Kim Kardashian did not skimp on jewelry for her courtroom appearance in the 2016 Paris robbery trial.
After all, the Kardashians star was decked out in an estimated $8 million worth of bling, according to Lorel Diamonds jewelry expert Laura Taylor, as Kim took the stand on May 13 to testify against the suspects accused of robbing her at gunpoint at her hotel room almost 10 years ago.
In fact, the SKIMS founder wore an $8,100 diamond-studded, 18-karat white gold ear cuff from Briony Raymond to the legal proceeding, as well as a large emerald-cut diamond ring that was almost identical to the 20-carat piece from then-husband Kanye West that was stolen and never recovered by authorities.
She paired the statement-making ring with a diamond necklace and multiple earrings, which stood out against her all-black outfit.
But Kim hasn’t always this decked out in gems. In the years following the heist, during which over $10 million worth of jewelry was stolen, Kim steered cleared of wearing flashy jewels. As she noted in a 2023 episode of The Kardashians, she was “ready to give” up wearing diamonds altogether.
