3 min readIs there a fashion feud going on? On Friday, September 29, video and photo evidence revealed Kim Kardashian sitting next to Anna Wintour before Victoria Beckham’s show at Paris Fashion Week — but others claim the Vogue editor switched seats immediately after the reality star sat down! In a video, the 42-year-old SKIMS founder goes in wearing a pale pink gown & welcomes David Beckham prior to sitting next to Wintour, 73, who seems not to welcome the mother-of-four as she shifts her head the other way. By the end of the show, Kardashian is seated between the athlete and her mother, Kris Jenner, with Wintour nowhere to be seen. On social media, the situation drew rage.

Despite appearances, an insider told a news outlet that Kardashian & the fashion guru sat next to each other for the whole of the fashion show, with others on social media presuming Wintour simply departed the presentation when it ended. Rumors of tension between the ladies have persisted for years, and their NYFW 2022 moment went viral, when the magazine editor seemed to snub Kardashian and welcome Sarah Jessica Parker instead. In 2014, Wintour seemed to prove that there was no dispute when she put the beauty entrepreneur on the cover of Vogue, which prompted uproar. The writer responded by making a mild joke at the TV personality while supporting the editorial choice.

Fans Believe ‘Pissed’ Anna Wintour Switched Seats When Kim Kardashian Plopped Down At The Victoria Beckham Fashion Show
Fans believed Anna Wintour ignored Kim Kardashian by changing seats at Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week event on Friday. Page Six, revealed that Wintour, 73, and Kardashian, 42, sat close to each other throughout the concert. A video circulating on the internet shows the Skims creator sitting next to the Vogue Editor-in-Chief. Wintour kept her arms crossed and appeared to dismiss Kardashian by turning to face David Beckham, who was sitting on the fashion guru’s other side. After another video footage revealed Kardashian seated next to the soccer player with Wintour nowhere in sight, many assumed Wintour got up and stepped away from her. Kardashian, who was dressed in a lovely pink silk gown, looked like she was mouthing the words “I feel so bad” while speaking with the retired athlete, although no audio was available to confirm what was spoken. “Anna moved seats?” one person tweeted. “Oh, Anna was PISSED,” a second individual deduced from the unpleasant encounter. “LMAO Anna said bye,” said a third troll stated. “Oh Kimberly, you’d better restore your relationship with Anna,” a fourth person wrote. Another said, “Anna said let me shift the chile.”
However, Page Six claimed that Kardashian & Wintour sat next to each other throughout the event and were even seen speaking when the media executive exited. Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble accompanied the TV celebrity. Meanwhile, David sat through his wife’s show with his three children: Harper, 12, Cruz, 18, & Brooklyn, 24. Brooklyn was accompanied at the concert by his wife Nicola Peltz, 28, as well as Pamela Anderson, Olivia Palermo, Eva Longoria, Lisa Rinna, and Jenna Lyons. Wintour seemed to give Kardashian a cold shoulder at Fendi’s New York Fashion Week show last September. At the moment, the video showed Wintour approaching Sarah Jessica Parker, who was standing close to Kardashian, yet as the Skkn CEO sought to greet her, Wintour refused. Wintour’s relationship with the Hulu star is complicated. The editor once barred Kardashian from attending the Met Gala in 2012, alleging at the time that “Anna hates Kim.” However, since then, the “Kardashians” actress has attended multiple Met Galas and has appeared on the cover of American Vogue three times.
