Just take her to Wet Seal next time.
Kim Kardashian posted a few outtakes from her recent trip to Paris on Friday, and fans were left baffled by one particularly head-scratching outfit that featured an early-aughts trend no one seems to miss.
“Paris Files,” the Skims founder, 43, captioned a series of throwback photos presumably from last month’s Paris Fashion Week, with one featuring the star wearing layers upon layers of Balenciaga clothing including at least five shirts — including a leopard-printed tank top, black lace camisole and dark gray long-sleeved shirt — and thigh-high black lace socks over white leggings.

She finished the layered look with an oversized Balenciaga tote featuring oodles of charms, including a chain reading (what else?) “Kim” in bedazzled letters.
Fans were quick to leave comments expressing their disdain for the mismatched look.
“5th pictures looks like when you were a kid and use to put everyone on in your wardrobe ,” one person said. “Kim what you doin wit all them camis,” another quipped.
A third bemoaned, “Not the layered spaghetti strap tanks again ” and a fourth said, “Bringing back the 2000s i see .”
While plenty of people compared her to ex-husband Kanye West’s new wife, Bianca Censori — who wore a coquettish pink bow-trimmed camisole with white lace tights while at West’s “Vultures” album listening party in San Francisco earlier this week — others called the outfit “ridiculous.”
“It’s giving 2006 middle school vibes,” someone opined, while another went so far as to call Kardashian the “worst dresser ever.”

Other photos of Kardashian in the carousel of images showed her less puzzling outfits, including a long gray coat and a brown fur jacket — both worn over nothing but sheer tights, à la Censori.

The pics seemed to be snapped in the same hotel room as Kardashian’s posts from earlier this month ahead of the Balenciaga fashion show, to which she wore a black lace gown with an open back. While she gave a behind-the-scenes look at the outfit on Instagram, the mom of four added one key accessory when she got to the runway: an oversized tag purposefully placed to appear like a fashion faux pas.
She also turned heads in a waist-whittling Mugler corset on the same trip.
Kardashian had another high-fashion outing over the weekend, making an appearance at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on Sunday night in another head-turning Balenciaga look. This time, the reality star went for a simple geometrical gown — though she couldn’t escape the memes as fans compared her to a fanciful folded napkin.
One thing about Kim: She continues to push fashion limits
