The Kardashians haven’t always been as perfectly preened and flawless as they are now.

Like us mere mortals, it turns out that they’ve all made some pretty questionable fashion faux pas.

As Kim prepares to celebrate her 36th birthday, she allowed best friend Allison Statter to share some pictures from a birthday bash 20 years ago.

The photos appeared on Kim’s app and feature braces, lined lips and a particularly impressive white power suit.

With the pictures, Statter shared her memories of the sweet sixteenth.

“It’s hard to believe that 20 years ago, Kim and I were turning 16 and learning how to drive,” Statter wrote. “I remember Kim’s Sweet 16 so well. Aunt Kris and Uncle Robert hosted a really nice lunch for Kim with all of her friends and family at a popular Italian restaurant called Cicada. We would all do our Sweet 16s at Cicada! How cool that Kim is wearing a vintage slip dress, LOL! Kim was always a tad bit younger than us, with her birthday being in October, so we were all ready for her to turn 16 so we didn’t have to drive her everywhere anymore!”

“Kim didn’t think she was getting a car because her dad had convinced her she didn’t need her own car at 16, so when Kim walked outside after lunch to her new white BMW in the parking lot, she was SO surprised!!” Statter continued.

“As Kim and I have grown up together and gone through some life milestones—like getting our first jobs, moving into our first apartments, getting married and having babies—it’s nice to look back at all of our memories together. Her 16th birthday will always be a special memory because it was at a time in our lives where we didn’t have as much responsibility. We enjoyed every moment of being 16 together!” Statter writes.
