KIM Kardashian has been accused of copying supermodel Naomi Campbell’s catwalk style.
The reality TV icon has paid homage to her fashion inspiration at several red carpet events and now eagle-eyed social media users have called her out.
Kim donned a vintage blue and purple Versus Versace dress as she attended Chance the Rapper’s recent wedding.
Naomi had previously worn the eye-catching frock for a Versace runway in 1996 and was the outfit used when the supermodel was immortalised in a waxwork figure soon after.
The comparisons continue with some of Naomi’s more recent looks with Kim being spotted exploring Los Angeles last year in an identical costume to what the supermodel donned while filming TV series The Face in 2013.
The black ensemble featured a neck choker with belts strapped across the waistline connected to a matching skirt.
Kim later raided her Naomi Campbell dressing-up box to recreate the model’s sparkling look from the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards.
Kim donned the exact same outfit at last December’s Versace fashion show in New York.
Naomi looked radiant in 2015 attending The Fragrance Foundation Awards in a feather-design silver gown.
Kim was clearly inspired as she wore the frock in December 2018 for the premiere of The Cher Show in New York.
One Twitter user put: “Twinning? More like Kim Kardashian TRYING to imitate legendary supermodel Naomi Campbell.”
Another questioned: “Why does Kim Kardashian want to be 90s Naomi Campbell so bad?”
Following on from Kim posting a picture of herself at Paris Fashion Week, one follower told the star: “Naomi Campbell way before you, darling!”
As social media posts about the fashion faux-pas went viral, people flocked to comment on Kim’s copycat style.
One fan put: “Naomi Campbell wore it better.”
Another ranted: “Everything Naomi Campbell did, Kim Kardashian did it worse.”
A third argued: “It’s like I’ve been saying, Kim Kardashian has copied Naomi Campbell’s whole face. How does no one else see it?”
However, one follower kept a more empowering and positive tone.
They put: “I’m obsessed with the fact @KimKardashian gets inspired by @NaomiCampbell iconic looks.
“We love to see women supporting other women!!”
Although Kim and Naomi have been pictured together on several occasions, the 90s supermodel once appeared to shade the reality star during a TV interview.
In 2014 Naomi was asked her opinion on Kim and Kanye landing a cover shoot for Vogue magazine, to which she at first offered “no comment” before cackling nervously.
Naomi then explained: “I’m a fashion model and I’ve been working for 28 years, and when you get a Vogue cover, it’s a build in your career, it’s a stepping stone to achieve that.”
