Kim Kardashian Got Versace to Completely Re-create Her Favorite 1995 Dress, and Now We Believe in Fashion Again

About 48 hours ago, Kim Kardashian stepped out onto the red carpet of the Catholicism-themed Met Gala in an ultra-tight golden Versace gown accented with a couple of crosses. The gown was, of course, custom; what’s more, it was (appropriately enough) a resurrection, inspired by “the iconic gold chain-mail and cross designs from the 1997 Versace couture show.”

Fast-forward to about 24 hours later, and Kardashian, whom Donatella Versace has now taken to calling “the golden goddess,” has again resurrected the ’90s. Indeed, this time, at a dinner for the Business of Fashion on Tuesday night, she went even further in doing so, since the ateliers didn’t just take inspiration from the dress that the model Yasmeen Ghauri paraded down Gianni Versace‘s runway in 1994, debuting what would become “one of [Kardashian’s] all-time favorite looks.” Instead, they full-on re-created it, right down to its wavy corset, bikini-line-level slit, simple straps, ribboned bodice, and, of course, canary yellow hue.

Now, cut to the future: This morning, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, aka the CFDA, announced plans to dedicate its first-ever Influencer Award to Kardashian at its upcoming awards ceremony, essentially the Oscars of fashion. And while pretty much anyone in or out of fashion could tell you that the ’90s are currently back, it’s a mark of Kardashian’s true fashion cred that in two days alone, she’s unearthed some of the best of the decade’s bunch.

Aside from it being smack-dab in the middle of the ’90s, when Gianni was still at the helm of the house (and the decade’s supers), it’s no wonder that spring 1995 in particular would be one of Kardashian’s favorite collections; it was essentially an homage to corsetry, which we all know Kim’s a fan of, thanks to her constant “waist trainer” spon con. There’s also the fact, though, that well before MAGA, Versace’s stated intent with the collection was “I want to make people believe in fashion again.”

There’s no better time, then, to look back at such a perfect slice of the Versace-filled ’90s—which saw even Ivanka Trump look pure—than now. Even Madonna agrees: Though hers was vintage, on Monday, after the Met Gala, Madge also brought back some 1995 Versace, complementing Kardashian’s gold in a silver slip dress. Below, a trip down memory lane. You can believe in fashion again.
