Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

But exactly what is the statement? That burqas can be fashion-forward? That “burqas are A-okay”?
What???

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

Statement of the Kardashian: I want attention, doesnt matter how or what way, as long as i get it.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps…

Other day i saw her pics in Bikini and now this :eek:

She is a attention seeker

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

can be seen as a positive thing, introducing burqa to Westerners in a positive light.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

I don't know.....at first glance it certainly comes across as a mockery of the whole thing.

I wonder if there has ever been a fashion show with a catwalk full of burqa clad women......

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

Yeah it does sort of...especially in the pic where she's showing her bare legs.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps…

Abaya fashion is quite a big industry in the middle east so Kim is just embracing the fashion scene in Dubai I guess.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

there we go! thanks Barbie.....

so maybe she's not tongue-in-cheek afterall......

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

No I don't think so. Everything she does is usually blown out of proportion by the media. Sounds to me like she was just tweeting her Dubai adventure but the media started adding masala to the whole burqa thing.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps…

I didn’t see the bare leg and the niqaab picture, but I thought she looked so beautiful in other pictures, can’t believe I’m saying that. She looks seriously more attractive and natural in abaya than she does in her usual super skimpy doll dresses. She should always have an Emirati abaya on. :smiley:

I found more pictures here:

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

you are right....she does look quite stunning in the link you have posted.

very porcelain doll-ish....

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

lol i just wrote about this in my blog.

at first i thought she was mocking the whole burka. but maybe she is just trying to fit in? yah? no?

they do have abaya fashion shows all the time there. its a big booming business. abayas can go up to the thousands of dollars i think.

this reminds me of the Hermes Sarees they are selling in Mumbai that go from 6000 bucks. thats insane.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps…

she was there and having fun in dubai and i dont think she had any agenda to make mockery of it.

Re: Kardashian Burqa-fied!!!! Fashion Statement Perhaps....

She looks beautiful in an abaya.
