Kim Kardashian finally wore Lady D’s crucifix (but not in public)

Kim Kardashian has a great passion for memorabilia belonging to celebrities of the past (it’s hard not to think of Marilyn Monroe’s iconic dress worn at the 2022 Met Gala). A real «fetish» which, more than a year ago, led her to grab a unique piece for 163,800 pounds (approximately €190,000): the precious Attallah cross belonged to Lady D.

Immediately after purchasing the pendant – consisting of 11 amethysts square cut and enriched with brilliant cut diamonds, for a total of approx 5.25 carats – the thought flew towards the Met Gala 2023. Many, in fact, were convinced that the super influencer, for the event whose theme was focused on Karl Lagerfeld, was planning a look inspired by Diana Spencer.

However, the expectations were not met because the founder of SKIMS she showed up wearing a designer beaded outfit Schiaparelli Haute Couture. So, the question arises spontaneously: what happened to the sparkling jewel? A question answered byimage director Of Maison Margiela Alexis Roche (companion of the creative director John Galliano) with an image shared on Instagram to wish the influencer a birthday.

In particular, in the photo you can see it Kim Kardashian while sporting a long dark dress in tulle with a mermaid silhouette, characterized by showy drapes and a neckline on which the crucifix created in the 1920s by the jewelers of Garrard court.

A look that, in fact, was not worn either for the 2023 Met Gala nor for other public events, even if it seems that Kim had thought of wearing it for the 2024 edition of the Metropolitan Museum’s grand gala, only to then change her mind and opt for another dress Maison Margiela Artisanal by John Galliano, with a very tight bodice and full of floral details. In short, perhaps for Kim Kardashian the right time to show off this jewel has not yet arrived, but it will certainly find the right event to do so. On the other hand, she certainly has no shortage of opportunities.
