But on Saturday, at the LACMA Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles, Kardashian debuted another cultural artifact — a diamond-lined cross pendant, once a favorite of Princess ... the first time the necklace has been worn in public since Diana’s death in 1997.

As Kim Kardashian stepped out to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, she walked the red carpet wearing one of Princess Diana’s most iconic necklaces.

Kim Kardashian attended a gala in a diamond cross necklace Princess Diana previously wore. She bought it at an auction for nearly $200,000.

Kim Kardashian’s latest red carpet look has set the internet ablaze—not for the dress, but for the iconic royal jewelry draped around her neck. Fans are divided, with many questioning if she crossed the line.

Princess Diana famously wore the Atallah Cross pendant to gala in 1987. Almost two years ago, Kim Kardashian purchased Princess Diana's Attallah Cross necklace at auction, and this past weekend, she wore it publicly for the first time.

Fans have criticized Kim Kardashian for wearing Princess Diana's iconic cross necklace, labeling the fashion choice as "vulgar." The 44-year-old reality star wore the symbolic piece at the 2024 LACMA Art + Film Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Kim Kardashian paired the iconic necklace with a revealing white gown. The same piece of jewelry was worn by Princess Diana on several occasions, including the Birthright's London charity gala, where she wore it with a Catherine Walker Victorian velvet gown in royal purple color.
