North West, the teenage daughter of reality television star Kim Kardashian and rapper Kanye West, has once again captured public attention after debuting what appeared to be new facial piercings during Paris Fashion Week.
The 13-year-old attended the Vetements Menswear Spring/Summer 2027 show in Paris on Friday, where her bold fashion statement quickly became a topic of discussion across social media platforms.
Videos and photographs from the event showed North wearing what appeared to be two new angel bite piercings on her upper lip. She also displayed several other facial piercings, including studs beneath one eye and another positioned on the bridge of her nose.
It remains unclear whether the latest piercings are permanent or decorative accessories created specifically for the fashion event.
For the show, North paired her facial jewellery with an eye-catching electric blue wig, continuing the distinctive style choices that have made her a regular fixture in celebrity fashion headlines. She wore a black long-sleeved top, a matching mini skirt, tights and black combat boots.
The young fashion enthusiast completed her look with custom diamond-encrusted jewellery designed by Alex Moss NYC, including a spike choker and coordinating hand accessory.
North’s latest appearance comes months after she attracted attention for showing off multiple hand piercings in February. The move sparked debate online, with some critics questioning the appropriateness of the accessories for someone her age.
Despite the criticism, North has previously expressed her enthusiasm for body art and piercings. Earlier this year, she collaborated with her father, Kanye West, on the song Piercing on My Hand, in which she referenced her interest in piercings, tattoos and unconventional fashion choices.
The lyrics highlighted her desire for additional piercings and tattoos while also referencing her preference for colourful hairstyles.
As the daughter of two of the entertainment industry’s most recognisable figures, North has increasingly emerged as a style influencer in her own right, frequently making headlines for her appearances at major fashion events and her distinctive approach to fashion.
Her latest Paris Fashion Week appearance continues that trend, generating widespread discussion among fans and fashion observers alike.
