Kim Kardashian, aged forty-five (45), made a prominent public appearance in London on Wednesday evening, attending a high-profile social gathering hosted by fashion photographer Mert Alas at his private residence. The event was attended by several figures from the fashion and entertainment industries, including acclaimed designer John Galliano, with whom Kardashian was seen departing the venue.
The media personality and entrepreneur—who had officially celebrated her forty-fifth (45th) birthday the previous day—appeared in a sheer, form-fitting minidress featuring a revealing bralette design, complemented by beaded embroidery and tasseled embellishments. She accessorized the ensemble with sheer black tights, open-toed dark red pumps, and a coordinated choker, while her hair was styled in a sleek updo with braided details. Her makeup comprised a smoky eye, defined lashes, soft blush, and nude-toned lip color, enhancing her overall glamorous appearance.
Despite inclement weather, Kardashian was seen exiting the venue in high spirits. The SKIMS founder’s longstanding professional association with host Mert Alas—known for his collaborations with global celebrities such as Ariana Grande, Demi Moore, and Kate Moss—was evident in the convivial nature of the occasion. Alas recently co-directed visual projects and album artwork for Taylor Swift’s “The Life of a Showgirl.”
Speculation surrounding Kardashian’s personal association with Alas surfaced earlier in the year after the photographer appeared in a series of images posted to her Instagram account following a SKIMS promotional event. The reality star’s romantic history includes prior relationships with Pete Davidson and Odell Beckham Jr., as well as her marriage to Kanye West, which lasted from 2014 until its dissolution in 2022. The former couple share four children—North (12), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (6).
In recent public appearances, Kardashian has addressed her private life with candor. During an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, she acknowledged that her children continue to encourage her to pursue dating but confirmed she is not presently in a relationship. In a subsequent Call Her Daddy podcast interview, Kardashian expressed openness to future marriage, stating she would “absolutely” consider remarrying, noting a preference for individuals outside the entertainment or sports industries—mentioning “lawyers or longevity scientists” as examples.
Kardashian’s London engagement followed a series of birthday celebrations in Paris, where she attended the premiere of her upcoming legal drama series, All’s Fair. For the Paris festivities, she wore a blue, form-fitting gown with a plunging neckline, later changing into a gold-and-white ensemble designed by Alexander McQueen for Givenchy’s Spring/Summer 1997 collection. The celebration included appearances by co-stars Naomi Watts and Sarah Paulson, and featured a private gathering at the Crazy Horse cabaret venue.
Prior to the London party, Kardashian also attended the London premiere of All’s Fair at Leicester Square, appearing in a black snakeskin dress paired with a draped black coverup, heeled boots, and layered silver necklaces—a look that reinforced her evolving, fashion-forward aesthetic.#newsafro_
