Kris Jenner Stole Kim Kardashian's Sexy Givenchy Ensemble

When Kim Kardashian West told her mother she needed a makeover, she probably meant to find a new look all her own (the “pilgrim adams family” look just wasn’t working anymore). But Kris Jenner, the matriarch of reality TV’s first family, instead just stole ensembles from her second eldest (and favorite) daughter’s massive closet.
For years, Jenner avoided the Kardashian archetype, choosing collared shirts and trousers over sheer tops and bandage dresses, but being publicly derided by one’s offspring for dressing too “omish” seems to have inspired the 59-year-old to make a change. Sitting front row at Kendall Jenner’s fashion shows, she’s been seen in Fendi sunglasses and crochet Chanel pants; at the Met Gala, the momager wore a red Balmain gown with sexy leg slit; and, most recently, at the DailyMail’s yacht party in the South of France, she accompanied Kylie Jenner in an ethereal gray cleavage-baring gown.
Yet while Kris got style points in Cannes for selecting a style so out of her box she was barely recognizable, all credit subsequently was deducted for the greatest offense of them all: straight up copying Kim. In Paris, she emerged from an SUV with boyfriend Corey Gamble in a Givenchy outfit Mrs. West had worn just a few months prior. The only difference was in how the pair styled it — all the same from the tie-up skin-baring top, open-toed knee-high leather boots, and black spandex — with Kris kind of covering up with a blazer.
It’s always been obvious that Kris is really smart. She made her family millions and none of them has much talent. But this move’s actually genius. By wearing Kim’s clothes, it disables the 34-year-old from making fun of how her mother dresses because doing so would be insulting herself in a way. Kudos to Kris for outsmarting her kid. Also, she looks really good doing it.
