Kardashian fans have made a shocking comparison of Kim’s embarrassing runway walk to an iconic Real Housewives of New York City fashion show blunder.
Kim Kardashian, 41, walked the runway for Balenciaga’s Haute Couture show today during Paris Fashion Week.

Kim wore a black floor-length, sleeve-to-glove gown over latex-like tights and matching black heels.
The SKIMS founder attempted to portray stoic and poised as she modeled one of designer Demna’s newest stylings for Balenciaga’s 51st couture collection.
And while poised may have been the aim of Kim’s trance-like facial expression, fans thought it leaned closer to dead-eyed than stoic.
Some fans even compared Kim’s Paris Fashion Week debut to another reality star’s failed runway walk.

On a popular Kardashian-dedicated Reddit board, one user posted an image of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and Real Housewives of New York City’s Ramona Singer’s wide-eyed catwalk faces side-by-side.
The Redditor titled the post, “It’s giving “Ramona”, in reference to Kim’s frozen-faced expression.
A very intense Ramona famously looked like a deer caught in headlights as she walked down a fashion show runway giving onlookers an eye-popping performance.
As Ramona’s RHONY castmate Jill Zarin said “it looked like an alien invaded her body”.

It seems Kim was giving Kardashian fans a similar vibe as they rushed to the comment thread to voice their agreement with the Redditor’s take.
One fan wrote, “I knew she looked familiar!”, while a second excitedly added, “THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT OF”.
Another person quoted Jill in reference to Kim, writing “It’s like an alien invaded her body”.
A fourth Redditor did the same thing, commenting “The eyes are popping…”, with another fan adding “YESSSS! The eyes have it! LOL”.
One fan asked, “Why is her walk so [stiff]? Did she not practice?
Another user jokingly answered: “She took the red pill and the blue pill at the same time.”
While a thoughtful Redditor answered seriously: “The stakes aren’t really that high for her. She isn’t an aspiring runway model”
A third person agreed but wondered how Kim made such a huge misstep, writing “I know but for someone who cares so much about her image and talks about how hard she works and how professional she is, this is a big flop.”
Kim’s debut wasn’t an utter loss however as one fan put it, “Loved the dress. Hated her walk.”
TWITTER TOO
The Kim-Ramona comparison reached beyond one social media platform to another as more fans discussed the similarities between the runway fails.
One tweet read: “Kim K? That’s Ramona Singer.”
Another fan tweeted: “Kim walking down the runway like Ramona is not what I expected.”
The comparisons continued as a third person wrote: “I’m sorry LMAOO Kim K’s eyes on that runway, reminded me of Ramona.”
While a fourth Twitter user posted, “Kim Kardashian for #Balenciaga”, accompanied by a clip of Ramona’s robotic walk.
‘DEAD STARE’
The LA native posted a snippet of her walk on her Instagram Stories.
There Kim thanked those responsible for her Couture show inauguration, captioning the video “Walked in my first Paris fashion show and a COUTURE show at that!!! Thank you @balenciaga @demna“.
On a different board from the one discussed previously, Kardashian fans on Reddit gave their critique of Kim’s focused runway walk.
One Redditor commented: “Such a dead stare.”
Another person wrote: “She is the least interesting to look at…”
While a third fan joked: “[Kim’s] contemplating which child to photoshop next. Let her think in peace.”
MAMA’S GOT YOUR BACK
Not everyone agreed that Kim’s Paris Fashion Week walk was a flop, especially not the Kardashian family matriarch, Kris Jenner, 66.
The Reddit post was titled, “Kris is a mood”, as the screengrab of the fashion show captures the momager proudly recording her daughter from the front row.
A Redditor wrote, in response to the title, “I’m glad someone in this picture is. Kim looks boring as hell.”
“yOu’Re dOinG amaZinG sWeeTie”, commented another fan, jokingly referencing Kris’s now-infamous KUWTK clip that showed Kris cheering her daughter Kim on from the sidelines as the TV personality posed partially nude for a Playboy spread.
