Fashion face-off: Kim Kardashian walks the runway as Cardi B takes centre stage in Paris

A-list celebrities came to slay at the Paris Haute Couture this week, whether it was walking the runway or slaying the front row seats.

While fashion enthusiasts anticipated that American media personality Kim Kardashian would dazzle at the high-profile fashion affair, she instead became one of the models who strutted the runway for Balenciaga as Demna Gvasalia, the creative director of the brand, marked his final show for the brand.

Kardashian took to Instagram and gave fans a glimpse of the show, including the behind-the-scenes, as she paid tribute to Gvasalia.

“Walking Demna’s last Balenciaga Couture show dripping in Lorraine Schwartz Jewellery and wearing Elizabeth Taylor’s own diamond earring from her private collection,” she wrote.

British top model Naomi Campbell also walked for Gvasalia’s final Balenciaga show and shared on social media her videos from the show as she strutted the runway in her iconic walk.

“An era ends, but your legacy continues. Walking your final show for Balenciaga was an honour @demna. Thank you for the vision, the courage, the future you gave fashion. Onward to your next chapter -  with love and deep respect,” Campbell captioned her post.

Even though Kardashian and Campbell did not deliver a highly anticipated fashion statement with dazzling outfits like the public thought, Cardi B, however, turned heads and owned Haute Couture week.

The American rapper has been wearing bold outfits that have captured the attention of the masses globally.

Not only were her outfits bold, but they certainly became a fashion statement as she always wears extraordinary outfits, which she meticulously pairs with amazing hairstyles that blend perfectly with her outfits.

Cardi B first stunned the internet with a black Schiaparelli dress that featured exaggerated shoulders with layered, moving pearls and even brought a live crow!

She then wore a Stephane Rolland bubble black and white jacket with a long black skirt as she attended the brand’s fashion show.

The third stunning outfit she wore was for the Ashi Studio brand and dazzled in a beige costume dress that was made from pleats and lace.

To close it off, Cardi B attended the Balenciaga show in a mesh black dress and took to Instagram as she paid a heartfelt tribute to Gvasalia.

“@demna I’m truly emotional but so excited for this new chapter in life for you! Thank you for putting me on your campaigns, having me do your runway and treating me like I’m a part of your team!! You are such an amazing designer, I can’t wait to see what you have up on your sleeve next,” she captioned her post.
