Kim Kardashian drew mixed reactions online after being criticized for her outfit at the star-studded Gucci 2027 Cruise Collection Show in New York City over the weekend.
The 45-year-old reality star and SKIMS founder attended the high-profile fashion event in Times Square alongside industry heavyweights including Anna Wintour and Mariah Carey. She later took a front-row seat next to Wintour, Carey, Shawn Mendes, and Francesca Bellettini.
For the occasion, Kardashian wore fitted black leggings paired with a faded green jacket trimmed with brown faux fur. She completed the look with closed-toe black heels and a small black handbag, while styling her hair in a sleek pulled-back updo. Diamond earrings and a statement silver necklace added a polished touch.
A video of her arrival, posted to Vogue’s Instagram, quickly sparked debate in the comments section, with some users questioning the practicality of her outfit given New York’s warm weather. Critics called the look “ridiculous,” pointing out that temperatures were in the 70s and 80s, and suggesting the heavy outerwear felt out of place. Others made lighthearted remarks comparing the jacket to fast-fashion items, while some simply expressed confusion over the styling choice.
Despite the backlash, not all reactions were negative. Several fans praised Kardashian’s appearance, complimenting her overall look and confident presence at the event.
The front row itself was packed with major names. Anna Wintour arrived in a vibrant red dress layered under a matching leather jacket, while her daughter Bee Shaffer accompanied her in a patterned black ensemble. Their appearance came shortly after reports of Shaffer’s split from her husband, Francesco Carrozzini, after nearly eight years of marriage.
Held in the heart of Times Square, the Gucci show brought together fashion icons, musicians, and celebrities, making it one of the most talked-about runway events of the season.
