Kim Kardashian Revives Latex Glam in Paris with a Bold Balenciaga Statement
Paris Fashion Week reached a peak moment of spectacle when Kim Kardashian stepped out in a striking all-white latex ensemble for Balenciaga’s latest runway show. At 44, the global style icon continues to make waves with bold fashion choices that keep all eyes on her.
Her look featured Balenciaga’s signature high-heeled boots, oversized dark sunglasses, and a playful nod to early 2000s fashion with neatly clipped hair accessories. This jaw-dropping moment came just a day after she turned heads in a pink latex outfit, marking two stunning back-to-back appearances in the French capital.
Kim kept a composed, serious expression throughout, contrasting with the more playful persona fans are used to seeing on-screen. She was joined at the Balenciaga event by a high-wattage guest list that included Katy Perry, Cardi B, Nicole Kidman, Lauren Sanchez, and Salma Hayek.
Balenciaga’s return to the spotlight hasn’t been without challenges. The brand faced widespread backlash in 2022 over an ad campaign that drew criticism for its use of inappropriate props involving children. At the time, Kim publicly condemned the campaign, saying she was “shaken and disgusted,” though she stopped short of severing ties with the fashion house.
“Balenciaga has played a key role in some of my most iconic fashion moments,” Kim said. “I admire their craftsmanship, their bold take on modern design, and the relationship we’ve built over time—one rooted in trust and shared vision. I’m excited for what’s ahead.”
As Paris Fashion Week continues, Kim Kardashian proves once again that she's not just following trends — she's setting them. Whether seen as a redemption arc, a strategic move, or simply another standout fashion moment, Kim’s Balenciaga appearance has made one thing clear: she’s still a headline-maker, and she’s not slowing down anytime soon.
