Many were quick to share their confusion over Kim Kardashian‘s avant-garde Balenciaga look, with one tweeting: ‘Please tell me she isn’t wearing that,’ as others compared her to a soul-eating Dementor from Harry Potter as well as the titular character from Ridley Scott’s Alien.
Elsewhere, the resemblance between Lil Nas X’s gold Versace suit of armor and Star Wars robot C-3PO was noted, while others compared Timothée Chalamet’s Haider Ackermann tuxedo jacket and sweatpants combo to a chef’s uniform.
