Luann de Lesseps Laughs Off Kim Kardashian Met Gala Look Comparison

It might be time for Luann de Lesseps to invite Kim Kardashian to join her cabaret show.

A former cast member of “The Real Housewives of New York City” shared her opinions, joining in on discussions that drew comparisons between Kardashian’s 2025 Met Gala outfit and the 59-year-old’s cabaret style, as many social media users had noticed.

Last night at the Met Gala, when someone on the old platform (previously known as Twitter) said they loved seeing Kim pay tribute to @CountessLuann, I couldn’t help but respond with a series of laughter-tear emojis! It was definitely my highlight from the event.

In addition, the countess posted several Instagram stories featuring fans making comparisons between Kim’s appearance and hers, capturing her amused reactions. She also acknowledged designer Philip Treacy, who provides her with her vibrant cabaret hats.

On May 6th, Luann expressed her affection for Philip Treacy hats on her Instagram Story, posting a picture next to Kim with the caption. Notably, Treacy is known as the milliner (hat maker) for the British queen.

In regards to the comparisons, Kim remained silent, as she was adorned by Jahleel Weaver and wore a black leather dress from Chrome Hearts, paired with a black hat by Stephen Jones Millinery, multiple Moussaieff diamond necklaces draped across her chest, and earrings to match.

Instead, she decided to cite Lenny Kravitz, Jimi Hendrix, and Miles Davis as her style inspirations when adhering to the “Tailored for You” dress code under the “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve always been enthralled by Lenny Kravitz, a contemporary dandy whose unique, bold fashion sense, much like legends such as Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis, has carved out distinct and culturally influential aesthetics that continue to shape men’s fashion for generations. In a recent Instagram post on May 6th, I expressed my admiration by stating that Lenny’s signature Chrome Hearts style embodies the essence of this theme – black attire, impeccable tailoring, and a nod to dandy tradition.
