Kim Kardashian wears two jeweled headpieces at 46th birthday dinner

The dresses are Paco Rabanne chainmail pieces from the label's nineteen ninety-five collection, and she reportedly arrived in green and left in red; the headpieces got equal billing.

What BBN said about it

  1. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorKim Kardashian wore two jeweled headpieces to her forty-sixth birthday dinner at Baldi, inside the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, E! News reports.

  2. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentTwo looks, one dinner. She walked in wearing the green dress and was seen leaving in the red one.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call that a staggered release. The green had a strong opening, the red is the sequel, and both come with a crown.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA sequel mid-dinner is the smartest content strategy at that table. Nobody watches the same dress twice.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThat's unfair, Kenji. They're chainmail minidresses from Paco Rabanne's fall and winter nineteen ninety-five collection, with matching beaded headpieces. That's archival.

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo the dresses are thirty years old and still had the better night than most people's.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe pieces were picked by the label's new creative director, Olivier Rousteing, and styled by Law Roach.

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHer family was there too, Kris, Kourtney, Khloé and Kylie. I assume the headpieces each had a seat.

  9. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentKendall wasn't, and neither was Lewis Hamilton, who was preparing for the Grand Prix in Austin.

  10. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorVerdict: ten out of ten, with two crowns. The green dress has been very quiet since the switch.
