Kim Kardashian Dazzles in Chrome Hearts Leather at CFDA Fashion Icon Award Presentation

Kim Kardashian – 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York

Kim Kardashian stole the spotlight at the 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York City, where she was the presenter for Serena Williams's CFDA Fashion Icon Award.

The founder of Skims made her entrance in an alluring black leather gown by Chrome Hearts, coupled with statement-making platform heels. The gown, which showcased the brand’s iconic cross motif, featured a sophisticated high neck and a provocative open back with a discreet slit, finished with playful tasseled accents along the hem.

Elevating her statement look were her platforms with a transparent PVC strap and hefty black soles, culminating in vertiginous 6-inch heels. Kardashian opted for a minimalist pedicure to complement her footwear.

Her makeup selection for the evening was glamorously understated with smokey eyes and a subdued lip color, while her hair was styled into an elegant updo.

Kardashian has a history with Chrome Hearts, a luxury brand established by Richard Stark and favored by the elite of Hollywood, catering originally to the biker and rock 'n' roll crowd with its clothing, jewelry, and accessories. The brand boasts an impressive celebrity following, including names like Cher, Drake, Dua Lipa, Emily Ratajkowski, and Rihanna.

Famously partial to clear footwear, Kardashian has consistently been spotted in various transparent shoe designs, such as Yeezy mules and wedges, over the years.

The CFDA Awards are a prestigious fixture in the fashion calendar, celebrating the talent within the American fashion community. The event is a collaboration with Amazon Fashion this year, promising an illustrious night hosted by Anne Hathaway in the vibrant heart of New York City.
