Ryan Murphy’s latest legal drama, All’s Fair, has sparked endless conversations — and not just for its storylines. Front and center is Kim Kardashian, stepping into the role of Allura Grant, a high-powered, high-fashion divorce attorney whose wardrobe has become the show’s most electrifying subplot. While costume designer Paula Bradley shaped the series as a whole, it was stylist Soki Mak who crafted the unforgettable fashion identity of Kardashian’s character — a visual language that’s equal parts futuristic, archival, and unapologetically camp.
What makes Mak’s rise remarkable is how it began: with a single Instagram DM.
A DM That Changed Everything
At a time when she was losing hope about working in the United States, Mak received a message from Kardashian herself. What began as a test shoot for social media quickly became a creative partnership built on trust, risk-taking, and a shared love for archival fashion. After several successful collaborations, Kardashian invited Mak to consult on a Financial Times shoot — and casually revealed a new project.
“She said, ‘I’ve got this job… it’s a show… and I’d love for you to do it,’” Mak recalled. The next day, she learned Kardashian wasn’t filming reality TV — she was stepping into a scripted role.
Building Allura Grant From Scratch
Mak’s only initial description was simple: “She plays a divorce lawyer.”
But the stylist envisioned something far more powerful. Drawing from couture archives, high-drama silhouettes, and the intensity of the character’s world, Mak curated a wardrobe meant to redefine what a TV lawyer could look like. Vintage John Galliano, Mugler, Donna Karan, Roberto Cavalli, Jean Paul Gaultier — no designer was too daring.
Mak and Kardashian worked closely, testing glam, shaping silhouettes, and submitting mood boards to Murphy. Their approach was fearless. Some episodes featured ten outfits in a single hour, each one bolder than the last.
Walking the Line Between Kim and Allura
Kardashian’s personal style is iconic, but Mak ensured Allura Grant existed as a distinct persona — an amplified, avant-garde version of what power dressing could be.
“There is definitely a separation,” Mak explains. “This is Kim ten years in the future… if she were a fictional, ultra-elite divorce lawyer.”
Allura’s looks are sharp, sculptural, and confidently theatrical — a fantasy rooted in fashion history. And Kardashian fully committed to this vision, allowing Mak to push boundaries beyond red-carpet conventions.
The Press Tour: A Story of Its Own
Beyond the show, Mak and Kardashian created runway-level moments during the press tour. Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Dilara Findikoglu — each look told a story of craftsmanship, drama, and British couture influence. Fittings would stretch late into the night, evolving in real time based on mood and intuition.
“It’s not as organized as people think,” Mak admits. “It’s creative chaos… and we thrive off it.”
Kim Kardashian as a Creative Force
Mak praises Kardashian not just as a client, but as an artist.
“She allows you to create, and she never tries to control it,” she says. “She wants something new — something not obvious.”
From discovering fresh talent to embracing untested ideas, Kardashian’s approach helped elevate Mak’s work onto an international stage.
Would She Return for Season Two?
In the whirlwind of production, Mak might have hesitated. But now?
“Absolutely, yes.”
