Kim Kardashian Covers Entire Face in Shocking Look at Academy Museum Gala

Kim Kardashian turned heads and raised eyebrows at the Academy Museum Gala … stepping out in a nude, full face mask that gave total deja vu to her infamous Met Gala moment.

The SKIMS mogul hit the red carpet Saturday night in a Maison Margiela gown — a strapless, corseted masterpiece with draped sleeves and a matching mask that completely concealed her face and hair.

The only sparkle in sight? A crystal encrusted choker dripping with green jewels and cross pendants.

Kim shared the transformation on her Instagram Stories, including a behind the scenes moment with her glam squad at the gala … joking with her longtime makeup artist, Mario Dedivanovic, about whether her makeup looked good under the mask.

The look instantly drew comparisons to her headline-making 2021 Met Gala outfit … the all-black Balenciaga ensemble that had fans calling her the faceless fashion queen.

Kim’s no stranger to pushing the fashion envelope. Just a few months ago, she wore another Maison Margiela piece … a dramatic gray jumpsuit with floor length cape sleeves while attending Diane von Furstenberg‘s DVF Awards.
