Kim Kardashian knows how to bring a moment full circle. The reality TV mogul and Skims founder revisited her famous 2014 Paper magazine cover—the one that “broke the internet”—by recreating the iconic pose during her Skims Christmas party on Thursday night.
The 44-year-old star posed in a plunging red leather dress, smiling as a friend balanced a drink glass on her backside in a nod to the viral champagne photo that solidified her place in pop culture history. Kardashian shared the playful snap as part of an Instagram carousel on Saturday, captioning it simply, “🎁.”
A Nod to a Viral Legacy
Back in 2014, Kardashian posed for Paper magazine in a sequined black gown while popping a bottle of champagne, with the spray landing perfectly into a glass perched on her oiled derriere. The photo series, paired with the tagline “Break the Internet,” became one of the defining pop culture moments of the decade.
The new Christmas party photos echo that bold and cheeky energy. Kardashian’s fans instantly picked up on the homage, with one commenting, “Oh, the glass picture😂😂.” Her sister, Khloé Kardashian, joined in the fun, calling the post “the gift that keeps on giving.”
Festive Fashion Despite Injury
Kim’s recent injury—a broken foot revealed earlier this month—hasn’t slowed her down. True to form, she managed to wear a high heel on her uninjured right foot, while her left sported a boot. In another playful moment, Kardashian rode a tinsel-wrapped scooter around the holiday bash, further proving that nothing can dim her festive spirit.
Her red leather dress, combined with the dramatic recreation of her iconic pose, kept all eyes on her during the event.
A Busy Holiday Season
Despite her injury, Kardashian has been actively promoting Skims this season. On Dec. 12, she attended the opening of her brand’s flagship store in New York City, where she was seen using a scooter to navigate the event—while still rocking high heels.
The mother of four continues to balance her busy schedule with her characteristic flair, making light of her injury on Instagram by captioning a photo of her heeled cast with, “Broken foot for the holidays.”
A Celebration of Legacy and Resilience
Kim Kardashian’s recreation of her Paper magazine pose isn’t just a fun moment; it’s a reminder of her influence on pop culture and her ability to stay relevant and lighthearted in every situation. With her entrepreneurial success, iconic fashion choices, and playful nods to her past, Kardashian proves that even a broken foot can’t keep her from making headlines.
