Kim Kardashian referenced two vintage Chanel looks at the fashion house’s pre-Oscar dinner on Saturday in Beverly Hills.
The reality star and entrepreneur modeled a black corset dress with a tiered skirt from Chanel’s fall 1992 couture collection. Featuring a pleated mesh underlay, the design was originally modeled by Helena Christensen on the runway. Kardashian accessorized with diamond studs, velvet pumps and a miniature quilted handbag.
Stylist Dani Levi curated the Skims founder’s look for the occasion. Kardashian’s longtime hairdresser, Chris Appleton, styled her dark tresses in a bow-laden ponytail, a nod to Claudia Schiffer’s hair at Chanel’s fall 1995 couture presentation.
As for Kardashian’s makeup, she wore brown eyeshadow, rosy blush and a powder pink lip, done by artist Rokael Lizama.

Dare I say more than great, we make it f–king spectacular,” James said at the gala. “We are nobody’s DEI hire. This country in its best form is a product of each of our beautiful and individual contributions. Never, ever, ever let another person tell you otherwise. We belong, you belong, all of our children belong here.”
