Kim Kardashian faced significant backlash on social media for allowing her 12-year-old daughter North West to wear a corset and mini skirt during their vacation in Rome.
On Saturday evening, North, who was leaving a restaurant called Pierluigi with her mother, appeared taller than her mom in platform boots. With her hair styled in blue ombre braids and wearing glasses, North's look was deemed "cute" by some fans, while most users found the outfit inappropriate for her age.
One social media user commented, "I didn't like a 12-year-old wearing a bustier. I love Kim and North, but that would definitely not be okay for me." Another wrote, "This is very inappropriate, Kim." Another user expressed their discontent with, "Okay Kim, but she's only 12..."
In another critique, it was stated that Kardashian's daughter should maintain her innocence, saying, "The skirt and boots are normal, but a 12-year-old wearing a corset is too much. I say this as a fashion designer who designs outfits for exotic dancers."
However, there were also supporters of Kardashian. One fan stated, "People's judgments are too harsh; everyone should look at themselves first, leave Kim alone," showing support for the famous reality star.
Kim Kardashian's representatives did not immediately comment on the matter. Kardashian is also the mother of Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (6). She shares her children with Kanye West, whom she was married to from 2014 to 2022.
Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West had previously claimed that he was stripped of his rights regarding what the Kardashian family's children should wear, which school they should attend, and who they should spend time with. In March, he wrote on X, "I just want to see my kids; I should be raising them. I should have a say. My daughters are wearing lipstick and perfume." At that time, he likened seeing his children to a "prison visit."
In the same month, Kim Kardashian expressed her concerns about Kanye's parenting style. In particular, West's use of North in a song with convicted rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs had sparked backlash.
A source speaking to Page Six revealed that Kardashian's top priority is the safety and well-being of her children, and she is trying to keep them away from Kanye's controversial behavior.
