Kim Kardashian appeared to be getting into the Halloween spirit early this year, as she turned heads with a strikingly unusual ensemble at one of Hollywood’s most glamorous events on Saturday evening.
The 44-year-old SKIMS mogul made a grand entrance at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles, capturing the spotlight with a flesh-colored mask that obscured her famously recognizable features.
This intriguing mask enveloped her entire head and hair, as she posed for the cameras in a nude Maison Margiela gown. The dress featured a skintight corset bodice that accentuated her figure.
Adding to the dramatic flair, the gown’s sleeves were cleverly fastened to the hem of the skirt, creating a bat-like wing effect whenever Kardashian lifted her arms to adjust her mask or rest her hands on her hips.
To complement her avant-garde attire, Kardashian adorned herself with a dazzling diamond choker, its massive stones glistening in the spotlight.
She completed her striking look with a set of claw-like nails and sported emerald rings on both hands, adding a touch of color and elegance to her ensemble.

This is not the first time that Kardashian has graced a star-studded event with her face covered by a mask.
Back in 2021, the mother-of-four famously climbed the Met Gala stairs in an all-black Balenciaga catsuit with a matching balaclava.
Joining Kim at Saturday night’s Academy Museum Gala, which is in its fifth year, was her younger half-sister Kendall Jenner, 29.
The supermodel opted for a more classic silhouette for event as she made her way down the red carpet step-and-repeat photo op in a sleeveless black dress.
Her silky brunette hair was worn down and tucked behind her ears.
After getting in her solo shots, Kendall caught up with her BFF Hailey Bieber, who was also in attendance in a sexy corset dress.
However, Kendall seemingly avoided posing with her big sister Kim on the red carpet.
Other attendees included Sydney Sweeney, Penelope Cruz, Zoe Kravitz, Jenna Ortega, George Clooney and Emily Ratajkowski.

She also took off her diamond necklace, which she handed to her assistant
Kim’s appearance at the gala comes less than 24 hours after she got glammed up to attend the grand opening of her little sister Kylie Jenner’s Kylie Cosmetics pop-up in West Hollywood.
To support the 28-year-old beauty, Kim turned heads in a baby pink, latex gown with a plunging halter neckline as she made her grand arrival.
Paired with the skintight dress, she wore clear platform heels to add many inches to her height and showcase her toned legs.
She highlighted her chest in the cleavage-baring dress by stacking chunky silver necklaces with massive cross pendants.
And Kim added dramatically long nails and back-grazing hair extensions to her glamorous night out look.
The day before Kylie’s pop-up grand opening, Kim attended another star-studded red carpet event.
She slipped in a glamorous gown to join her All’s Fair co-stars Glenn Close, Naomi Watts and Sarah Paulson at the show’s premiere in LA.
Along with a slew of red carpet appearances this week, Kim also dished all about her love life and talked about her famous family in a bombshell Call Her Daddy interview, which was released Thursday.

During the interview, she opened up about the lasting impact of her ‘toxic’ marriage to Kanye West — admitting she still finds it hard to date and detailing the struggles of co-parenting.
While chatting with podcast host Alex Cooper, Kim detailed her troubled nine-year relationship with the rapper, 48.
She explained that she was first drawn to Kanye because of his intellect, branding him ‘larger than life’ and saying they had ‘such a fun time’ together.
Yet things soon took a turn when Kanye, who has publicly struggled with his mental health, began to turn on Kim and her family.
‘When someone has like their first mental break, you want to be super supportive and you want to help figure that out and be there for them,’ she explained.
‘But when someone isn’t willing to make changes that I think would’ve been super healthy and beneficial, it makes it really hard to continue on in a relationship that can be toxic.’
Kim, who shares North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago seven, and Psalm, six, with Kanye, added that having children made it much harder to leave and that she stuck around because she wanted to believe that Kanye would get better.
In 2016, Kanye was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after being hospitalised for a psychiatric emergency.

He later claimed he was misdiagnosed. But when things didn’t improve, Kim knew it was time to leave and to show their children ‘a good example of setting boundaries.’
She explained that her own mental health began to suffer during her marriage, noting: ‘I had to save myself in order to be a better mum for everyone. And I think when everyone’s older they’ll be able to understand it and see that all.’
Asked what was the ‘final straw’ for her, she mused: ‘There was just a lot of things that I wouldn’t deal with.
‘I didn’t like the talking bad about my kids’ grandmother, aunts – if someone feels that way, then we shouldn’t be together,’ she said. ‘You know, airing out a lot of stuff, a lot of personal stuff.’
