Kim Kardashian deepens her collaboration with Balenciaga in their new campaign, alongside actresses Naomi Watts and Isabelle Huppert. Since January, Kardashian has been a Balenciaga ambassador, and this new campaign marks her second project with the fashion house.
Photographed by Nadav Kander, the 43-year-old reality star dazzles in a platinum blonde look. She wears a striking red wrap dress, a black fur coat, and Balenciaga’s leopard-print Knife stilettos. Kardashian is seen holding the brand’s Rodeo bag in black, which retails for $5,190. Her smoldering gaze and dramatic styling, including arched eyebrows and over-lined lips, complete her high-fashion transformation.
This campaign follows Kardashian’s debut as a Balenciaga ambassador, where she showcased her extensive collection of 129 Balenciaga Le City Bags in her closet.
Kardashian’s partnership with Balenciaga resumed a year after she publicly criticized the brand’s 2022 holiday ads, which featured controversial imagery involving children. At the time, Kardashian expressed her dismay and emphasized the importance of child safety. She praised Balenciaga for removing the ads and apologizing, believing they were committed to preventing such issues in the future.
In addition to her current campaign, Kardashian made headlines in July 2022 when she walked Balenciaga’s first Paris runway show, alongside Nicole Kidman, Naomi Campbell, Dua Lipa, and Bella Hadid. This recent campaign suggests Balenciaga will continue to leverage high-profile celebrities to strengthen its brand presence.
