Guess this is Kim Kardashian’s version of casual.
After the Skims founder, 44, told Vogue that the famous family would forgo their annual over-the-top party in favor of a “really low-key” Christmas Eve party, she got all dressed up in a skin-tight gown.
She wore a Norma Kamali snake-printed turtleneck dress ($350 $210), skipping jewelry and wearing her hair up in a slicked-back ponytail. She even added pointed-toe snakeskin boots to finish off the outfit.
Kardashian rocked a red manicure and smokey eye makeup as she took part in two TikTok videos with eldest daughter North West — who was dressed up in a white corset, black tie and black bubble-hem skirt.
North, 11, rocked knee-high boots and a cropped jacket for her high-fashion look.
Sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner opted for matching winter white outfits, with the former choosing a silk long-sleeved Phoebe Philo gown and the latter in a sequin-covered Saint Laurent dress.
Khloé Kardashian, however, had to skip the celebration as daughter True and son Tatum were both too sick to attend.
While the family has not shared many details from their pared-down party, they did show off festive white cocktails, presumably made with some of Kendall Jenner’s 818 Tequila, which was displayed in rows and covered in red bows.
Kim revealed that the reason for the switch-up was due to “a lot of construction” that would make logistics difficult, but she did tease their over-the-top outfits, quipping, “because that’s what we do.”
Part parties have gotten so lavish since the 1970s inception that recent price tags for the star-studded event have climbed north of $1 million. A-list guests have included Paris Hilton, Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Hailey Bieber and Timothée Chalamet.
There are typically performances as well, in the past starring Sia, John Legend, Toni Braxton and Babyface.
And the fashions have gotten more flashy, too. As all but Kendall Jenner have become parents, there have been tons of matching mother-daughter moments as well as coordinating with each other in festive reds and sparkles.
The second generation also love to twin, wearing lots of sparkle, fur and more.
Kim is always the most opulent dresser, having previously worn a 1997 vintage Mugler fur-covered gown and a vintage Versace glittering gown, to name a few of her stand-out looks.
Thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic, the family previously cancelled their iconic party in 2020 — the first time in nearly 40 years — but Kim, true to form, stole the show in a Schiaparelli couture gown featuring a corset made to look like abs.
