Kim Kardashian turned to fashion history for the Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve celebration, arriving in an authenticated 1986 Thierry Mugler gown from the designer’s Hiver Russe collection. The appearance added another chapter to her long-standing engagement with archival couture, a direction she has pursued with increasing consistency in recent years.

The metallic silver gown dates back nearly four decades and reflects Mugler’s mid-1980s approach to form, structure, and theatrical tailoring. Designed with a strapless corseted bodice, the dress narrows through the waist before extending into a fitted, floor-length silhouette. Black textured detailing outlines the bodice and hem, a signature Mugler device from that period, reinforcing contrast and shape without ornament excess.

Originally presented during Mugler’s Fall/Winter 1986 runway, Hiver Russe explored exaggerated proportions and sculpted femininity, themes that defined the designer’s influence throughout the decade. Kardashian’s choice preserved the garment’s original construction and finish, a point noted across fashion coverage that identified the look as a true archive pull rather than a reproduction or reinterpretation.

The gown appeared during the family’s annual Christmas Eve event, a setting that has increasingly doubled as an informal platform for notable fashion appearances. In recent years, Kardashian has used similar moments to debut historically significant pieces, including works by Jean Paul Gaultier, Balenciaga, and previous Mugler designs, aligning her public image with fashion preservation and archival relevance.

By wearing an original 1986 Mugler, Kardashian continues to position vintage couture as a contemporary statement, one rooted in documentation, authorship, and legacy. The appearance shows role as a high-profile custodian of fashion history, bringing archival garments into present-day cultural conversation without altering their original intent.

Skit maker and media personality Kie Kie is known for her distinct personal style. She is also the CEO of Accost Collection the label behind the outfits. In a recent post, she stepped out in two coordinated looks, each rooted in the same design.

In the first look, the dress is layered with patterned panels and soft pink inserts. The cut is structured, with precise shoulders. The fascinator guides the look’s overall shape. She completes the outfit with tinted glasses, gold jewelry, a tailored green handbag, and lace-up heels.

The second shifts in tone. The shade deepens, with darker tones balancing the patterned panels. The layered cut remains, but the outfit is clean and quiet. A mini white handbag, soft jewelry, and pointed heels complete the look. Without the fascinator, the focus shifts to the tailoring of the fabric panels.

Across both outfits, the direction of Accost Collection is distinct. Kie Kie’s approach to fashion relies on proportion and individuality.

Liquorose appears with a look that is sharply constructed and confidently restrained. For the YSL Beauty Light Club, she wore a sculpted black top with a plunging neckline and structured peplum, paired with a floor-length skirt finished in precise, fluid fringe that adds motion.
