Despite all the controversy surrounding her, Paris has managed to stay strong and true to herself.

For example, at the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Michael Jackson’s only daughter cleaned up nicely and showed her glamorous side in a drapey, orange-satin Vivienne Westwood gown.

Clearing the Air: What Really Happened in March 2019

Back in March 2019, Paris Jackson publicly slammed media outlets that falsely reported she had attempted suicide. In a now-deleted tweet, she wrote: “fuck you, you fucking liars.”

While it’s true that an ambulance transported Paris to the hospital at around 7:30 a.m. on a Saturday, sources clarified that it was due to an accident — not a suicide attempt, as some outlets had incorrectly claimed.

The inaccurate sources claimed that Paris’ attempt to kill herself was in response to the child molestation allegations made against her father, Michael Jackson, in the HBO documentary “Leaving Neverland.”

According to a source, Paris was released after her brief hospitalization and “is currently resting at home and doing fine.”

Her Hearts On Fire necklace, Jimmy Choo ‘Celeste’ velvet clutch, and Christian Louboutin’s 514’gold-satin sandals were stunning, but her many interesting tattoos stole the show.

Despite the intense media scrutiny, Paris has continued to express herself through bold fashion choices that reflect her free-spirited personality. One standout moment came at a high-profile event where she embraced her signature bohemian aesthetic with confidence and flair.

At the 2018 LACMA Art + Film Gala presented by Gucci, the then-20-year-old model selected a vintagey, old-white long-sleeved pleated gown out of all the Gucci designs she could’ve chosen to wear.

The Bold Appeal of Gucci’s Flashtrek Sneakers

The Gucci Flashtrek sneakers are a bold and polarizing product of the bulky dad shoe trend. While their chunky silhouette divided fashion critics, the addition of removable crystal straps pushed the design further into eccentric territory—earning both admiration and critique.

Designed by Gucci under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele, the luxury sneakers were introduced as part of the Fall/Winter 2018 collection. They are known for their bold, maximalist style, blending high fashion with streetwear influences.
