Kim Kardashian recently posted several glitzy pictures from her vacation to Mumbai, India, to Instagram. The 43-year-old reality personality was there at the $600 million nuptials of Anant Ambani, the son of Mukesh Ambani, the richest man in India, and Radhika Merchant. Khloe Kardashian, her sister, was with her.
Kim looked stunning in a range of attire throughout the nuptial celebrations. One particularly striking ensemble included a platform-heeled blue and gold corset gown with a bold thigh-high split. According to Page Six, she added even more jewelry, a stunning necklace made of 170 carats of diamonds. This was noteworthy in light of her earlier promise to refrain from showing off her gems on social media following the 2016 Paris robbery.
On the other hand, Kim’s wardrobe selections caused controversy. During the wedding, she donned four different dresses, two of which were brilliant red. Indian brides are usually the ones who wear crimson. She was chastised on social media for trying to outdo the bride, especially since she had worn red twice—for the ceremony on Friday and the celebration on Sunday—both times with striking eye-catching patterns.
The backlash was swift and vocal. Comments on her Instagram post pointed out the cultural insensitivity of wearing red to an Indian wedding. Critics noted that it was inappropriate and accused her of trying to steal the spotlight from the bride. Despite this, Kim seemed unfazed by the criticism, sharing additional photos of her red outfit and focusing on the elegance of her accessories.
The Ambani wedding was a star-studded, three-day event filled with opulence and grandeur. Kim made a grand entrance in a sparkling two-piece outfit for the first event of the weekend. She also wore a pale pink satin lehenga with intricate beading for the second day of celebrations. On Sunday, she chose a halter-style red outfit with a flowing scarlet veil, topped with an emerald headpiece.
Amidst the fashion controversies, Kim was seen enjoying the wedding festivities and mingling with guests. Exclusive photos obtained by DailyMail.com showed Kim sharing a sweet moment with little Romy Johnson, the two-year-old daughter of former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie. The toddler wore a peach and cream lehenga by renowned Indian designer Rahul Mishra, adding a touch of innocence to the lavish affair.
Kim Kardashian’s presence at the Ambani wedding showcased her flair for fashion and highlighted cultural sensitivity’s importance. While she was impressed with her glamorous outfits, her choice to wear red sparked significant backlash. Despite the criticism, she seemed to enjoy the celebrations, leaving fans and onlookers divided over her fashion choices and their appropriateness for the occasion.
