Kim Kardashian Sparks Outrage Wearing Princess Diana’s Iconic Cross Necklace

Recently, American media personality and businesswoman Kim Kardashian stirred online controversy by wearing a necklace famously worn by the late Princess Diana. The pendant, known as the Attallah Cross, holds both sentimental and cultural significance, symbolizing Diana’s unique sense of style and elegance. Kardashian wore the necklace to the prestigious LACMA Art+Film Gala, held on November 2, and paired it with a low-cut, white Gucci gown. However, while Kardashian’s choice was intended to honor the “people’s princess,” many online felt it missed the mark.

The necklace, which Kardashian acquired at an auction last year for R3.5 million, was one of Princess Diana’s treasured pieces. Diana famously wore it in 1987 at London’s Birthright charity gala, styled on a long pearl chain, which she paired with a royal purple, Victorian-style velvet gown by Catherine Walker. In contrast, Kardashian’s choice of dress—a revealing Gucci gown—has sparked strong reactions across social media. Many users criticized her for what they saw as a mismatched pairing, with some even accusing her of “sexualizing” the iconic piece.

Social media quickly reacted, with users across platforms expressing their disapproval. One X (formerly Twitter) user commented, “Can I just say I find Kim Kardashian wearing Princess Diana’s cross a revolting flaunt of wealth, power, and ignorance?” This sentiment was echoed by others, who felt that the fashion mogul’s look didn’t reflect the grace and elegance associated with Diana.

For Kardashian, this is not her first brush with public outrage over wearing iconic items belonging to late cultural icons. In 2022, she faced similar backlash after wearing Marilyn Monroe’s legendary dress at the Met Gala. Critics at the time claimed that her decision lacked taste, with some arguing that she diminished the value of the garment by altering its context and aesthetic.

Kardashian’s decision to wear Diana’s necklace raises ongoing discussions about fashion and legacy, with many questioning the implications of reintroducing historical pieces in contemporary styles. The contrast between Kardashian’s modern, bold look and Princess Diana’s classic, refined aesthetic has ignited debates on respecting iconic fashion pieces and the individuals who originally wore them.

While Kardashian’s intent may have been to honor Princess Diana, the strong social media reaction shows just how deeply people connect to these symbols of history. Her choice to wear the Attallah Cross necklace to LACMA’s Art+Film Gala has reminded audiences of the cultural power certain artifacts hold and the careful balance needed when reinterpreting them for modern-day style.
