There's no slowing the sartorial rise of Kim Kardashian .
Making waves at Paris Fashion Week , the 41-year-old has proved (again!) that she looks good in anything, even wrapped neck to toe in packing tape.
Spotted overnight at Balenciaga's Fall/Winter 2022-23 show for Paris Fashion Week, she was artfully wrapped in yellow and black caution tape, printed with the Balenciaga logo — the look accentuating her signature curves while bringing worldwide attention to the runway show that used the opportunity spotlight the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Taking to Instagram to share her 'getting ready' process, Kim is seen perched on a chair while a team of people carefully wrap her black skin-tight Balenciaga body suit in the designer packing tape.
Even Kim's Balenciaga heels and hourglass handbag couldn't escape a taping.
In an Instagram Story , Balenciaga's creative director Demna Gvasalia wrote of how Russia's invasion of Ukraine has triggered the trauma of his own experience as a refugee of the Georgian Civil War and why paying tribute to Ukraine through his runway show is important.
Seats for the show, held at the Le Bourget exhibition centre in Paris, were covered in the Ukrainian flag.
"This is why working on this show this week was so incredibly hard for me. Because in a time like this, fashion loses its relevance and its actual right to exist. Fashion week feels like some kind of an absurdity. I thought for a moment about cancelling the show that I and my team worked hard on and were all looking forward to. But then I realized that cancelling this show would mean giving in, surrendering to the evil that has already hurt me so much for almost 30 years. I decided that I can no longer sacrifice parts of me to that senseless, heartless war of ego," he wrote via Balenciaga.
"This show needs no explanation. It is a dedication to fearlessness, to resistance, and to the victory of love and peace."
Also in attendance, Salma Hayek in a blue and yellow dress. The actress boldly showing her support for Ukraine in the colours of their national flag.
While Kim's unconventional look might seem 'uncomfortable' or a clever grab for headlines — straight from the Kris Jenner playbook — to divert onlookers away from the noise of her ex, Kanye West, you can't deny the power her latest look has in spotlighting a runway way show that may otherwise have only been obsessed over by the fashion world.
