Kim Kardashian fans react to the reality tv star's new style after cutting out Balenciaga because of their controversial holiday campaign.
Kim Kardashian has switched up her fashion sense after the Balenciaga
scandal, and The Kardashians fans have plenty of opinions. At the beginning
of 2022, Kim Kardashian starred in a Balenciaga campaign and was named the
company's brand ambassador. She spent recent years sporting the brand,
including what fans refer to as 'poots,' which appear to be pants and boots
connected to each other. Cut to November 2022, and Kim put out a statement
condemning the brand's bizarre holiday campaign, which featured children
holding teddy bears in bondage outfits and a child pornography court
document hidden in one of the images.
Since then, Kim has had to reinvent her style, and fans haven't
had many nice things to say. Reddit user roxy7- shared some recent photos of
Kim, writing, "I'm guessing this is what Kim's fashion is gonna be the next
couple of months after Balanciaga and the neverending poots. Don't know
which is worse." In the photos, Kim is seen wearing baggy pants and cropped
t-shirts. In many of the images, Kim's pants are black leather, and she
pairs them with oversized sunglasses. "What's funny to me is she dresses
like she's kylie or kendall's age, and both of those girls have wayyy better
taste in fashion, yet she's the richer one," one fan wrote. Another said if
Kim is lost with how to dress, then she should look up style trends on
Pinterest.
Kim Kardashian Struggled With Fashion After Divorcing Kanye
West
One fan questioned why Kim always seems to need a uniform, meaning a style that she is known for and wears on a regular basis. "She thinks she's Zuckerberg or Gates," a fan responded. On The Kardashians, Kim discussed that after divorcing Kanye West, she had a difficult time developing a style for herself. Kanye was a massive influence on Kim's fashion sense and broke down doors for Kim to be taken seriously in the fashion industry. During The Kardashians season 2, Kim read some of the mean texts Kanye sent to her regarding the outfits she wore to Paris fashion week. In one message, he told Kim he would rather go to jail than wear one of the looks she wore. Luckily Kim laughed it off.
It's understandable why Kim might be struggling to find a new
style after the Balenciaga controversy. The star had a hard time reinventing
herself after her divorce, so she's probably having just as hard of a time
now, especially because the style reinvention had to happen so quickly. Fans
may not love Kim's new look, but they weren't big fans of her Balenciaga
styles either. One of their favorite pastimes is analyzing the Kardashians'
styles, so it's no surprise they're already examining Kim's latest looks.
While fans disapprove, there's nothing wrong with experimenting with a new
style. In fact, it could actually be empowering.
With all the
access Kim and her family have to top stylists and fashion designers, she's
bound to figure something out soon. She may have become known for her
Balenciaga looks, but now is the perfect time for Kim to introduce a new
style. Fans have had plenty of complaints about The Kardashians and hope the
family will switch the format of the series. Kim's new fashion era could go
hand in hand with a possible reinvention of the Hulu series for season 3. On
the other hand, Kim might love her new fashion sense and decide to stay with
it a little longer despite what fans think.
