Kim Kardashian wore the custom Janet Jackson suit she bought at auction three years ago while heading to the icon’s concert in Palm Springs on Tuesday night.
Taking to Instagram, the SKIMS mogul, 43, who recently enjoyed a ‘ride’ with sister Kourtney Kardashian, showed off images of herself wearing the unique two-piece ensemble that Janet, 58, wore to her ‘If ‘ music video.
Appealing to her 362 million followers, Kardashian showed off her taut tummy in a black shrunken vest and matching lace-up suede pants.
First, she recorded her steps as she walked in pointy black heels and whispered, ‘Can you guess where I’m going tonight?’ I bet you’ll never guess.
In a second clip shared to her Stories, she dropped a big track while soundtracking Janet’s upbeat R&B hit.

On Instagram, the SKIMS mogul, 43, showed off images of herself wearing the unique two-piece ensemble that Janet, 58, wore in her 1993 If music video.
Jackson gave Kim his blessing after she listed the pieces at an auction in May 2021.
Kim then filmed herself in the back seat of a luxury vehicle as she headed to Acrisure Arena in Greater Palm Springs.
She showed off a bit of her bleached blonde locks and revealed her fully made-up face.
The fragment was released along with another of Jackson’s hit singles, Any Time, Any Place.
Finally, Kim confessed, “I’m going to be spamming tonight, so unless you want to see so much @janetjackson content, I suggest you stay away from my page.”
In the story’s next post, Kim reshared a note the pop legend shared with her shortly after she composed the outfit.
In May 2021, Kim uploaded a photo of Janet in the If video and gushed, “For @janetjackson’s birthday, I’m such a fan I can’t believe she won this outfit at @jules_auctions.”
The singer reposted it and added, “Thank you so much @kimkardashian. I hope ‘IF’ gives you as much pleasure as it does me,” along with a three-kiss emoji.
Jules Auctions also shared the news of Kim’s purchase on X at the time, which was then called Twitter.

Jules Auctions shared the news of Kim’s purchase on X, which was then called Twitter, back in 2021.
Kim is known for her spectacular fashion and loves to reference historical sartorial moments.
She surprised her fans and ruffled feathers in 2022 when she wore the custom-made champagne-colored dress that Marilyn Monroe wore in 1962, when she serenaded then-President John F. Kennedy, at the Met Gala.
Kardashian has also turned to stars like Cher, Aaliyah and Sophia Loren for fashion advice in the past.
