Kim Kardashian recently stole the show in Paris. She didn’t just walk the runway; she brought a piece of Hollywood history with her. The star made a grand entrance at Balenciaga’s latest haute couture event.
The fashion world buzzed as Kardashian, 44, showcased a special tribute to the late Elizabeth Taylor. Taylor, who passed away in 2011 at 79, was known for her love of sparkling jewels. Kardashian honored her by wearing Taylor’s very own diamond drop earrings. These historic pieces added incredible shine to her look. She paired them with even more diamonds from Lorraine Schwartz, including a long necklace and a matching choker.
Kardashian’s outfit for the Paris show was a vision in champagne silk. It featured a sleek slip dress with thin straps and delicate lace details. The top fit snugly, and the skirt flowed down in a column shape. To top it off, she draped a fur coat casually over her shoulders. Glittering pointed heels completed the glamorous ensemble.
The Beauty Details
Bringing her look to life was her trusted glam team. Makeup artist Ariel Tejada worked his magic on her face. Her cheeks had a rosy glow, and her brows were perfectly shaped. Bronze eyeshadow blended around her eyes, with a hint of brown underneath. A touch of mascara and pink lips lined with a darker shade finished her makeup.
Hairstylist Chris Appleton gave Kardashian a classic hairstyle. Her brown hair was parted to the side. It flowed into soft, old Hollywood-style curls. A few strands framed her face, resting gently on her forehead.
This Balenciaga show was a significant event for another reason. It marked the final collection from creative director Demna Gvasalia, 44. Kardashian, a longtime fan of the brand, felt the moment deeply. She shared on Instagram, "Walking in Demna’s last Balenciaga Couture show wearing Lorraine Schwartz jewels and Elizabeth Taylor’s own diamond earrings from her private collection."
She also posted a sweet photo with Gvasalia. The two embraced, their faces close, blowing kisses to the camera. It was a clear sign of their close bond.
Friends and fans quickly showered the star of The Kardashians with praise. Olivia Pierson simply wrote, "GORG ❤️❤️." La La Anthony added, "Love 😍😍😍😍." Makeup artist Ash K Holm gushed, "Ethereal goddess of my dreams ☁️." It was clear Kim’s Hollywood homage hit all the right notes.
