Kim Kardashian shared what she wore at her 2000 wedding to Damon Thomas in "Payback' A Bitch," the March 20th episode of The Kardashians. Now, you'd think she would wear a traditional wedding gown with all the bells and whistles, but no. Kim opted for a much simpler style.
When helping her cousin Natalie- the daughter of Kris's sister, Karen- try on Oscar de la Renta wedding gowns for her upcoming special day, Kim shared her attire when she married Damon Thomas, a recording producer ten years her senior. The two eloped in Las Vegas when she was only 19 and he was 29. They were together for four years before divorcing in 2004. In The Kardashians season 6 episode 5, "Khloéwood," Khloé helps Kim financially pay for the divorce with money from her Coca-Cola bottle bank.
As Natalie tried on dress after dress before selecting the first one, a strapless lace piece, Kim reflected on what she wore for her Vegas nuptials. Her look was entirely different than a dress as her wedding was a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Kim Kardashian's 2000 wedding outfit was peak Y2K fashion as described on The Kadashians
Y2K fashion, whether you loved or cringed at it, the 2000 decade's designs and homage to the Space aesthetic was one of the industry's most recognizable styles. In the past few years, Y2K has been making a comeback, not just in the clothes but in housewares, textiles, and even art.
Now Kim is adding to the turn of 20th century's resurrection in a reflection.
"[For] my first wedding, I wore leather capris with a leather halter top with no back and big Prada wedges. It was so cute," the reality star and mom of four shared with her family as Natalie decided on her wedding dress.
Kim's second wedding in 2011 was to NBA player Kris Humphries, and she went with a Princess theme in her dress by choosing designer Vera Wang to create a strapless in white vision.
"I really wanted a princess vibe because I was like, when else will I ever do this?," Kim said in the episode.
Their marital bliss was short-lived, as Kim filed for divorce from Humphries after 72 days. She cited irreconcilable differences, and according to People at the time of her divorce, she should have ended things prior to the wedding but got caught in the "hoopla " of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Yet, the event wasn't fake or created for ratings, as Kim married for love. It just didn't work out.
For her third wedding to Kanye West in 2014, Kim wore a Mermaid gown designed by Givenchy. The elaborate piece had lace detailing and a long train. The Kimye union produced four children and a divorce in 2021.
Earlier this month, Natalie married her fiancé Noah in La Jolla in the dress she chose in "Payback's A Bitch."
