'First Marilyn, Now Diana': Kim Kardashian Slammed For Wearing Princess Diana's $200K Cross Necklace

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian's latest fashion choice sparked an outrage on social media, with users calling her style "sleazy" and "vulgar". Kardashian, 44, flaunted Princess Diana's Attallah Cross necklace at an event at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art on Saturday, November 2. However, what prompted the mixed reactions, was her way of styling the iconic neck piece. She paired the necklace with a revealing white gown. The same piece of jewelry was worn by Princess Diana on several occasions, including the Birthright's London charity gala, where she wore it with a Catherine Walker Victorian velvet gown in royal purple color. This was not the first time she wore a famous piece belonging to a prominent woman, as she also styled Marilyn Monroe's 'Happy Birthday Mr. President' dress at the Met Gala event in 2022.

Social Media Users React To Kardashian's PostSocial media users weren't too happy to see the necklace around the reality TV star's neck. Reacting to Kardashian's fashion move, one X user said, "This is so disrespectful to Princess Diana and the church.. Can't leave a religious relic alone without sexualizing themselves with it."

Why is she so obsessed with wearing dead or icon celebrities stuff?
