Kim Kardashian received a frosty reception from Anna Wintour for arriving late at Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week Show
Victoria Beckham made her debut on The Kardashians reality TV show during the Season 5 premiere on Thursday and her appearance sparked some drama.
The former Spice Girl found herself caught up in a glaring fashion faux pas as Kim Kardashian and her mother Kris Jenner rocked up 20 minutes late to her runway show at Paris Fashion Week apparently leaving fellow attendees, including Vogue editor Anna Wintour, unimpressed.
Kardashian’s sister, model Kendall Jenner, was walking in Beckham’s show and the family wanted to be there to support her. However, not leaving their hotel in good time to beat the Paris traffic during notoriously busy Fashion Week meant they were stuck in their car seats as their front row seats at the exclusive fashion show stayed empty.
“We are in this crush of traffic. We know we’re gonna be late. We feel terrible,” matriarch Jenner, 68, explained on the reality show that aired the the moment. “We don’t know what else to do. It’s like one road in and one road out. It’s stopped.”
In the car, she is seen asking Kim if she wanted to text Beckham, 50, to say that they’re going to be late, but her famous daughter shuts that idea down.

“I’m so nervous that we’re not gonna make the show,” Jenner told viewers. “I know how much this means to Kim, and Victoria and Kim are good friends. And Kendall’s walking the show.”
“The car ride took us an hour, so we’re 20 minutes late to the show,” Kardashian added. “I’m not late like that. I’m very respectful of people’s time and I feel really bad that we’re late.”
When they finally arrived at the event, Kardashian also told viewers that she knows the optics are bad. The episode, which was filmed in September 2023, had sparked reports at the time that Wintour, who was seated next to Kardashian, 43, at the show, was angry about the hold up.
And indeed, once the reality star arrived Wintour, 74, who greeted her with a “hi”, did appear somewhat frosty.
