When Kim Kardashian arrived at The Peninsula Hotel in Paris on September 24, 2014, she provided a masterclass in monochromatic styling.
Attending the Buro 24/7 Fashion Forward Initiative in Paris, Kim Kardashian also helped spotlight the rising label A.W.A.K.E. (All Wonderful Adventures Kindle Enthusiasm), founded in 2012 by Natalia Alaverdian.

Known for its sculptural tailoring and architectural silhouettes, the brand has attracted a growing celebrity following — with stars like Olivia Wilde also embracing A.W.A.K.E.’s modern designs.
The London-based label has even pushed the boundaries of footwear with its avant-garde asymmetrical shoe designs, reflecting the same bold, architectural approach seen in its ready-to-wear collections.
While Kardashian is often known for trend-setting silhouettes, this specific look remains a timeless reference for pairing architectural mini dresses with high-end Italian footwear.

For the event, Kim Kardashian wore a crisp white A.W.A.K.E. mini dress defined by its sculptural geometric front panel. She finished the polished monochrome look with a pair of sleek Gianvito Rossi pumps.
Founded in Milan in 2006, Gianvito Rossi’s eponymous label is celebrated for its elegant, minimalist heels designed to enhance the female silhouette — including iconic styles like the Gianvito 105 pump and the delicate Portofino sandal.
