Overview

  • Kardashian surprised the audience on July 9 with a guest appearance in Demna’s final fall 2025 couture show, wearing Elizabeth Taylor’s diamond pendant earrings on loan from jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.
  • A day earlier she visited Balenciaga’s Paris headquarters in a head-to-toe hot pink ensemble complete with Demna’s signature skintight pantaboots.
  • Officially named Balenciaga ambassador in January 2024, Kardashian has been a consistent muse for Demna, integrating pantaboots and Barbiecore pink looks into high-profile events.
  • The pantaboot silhouette, introduced in Demna’s Spring 2017 womenswear collection, became a hallmark of both his designs and Kardashian’s personal style across varied colors and materials.
  • As Demna prepares to assume creative control at Gucci, observers are watching whether Kardashian’s ambassadorship will follow him or take a new direction within the fashion house.
