Kim Kardashian’s latest wardrobe decision has sparked debate and a flurry of similarities. On August 20, Kardashian, 43, was photographed wearing an eye-catching all-white outfit that showcased her frosty blonde hair and included a plunging bodysuit, matching tights, and heeled flip-flops. The outfit soon gained notice due to its resemblance to something that Kanye West’s ex-wife, Bianca Censori, had on.
The 29-year-old Censori had previously gone out in public with West in Santa Barbara, California, wearing an identical ensemble. Social media was used by fans to voice their thoughts, with some accusing Kardashian of making fun of Censori. Remarks like “It’s giving Censori” and “Kim what are you doing” suggested that Kardashian was clearly teasing her current boyfriend, her ex-husband. Some thought the appearance was ugly, responding with questions like “Kim, why? “This ain’t it” and “You can wear anything, but not this.”
Despite the fashion debate, a source close to Kardashian revealed that her feelings towards Censori are more compassionate than confrontational. The insider shared that Kardashian “genuinely pities” Censori, understanding the challenges of being involved with West. “She knows firsthand how controlling Kanye is, and how difficult it is to get away from him once he has you hooked,” the source said. Kardashian reportedly feels sympathy for Censori, who appears to be under significant influence from West, as evidenced by her public appearances in revealing outfits.
The insider added that Kardashian believes Censori may have been drawn to West by the allure of fame and the lifestyle he offers, only to find herself in a difficult situation. “She can only imagine how the poor girl was lured in by the limelight and the lifestyle,” the source noted.
Further insight into West and Censori’s relationship dynamics came from Milo Yiannopoulos, a former staffer of West, who commented on August 8. Yiannopoulos described Censori as a “wonderful person” who is caught in a challenging position. He suggested that she loves her husband but is also a “traditionally-minded wife” who feels obligated to honor and defer to him. Yiannopoulos called for prayers for both West and Censori, acknowledging the complexity of their relationship.
As Kardashian’s outfit continues to make headlines, the ongoing discourse reflects broader conversations about personal style, public perception, and the dynamics between Kardashian, Censori, and West.
