Kim Kardashian Debuts Princess Diana's Necklace

Kim Kardashian has sparked controversy after debuting Princess Diana's Attallah Cross necklace at the LACMA Art+Film Gala, wearing it with a revealing white Gucci gown. The necklace, valued at approximately $200,000, was purchased by Kardashian at a Sotheby's auction in January 2023 and is known for its historical significance, having been worn by Diana at a charity event in 1987. Critics have accused Kardashian of disrespecting Diana's legacy, particularly due to her choice of attire, with social media users expressing their outrage. This incident adds to Kardashian's history of wearing iconic pieces linked to famous figures, including Marilyn Monroe's gown at the 2022 Met Gala, which also drew criticism. The Attallah Cross, originally designed in the early 20th century, was frequently lent to Diana by its owner, Naim Attallah, highlighting its connection to the late royal. Kardashian's public appearances with the cross have reignited debates about her fascination with celebrity memorabilia and the appropriateness of such displays.
