Kim Kardashian’s Runway Return Sparks Mockery Over ‘Bathroom Walk’ at Paris Fashion Week
Kim Kardashian made her grand return to the runway at Balenciaga’s Fall 2025 Couture Show in Paris — but her walk quickly became the internet’s latest punchline.
The 44-year-old reality star and mogul stunned in a vintage-inspired ivory satin dress with lace trim, draped in a luxurious fur coat, paying tribute to her idol Elizabeth Taylor. The look, complete with Taylor’s iconic Mike Todd diamond pendant earrings, was meant to channel old Hollywood glamour. But according to viewers? The strut didn’t match the sparkle.
“She’s walking like she just had Taco Bell and needs the bathroom,” one X user joked.
“Me heading back to bed from the toilet at 4am,” another quipped.
Kim’s stiff, swaying stride sparked hundreds of comments comparing her to everything from a “drunk aunt” to a “constipated grandma.” Critics called the walk “atrocious,” while others simply didn’t realize she was meant to be modeling.
Despite the backlash, Kim celebrated her moment on Instagram, calling it an honor to close Demna’s last couture show “dripping in diamonds.” But with social media roasting her every step, one thing is clear: not everyone was buying the fashion fantasy.
