Kim Kardashian’s mystery date has been revealed after fans believed that she was joined by ex-husband Kanye West.

Kardashian, 40, was joined by Balenciaga Creative Director Demna Gvasalia in matching full-body black outfits.

The Balenciaga designer joined his muse in a black hoodie, fully-covered face mask, black pants, and slippers as the two embodied the fashion statement.

Meanwhile, Kardashian’s outfit was brutally mocked online.

We are yet to hear from Kardashian on how her look is related to the dress code.

After her arrival, fans took to social media en masse to mock the Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum, comparing her to a “dementor” from Harry Potter.

The questionable display feels like a massive plug for West’s new album, Donda.

Kardashian earlier hinted at adopting this sort of look for today’s event after checking into her New York hotel at the weekend wearing a similar all black leather outfit.

The ensemble, which she wore as she arrived at the Ritz-Carlton, included stiletto heel boots, loose-fitting pants, trench coat and complete head covering with room for a ponytail to stick out the back.

The number is a far-cry from Kardashian’s usually glitzy and glamorous Met Gala outfits.

In 2019, the reality star looked as if she’d just stepped out of the ocean in a latex Thierry Mugler number splashed with beaded crystals, which took eight months to craft.

The costume gala, which is celebrating an all-American theme this year, was cancelled in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Met Gala is an annual fundraising event which raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, and is one of the leading sources of funding with contributions anticipated to have surpassed $270 million in total after the 2019 event.
