What’s behind Kim Kardashian’s Puzzling Look

In Paris, on Tuesday, June 20th, the first fashion show by Pharrell Williams for Louis Vuitton took place. On this occasion, the reality TV star paid homage to the signature pixel pattern of this collection. However, his boldness has disconcerted observers.

On Tuesday, June 20th, all eyes were on Pharrell Williams. The new artistic director of Louis Vuitton's men's line presented his first fashion show on the Pont-Neuf in Paris, in front of 1750 guests, including an astonishing list of celebrities. Among them was Kim Kardashian. The reality TV star took a seat in the front row of the show, dressed in a camouflage outfit with a pixelated pattern, from the latest Louis Vuitton Men's collection. However, her presence, and her appearance, sparked strong reactions from some observers on social media.

On that evening, Kim Kardashian specifically wore a sports bra and leggings in shades of green and brown. The pixel pattern covering her outfit is a nod to Louis Vuitton's signature checkered design. She completed the ensemble with a long black coat, a furry checkered fanny pack, and a pair of transparent high-heeled pumps. While some internet users applaud the boldness, others question it. "I don't think there's an issue with the outfit, but I think Kim needs to find a new stylist," quipped a Twitter user, who believes that she has chosen a poor combination of accessories.

A Video Game Character?

The pixel pattern also surprised some, evoking the world of video games. "Why does it look like a Minecraft character?" pondered a commentator on Twitter, referring to the popular game where players place blocks to create adventures. Problematic comments about Kim Kardashian's appearance followed, comparing her to a wax statue. These not-so-innocuous criticisms could well affect the main person involved, as noted by Page Six. Last year, The Kardashians star revealed on her show the difficulties she faced in embracing her choices, particularly in fashion, since her divorce from rapper Kanye West in 2021. "I had gotten to the point where I would ask him for his advice on everything, even what to wear," she explained at the time, referring to her marriage.
