Kim Kardashian is a regular at Paris Fashion Week. While in the city, she constantly makes headlines from going platinum blonde to wearing an all-leopard outfit.
Of course, she causes quite a frenzy no matter what she does. Articles have been written about her earning a billionaire status, fronting a Balenciaga ad, wearing a controversial dress, or simply bearing the Kardashian name.
But the media’s favorite things to feast on are the ones she shares herself. Like posting her Instagram debut with new beau Pete Davidson, for instance. She also talked about getting Pete’s number and voluntarily shared TMI about their sex life.
Recently, she even caused a stir just for talking about convenience store ice cream (which, let’s face it, is still about their sex life).
This time, however, the business mogul stole the show with daughter North West during Paris Haute Couture Week.

Nine-year-old North West is no stranger to fashion shows and attended her first-ever Paris Fashion Week as a 15-month-old baby.
She even stole the spotlight at her dad’s own Yeezy Season 8 fashion show. Kim also shared a photo of baby North posing in her mom’s Balenciaga thigh-high boots like a true pint-sized fashionista.
“North is very opinionated when it comes to what I’m wearing. She’ll always complain when I’m wearing too much black,” Kim Kardashian revealed during Vogue’s Forces of Fashion conference in March 2022.
“I showed up at her school on Valentine’s Day wearing head-to-toe pink, and she got so excited she ran over and hugged me,” the reality star added. “[Of course] she opened my coat, saw the black lining, and says, ‘Mom, you’re still wearing black.’”

The mother-and-daughter duo showed their support for Olivier Rousteing’s history-making turn as a guest designer for Jean Paul Gaultier’s couture collection.
They arrived in coordinating mommy and me outfits with added touches of a steampunk style.
The young fashionista wore a pinstriped set that featured a vest and a pleated skirt. North styled it with a crisp white shirt, a black tie, a pinstriped beret, and black knee-high combat boots.

Meanwhile, Kim wore an exclusive look from Olivier Rousteing’s couture collection. It’s reminiscent of the scandalous outfit that pop icon Madonna wore with Jean Paul Gaultier at the 1992 amfAR Gala.

But while Madonna bared her breasts, Kim opted for a tamer version that displayed her cleavage instead. Her black pinstriped dress featured beige nipple cups and showed off her slender figure.
She strutted in black pointy-toe platform shoes with contrasting silver metal platforms and towering heels. Kim also wore a silver tin-can choker and a matching silver cuff on each wrist.

North’s hair was styled in long braids, while Kim kept her platinum blonde locks loose and slightly tousled.
The pair also wore matching sunglasses and faux nose rings attached to silver chains that connect to their ears.

A few days earlier, Kim Kardashian walked the runway for Balenciaga’s Haute Couture presentation. She joined Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman and Grammy winner Dua Lipa to boost the hype for the show.

It looks like there’s no stopping Kim Kardashian from taking over every industry she sets her eyes on. But North West isn’t too far behind, as she has cemented her status as a rising fashion star.
