The Kardashians are not known for their subtlety, nor for particularly caring what other people think.

Kim in particular regularly ruffles feathers with her style choices, from wearing a nude-coloured mask which covered her entire face, to wearing a dress made famous by Marilyn Monroe.

She also regularly defends her daughter North West for her bold looks with piercings, fake tattoos and vibrant hair.

It seems Kim fancied a change for her latest outing, as she teamed a sparkly, stretchy Gucci gold dress with tousled hair for the for the annual Vanity Fair Oscars party.

This time, it wasn't the dress that got people talking, but Kim's eyes instead, as she opted for some contact lenses for a whole new look.

Fans couldn't believe the difference in her image, as they were so used to seeing her with dark brown eyes.

Instead, Kim showed up on the red carpet with some piercing baby blues instead, but fans are divided over whether it's a good look for her or not.

The 45-year-old credited Gucci's creative director Demna Gvasalia for the look, as she wrote: "DEMNA 4 EVER GUCCI."

Fans were quick to respond to the transformation, and it wasn't the gold bodycon dress that got people talking.

On Reddit one wrote: "Kim please, step away from the contact lenses."

"I know in real life this looks terrifying," slammed another.

"Blue eyes do not match her complexion at all, she has too many dark features for that," insisted one commenter.

"I’m always defending Miss Kimberly and fighting for my life in the comments. But girl what the - (Tyra Voice) If I could give you a zero I would. But that's not possible, so I give you a one," one fan tried to be nice.

One supporter argued: "Noo it's fun! Just for one night who cares! Also I think it looks really good here! But it didn't photograph well in the carpet, from afar."

"Let her enjoy herself" insisted one viewer, arguing that 'life's too short and you're allowed to experiment".

"Kim, those contacts," another said simply on X, topped off with a crying emoji.

"Are colored lenses just fundamentally terrible? I know she’s gotta be using a high end brand, but it’s still giving the possessed dead-eyed doll look as my cheap blue lenses during my regrettable colored contacts phase," mused another critic.

Needless to say, it's not been her most popular of looks, but she seemed happy with it and that's what matters.
