Kim Kardashian is back on the runway.
On Wednesday, July 9, the reality star and mogul, 44, made an appearance in Balenciaga’s fall 2025 couture show during Paris Fashion Week. The show marked Balenciaga creative director Demna Gvasalia’s last with the fashion house.
Kardashian hit the catwalk in a figure-hugging ivory midi dress with lace trim, which she wore with a matching fur coat draped around her shoulders. Her hair was styled into a flippy, side-parted bob that covered part of her face.
The look was amplified with dazzling diamonds courtesy of Lorraine Schwartz. Per a press release from the jewelry brand, Kardashian’s dress was an ode to the one Elizabeth Taylor wore in the 1958 film Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. The star wore a dazzling array of diamonds, including the Mike Todd Diamond Pendant Earrings, which were once worn by Taylor and purchased at auction by Lorraine Schwartz.
Kardashian’s jewels also featured two Lorraine Schwartz necklaces with approximately 250 carats of diamonds. The rest of the models sported custom jewelry looks using over 1,000 carats of white diamonds, Colombian emeralds, padparadsha sapphires, pink diamonds and canary yellow diamonds.
