis native was honored with a special dedication ceremony, followed by a special guest speaker’s appearance at Washington University.
Crowds gathered for the big unveiling of Karlie Kloss Way in downtown St. Louis at Washington Avenue and 15th Street.
“I am so beyond honored and in disbelief about this moment today,” Karlie Kloss said. “I can’t believe that Karlie Kloss Way is real. St. Louis is a huge part of who I am. My entire family lives here and has for so many generations so this is such a special honor and really cool (full) circle moment.”
