Kim Kardashian, one of Balenciaga's biggest brand ambassadors, raised eyebrows after giving a nod to the English town of Barnsley on her sexy leather bodysuit while arriving at one of the luxury brand's' stores in Paris on Tuesday, July 5.

The backside of Kim's all-leather ensemble made waves on social media after it listed a bunch of "tour dates" for the fictionial band 'Speedhunters' and Barnsley was at the top of the list of dates. The Yorkshire market town is not usually synonymous with high fashion. But in 2017, it was revealed that the Balenciaga "tour dates" print was a tribute to the brand team's birthplaces and birthdays, and modeled after a generic "band T-shirt". One of the team's members is reportedly from Barnsley and has been putting the town on the fashion map for the past five years. Now, the same print has made it to the fashion mogul's world-famous pert derriere.

Kim's bodysuit featured four men sporting matching leather jackets and featured a similar font to that of 90s popstars 'Backstreet Boys.' The distinct style has been described as a commentary on the global merchandise industry, as one of the last ways for artists to profit from their music. Meanwhile, it could also be a cultural nod to the recent trend of fake celebrities and AI influencers, according to High Snobiety.

Nonetheless, Kim flaunted her curvaceous figure as she stepped out in the suit coupled with $2,733 Balenciaga Pantaleggings. The Kardashians star turned heads as she joined her eldest daughter North, who recently turned nine, in the French capital for fashion week. Kim showcased her petite waist in the graphic printed bodysuit that laced up across her back. The reality TV star wore her platinum blonde locks loose while highlighting her cheekbones with bright pink blusher and lips with a nude gloss. She completed the look with a black fur handbag and a pair of futuristic sunglasses. North, who Kim shares with estranged husband Kanye West, also channeled her inner fashionista as she joined her mother on the outing. The youngster paired an oversized denim jacket with a Balenciaga T-shirt and completed her look with a pair of oversized sunglasses while styling her hair in chunky braids, according to the Daily Mail. 



 

That said, fans on social media were amused at Kim's unexpected nod to the South Yorkshire market town of Barnsley. "@KimKardashian here with Barnsley stamped across her backside (words you never think you'll say). Any recommendations as to where she should grab a pie and a pint? #Barnsley," The Yorkshire Post editor James Mitchinson tweeted.

"Kim Kardashian walking around with Barnsley on her bottom is not something we expected to be tweeting about today. Thank you @KimKardashian for putting Barnsley on the map and your *peach emoji*," the official handle for Barnsley Museums gushed. "Kim Kardashian has got Barnsley written on her a** I sh** you not we are fucking massive," another Twitter user quipped.
