Kim Kardashian and Balenciaga are a match made in heaven, with Kardashian recently named the face of the brand and strutting down the runway at Paris Haute Couture Week. Her most recent Balenciaga look, however, is a slight departure from her usual pantaleggings and catsuits. In an Instagram reel, the Skims founder posted herself wearing a skintight one shoulder mini dress, highlighting her curves and showing off the pink camo look from every angle. The print of the dress immediately brought to mind nostalgic “Cadet Kelly” vibes, but Kardashian felt the outfit looked more Mattel than Disney, writing, “Balenci Barbie 💕” in her caption.
Playing off the Barbiecore vibes, Kardashian wore her bleach blond hair in a dramatic updo with the front pieces curled. She accessorized with a black micro-purse, and in true Barbie fashion, wore heels with a transparent plastic strap. Fundamentally, the Barbiecore trend is all about capitalizing on Barbie’s famously over-the-top, monochromatic, and very pink aesthetic. Although this may not be the most dramatic look we’ve seen from Kardashian, especially by Balenciaga’s standards, if she was going for Barbie IRL, she definitely nailed it. Check out the video below for more details of the full Balenci fit, and see what you think about this pink camo Barbie look.
