Kim Kardashian is once again under fire over what social media users deemed an “inappropriate” outfit worn by her eldest daughter, North West, during a vacation in Rome.
The 12-year-old was spotted leaving Pierluigi with her mom on Saturday night, wearing a black corset and a mini skirt paired with boots.
She also styled her blue ombré hair in pigtails and wore a pair of glasses. While some found her look cute, many criticized Kim, expressing concern over her daughter’s busty top.
What Did the Social Media Say About North West and Kim Kardashian?
North and Kim turned the streets of the Eternal City into their own runway, thanks to their striking, matching ensembles that blended goth and elegance.
While the SKIMS founder stunned in a sheer black slip dress layered with peek-a-boo lace, it was her child who stole much of the spotlight. And by the looks of it, not everyone was fond of her bold look.
X user @_KingArii seemed to align with North’s father, Kanye West, implying that it’s the Kardashians’ style that made him “crash out” online.
At just 12 years old, they questioned why North was dressed like a grown woman, urging Kim “to be a parent” and “stop trying to be her homegirl.”
@mrshelby101 shared a side-by-side photo of North and Prince George, the son of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Though both were born into the spotlight, the picture showed a stark difference in their styles.
At the same age, George still looks youthful in his suit and tie, while North appears far more grown-up in her outfit.
@AveryDaye added, “No 12-year-old should feel the pressure she’s under” and “let kids be kids,” calling her appearance “wrong.”
Despite the criticisms, some have shown support for North.
@therealkimj praised her for living out her “childhood dream” and enjoying “complete freedom of expression.”
@LongLiveAndrea found the kid’s style cute but critiqued her “little chest,” saying it should have been “pushed down, not up.”
So far, Kim has yet to respond to the criticisms surrounding North’s outfit and style.
What Did Kanye West Say About His Kids with Kim Kardashian?
Kim shares North, along with Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, with her ex-husband Kanye West. The celebrity couple married in 2014 and divorced in 2022.
In March, the rapper accused what he called the “Kardashian mob” of restricting his parenting of their four children in a now-deleted series of tweets about their contentious co-parenting agreement.
“Yes I have beef with people that froze my account took my kids away and tried to put me in jail AND ITS STUCK,” he wrote.
“I DONT WANT TO JUST ‘SEE’ MY KIDS. I NEED TO RAISE THEM. I NEED TO HAVE SAY SO OF WEAR [sic] THEY GO TO SCHOOL AND WHO THEIR FRIENDS ARE AND WHOS [sic] HOUSES THEY SLEEP OVER WEATHER [sic] MY DAUGHTERS WEAR LIPSTICK AND PERFUME,” he continued.
“ALL THESE RIGHTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM ME BY THE KARDASHIAN MOB HULU AND DISNEY AND THE BIGGER AGENDA TO USE THE SELECTIVELY BRED BLACK CHILDREN TO BE PLATFORMS TO INFLUENCE BLACK PEOPLE.”
Kanye even compared seeing his four kids to having “visitation” in jail.
“JUST SEEING MY KIDS IS LIKE VISITATION,” he added. “ITS LIKE IM IN PRISON ‘SEEING’ MY KIDS I DONT CARE IF I LIVE OR DIE OR IF IM IN JAIL OR FREE AND I ESPECIALLY DONT CARE ABOUT WHATEVER THESE P–Y ASS CELEBRITIES GOT TO SAY THAT ARE SLAVES TO THE JEWS.”
As the debate over North’s outfit continues, fans remain divided on whether her style is simply a form of self-expression or still a matter of parental responsibility, especially given her young age.
