Kardashian wore a pink dress from Balenciaga’s fall 2025 ready-to-wear collection. The ensemble, inspired by swimwear, featured a formfitting bodysuit-like top with a deep plunging neckline and cutout detail at the torso. It transitioned into a floor-length skirt with a generous side slit. Kardashian styled the piece with Balenciaga’s signature pantaboots, which were made famous by her.

The socialite has a tradition of wearing the brand’s signature hot pink outfits. While hosting “Saturday Night Live” in 2021, the reality star sported three different pink outfits by Balenciaga, including the viral catsuit seen during her opening monologue. In November 2022, Kardashian was thinking pink again, wearing a cutout dress by Balenciaga to attend the Baby2Baby Gala red carpet. In November 2023, she wore another hot pink dress from the brand at the LACMA Art + Film. The Skims’ cofounder has also shared multiple monochromatic pink outfits by Balenciaga on her Instagram stories over the years.
