In regard to the perceived snub, another source disputed the claim that there was any bad blood between Kim Kardashian and Anna Wintour at Victoria Beckham’s show. “Anna had to leave early for another engagement,” an insider told Page Six. They told the outlet that Kardashian and company were not the cause of the delay. “The show would have started without [Kardashians], but [Beckham’s team was] not ready backstage,” they said while adding that it was common for Paris Fashion Week shows to be behind schedule.
Many fans believed that the viral clip of Wintour and “The Kardashians” star was proof of friction, while others pointed out that it was only business as usual. “Now why are you making this up? Anna didn’t snub Kim K that’s just Anna’s Face,” one X user commented. “They actually sat together,” another wrote while including a photo of the pair speaking during the show.
Although several fans and outlets have been eager to see a dust-up between the pair, Wintour has appeared pro-Kardashian over the years. In 2014, she put Kardashian and then-husband Kanye West on the cover of Vogue. Years later, in 2019, Wintour was effusive when speaking about Kardashian’s fashion sense. “I personally admire the way she’s become a little bit more minimal in the way that she’s dressing and a little bit more covered,” she said in a segment called “Go Ask Anna” for Vogue’s YouTube channel, while also praising the Kardashian family’s “empire.”
