1) Kim Kardashian
If there's one thing we know about wedding guest dressing, it's that you must *never* upstage the bride. Now, we haven't seen pics of Stephanie Shepherd's bridal look yet – but somehow we seriously doubt it could be any more of a head-turner than that of BFF and guest Kim Kardashian.
Kim attended her bestie's nuptials in Los Angeles earlier this week wearing one of the boldest wedding guest looks we've ever laid eyes on. Firstly, rocking head-to-toe black would usually be a no-no for a wedding – but when did Kim ever follow the rules? Exactly. Not to mention her 'fit is more cut-out than it is dress, TBH.
Kim wore a velvet maxi skirt from Alaïa's SS23 show featuring daring cut-outs to reveal her high-waisted pants beneath, and paired it with a teeeeny tiny bandeau bra featuring bondage-style straps. She looks 🔥🔥🔥 as ever, ofc. Here's hoping the bride didn't mind...
