For the laid-back occasion, she wore her platinum blonde hair in loose waves cascading down her back and shoulders. This sighting comes after Kim posted more photos in Janet Jackson's iconic 'If' outfit, which she bought for $25K at a 2021 auction. Following her controversial choice to wear the two-piece outfit to Jackson's concert in Palm Desert earlier this month, Kim shared outtakes from the night on Monday.

Upon revealing her attendance at Jackson's concert in the archival look, social media users flocked to X to criticize her choice. Complaints ranged from accusations of "buying historical pieces just for the kick of it" to calling her actions "cringe." Some users questioned why she owned so many of the Jacksons' clothes and whether she would damage them like she supposedly did Marilyn Monroe’s dress at the 2022 Met Gala. However, the dress's owner confirmed Kim did not damage the gown.

Despite the backlash from Janet Jackson fans, the singer herself gave Kim her blessing when she acquired the outfit. In May 2021, Kim posted a photo of Janet in the 'If' video, expressing her excitement over winning the outfit. Janet reposted it, thanking Kim and expressing hope that the outfit brought her as much joy as it did Janet.
