Kim Kardashian faces backlash for wearing Janet Jackson’s iconic 1993 outfit to a concert, sparking a heated debate among fashion enthusiasts and fans
Kim Kardashian, ever the fashion provocateur, has once again stirred the pot by stepping out in Janet Jackson’s iconic 1993 outfit.
Originally purchased for $25,000 in 2021, Kardashian waited three years to publicly don the custom-made black crop top and black suede pants, featuring lace-up fronts and fringed sides. Her timing coincided with attending Jackson’s concert, adding a layer of homage to her choice.
However, the move has ignited a wave of criticism on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), with many fans feeling that such a historic ensemble belongs in a museum rather than being worn by the reality star.
Critics labeled the act as “cringe” and lamented the trend of buying historical pieces merely for personal enjoyment. Despite the backlash, Kardashian’s bold fashion statement underscores her deep appreciation for the cultural milestones in fashion history.
