Kali Kennedy, a makeup artist, finished Kim’s makeover by giving her the slender eyebrow trend, which is another homage to Monroe’s iconic style.
Many of Kim’s admirers have dubbed her a “icon” due to the tribute, which began with the obvious likeness between the two icons.
“Monroe Style elegance & sexy,” gushed one admirer. “So.. are you saying that this isn’t Marilyn Monroe? 😍” commented model Winnie Harlow.

Kim wore a bejeweled see-through dress similar to the one she wore to the Met Gala in 2022, which caused quite a stir, in another series of images taken during the same session.
Someone commented, “Looks like you’re about to sing happy birthday to the president,” making reference to the iconic outfit Marilyn wore in 1962 when she serenaded President John F. Kennedy on his birthday.
