The SKIMS founder, draped in a tight gold Gucci gown that read like a second skin, learned the hard way that eight-inch heels have consequences.
On her way to the after-party, Kardashian lost her footing as her towering platforms gave out beneath her. She went down, landing in a nearby bush in a blur of gold sequins and sharp yelps.
“Ahhh sorry, my ankle! Sorry!” Kardashian cried, grabbing onto a passerby to steady herself. For a moment, it looked like the main character of the night might be sidelined by a twisted ankle.
Clutching longtime associate Stephanie Shepherd’s hand, a visibly shaken Kardashian refused to scrap the look. “I’m nervous for the carpet,” she admitted, steadying herself.
Moments later, she told her team to secure the “nonnegotiable” heels. “Wait, let me try and walk on it,” she insisted, gripping Shepherd’s arm to stay upright.
While Kardashian eventually made it to the carpet with careful, measured steps, the commenters got there first. They called the moment ridiculous and started predicting how many episodes of ‘The Kardashians’ the fall would get.”
Lewis Hamilton dropped a heart-eyes emoji on her Oscars look post. The Ferrari driver has been linked to Kardashian for weeks, with public sightings ranging from a Cotswolds getaway in February to a Super Bowl appearance in Santa Clara on Feb. 8.
Sources say the two have been in regular contact, with Hamilton FaceTiming Kardashian from the paddock.
