Kim Kardashian has stirred up a buzz with her latest Instagram photo collection and bold, skin-baring attire.
The reality star, 43, donned a tight black turtleneck from her SKIMS collection in new photoshoot pics, paired with over-the-knee Balenciaga boots that accentuated her toned thighs and curves. Additionally, the SKKN mogul’s new shots helped her unveil a pale pink, grungy micro bob hairstyle.
While some fans and followers applauded Kardashian’s edgy fashion sense and new ‘do, others have taken to the comments section of her April 30th IG post to criticize her for supposedly mimicking her ex-husband Kanye West‘s new wife, Bianca Censori, and her daring and skin-revealing wardrobe choices and choppy short hairdo.

Kim Kardashian Sparks Bianca Censori Comparisons With Skin-Baring All-Black Get-Up And Choppy Micro Bob In New Instagram Pics
Kardashian used a pink heart emoji to caption her post, and tagged her glam team. She credited longtime hairstylist and friend Chris Appleton for her rosy new color. Fans headed to the comments section to share their thoughts.
“I couldn’t tell if this was his ex wife or his current wife,” one wrote regarding Kardashian, West (legally known as Ye), 46, and former Yeezy architect Censori, 29. Another user commented: “This is definitely a Censori look” as someone else replied: “straight outta Censori’s playbook.”
In a similar Reddit thread, one fan added: “When I first saw the photos I thought it was Bianca. They look so much alike, Kanye clearly has a type lol,” as one other agreed, noting: “Why she is suddenly being inspired by censori????”
This isn't the first time that Kardashian has sparked comparisons to the "Flashing Lights" rapper's new flame, Censori. Back in March, the Kardashians star went topless for another photoshoot, donning a long brown furry Balenciaga coat and sheer tights, an apparent staple of Censori's closet.
Kardashian and Ye, as fans know (and who were formerly dubbed 'Kimye') tied the knot in 2014, finalized their highly publicized divorce in 2022 and share four children: North, 10, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 4.
According to TMZ, Ye and Censori exchanged vows in a cozy ceremony in January 2023. The same source disclosed that the couple has not yet acquired a formal marriage certificate.
Many fans on social media continue to defend Kardashian's style, and claim that Censori is the one "copying" the mom of four.
Over the past few months, Censori has stepped out in extremely racy outfits, with many fans even accusing her husband Ye of "forcing" her to wear the barely-there clothing, "controlling" her, and turning her into a "clone" of his ex-wife, Kardashian.
These "controlling" accusations come after an insider allegedly disclosed to The Daily Mail earlier this year that Ye prevents Censori from accessing social media as a means of "protecting" her.
"Bianca has always had social media, and she was active on it — until she married Kanye," the source dished. "He doesn’t want her to have it because he thinks that it will hurt her if she had to read the nasty things that people say."
The insider went on: "He is pushing her nakedness all over his own [account] so that he can control her narrative. It is disturbing, and by shutting her off from the world he is causing her to become more and more isolated."
According to another source who allegedly sat down with OK! Magazine, "Kanye clearly set out to clone Kim [Kardashian], which disgusts her, but the truth is, it also fascinates her in a morbid way."
The source continued: "It's just so creepy." In a recent report from the outlet, an insider dished to the mag that "even though [Kardashian would] never want [Ye] back, this is still messing with her head." They also claimed to be close to Kardashian. "It’s like he’s turned Bianca into his personal robot," they added, "with the added indignity that she’s paraded around half-naked all the time."
Even though Ye has been married to his new spouse for over a year, insiders report that he remains "obsessed" with Kardashian, and is trying to mold Censori into a likeness of his former partner.
