Ever since the first teaser for the third Kardashians season dropped several months back, fans have gotten glimpses of a feud between Kourtney and Kim Kardashian. During the third and fourth episodes of season 3 (which aired on June 15 and June 22, 2023), fans saw Kim plan and then execute a fashion show along with Dolce & Gabbana designers.
In both solo confessional scenes and conversations with her other siblings, Kourtney accused Kim of copying the ensembles she donned from the brand for her May 2022 wedding to Travis Barker.
This week, some fans think Kim is still “being shady” and “alluding to her feud” with Kourtney, as the 42-year-old SKIMS mogul just posted photos of herself in black bridal attire from the most recent Puglia, Italy fashion show.

Did Kim Kardashian Just ‘Cast Shade’ On Kourtney With Her Latest Dolce & Gabbana Outfit?
Every Thursday, new episodes of The Kardashians are ready to stream via Hulu. During the past few weeks, episodes have focused on a fight between Kourtney and Kim, leading some fans to believe that Kim is being “shady” to her older sister by uploading pics of herself in a Dolce & Gabbana bridal design.
On July 11, Kim uploaded a photo collection post that showed followers her outfit for the D&G Alta Moda Fashion Show afterparty— a black, corseted, curve-hugging maxi dress with a matching black lace veil. The SKKN founder walked arm-in-arm with Domenico Dolce and her mother, Kris Jenner.
Fans in Kim’s comment section immediately began comparing her gown to Kourtney’s wedding dress— a mini, white corseted number from the same label with an almost identical floral lace veil. Kourtney, as many commenters pointed out, also got married in Italy, and like Kim just did, accessorized her look with sheer, opera-length gloves.

One fan wrote under Kim’s recent upload: “And you wonder why Kourtney was upset? Your dressing exactly like her during her wedding week.” Another added: “It’s literally the exact same thing kourtney wore at her wedding, I get why she was so angry now.” Someone else agreed, chiming in: “Ok now I see what Kourtney was talking about.” One other guessed: “Kourtney is somewhere crying right now.”
During a May 2023 Today Show appearance, Kim told interviewer Savannah Guthrie that the third season of The Kardashians is the “most emotional” their family has ever filmed. When Kim was asked if she was referring to her strained relationship with Kourtney, Kim replied: “We’ve been there before, and we’ll always be OK.” She continued: “We’re always family. That’s how we were raised.”
Kim also told the journalist that she and Kourtney have gone through “cycles” since filming wrapped. “You film it, we think we’re good, and we make up, then you edit it, and I’m seeing all the things she’s saying behind my back and she’s saying all the things I’m saying behind her back, and the tension rises all over again,” Kim explained.
She went on: “It gets really tricky, and it gets really emotional. But at the end of the day, we still love sharing our life.”
The two siblings' quarrel began making headlines in April, when their family's Hulu reality show trailer dropped. It depicted drama around Kourtney’s aforementioned Italy wedding and get-up.
In a confessional, Kourtney shocked fans when she said: "My sister used my wedding as a business opportunity." Kourtney claimed that Kim's behavior wasn't due to a "misunderstanding," but was actually an example of who Kim is "to the core."
Kim then defended herself in a later scene. She said: "I’m really confused at how this narrative came into her head. Like, I couldn’t have been more mindful."
Fans continue to share their thoughts on this after Kim's latest D&G outfit, and its similarities to Kourtney's wedding look.
