Kim Kardashian is bringing serious vintage Hollywood energy to“All’s Fair”Season 2. Her character, Allura Grant, steps out in a re-created version of Elizabeth Taylor’s legendary Scorpio Evening Cape, the black velvet Tiziani Roma piece embellished with scorpions and lined in ivory silk. Taylor originally wore it to Grace Kelly’s 40th birthday“Scorpio Ball”in 1969, accessorized with the jaw-dropping 69.42-carat Taylor-Burton Diamond. The original cape sold at Christie’s in 2011 for $74,500 including buyer’s premium. In the new trailer, Sarah Paulson’s character also wears the cape, suggesting the production made more than one version for the season.
The zodiac connection adds an extra layer of fun. Taylor was a Scorpio, born February 27, which made the cape a perfect fit for the Scorpio Ball. Kardashian’s birthday is October 21, just two days before Scorpio season begins. So she’s wearing a Scorpio cape while being a Libra. It’s a bold move and honestly very on-brand for Kim.
Whether you’re here for the fashion, the Elizabeth Taylor nostalgia, or the astrology drama, this look is bound to spark some conversation.“All’s Fair”Season 2 is streaming on Hulu, and if the trailer is any indication, the wardrobe is going to be a major talking point. Would you wear a zodiac cape that doesn’t match your sign? Let us know!
