Kris Jenner Owns Elizabeth Taylor's Scorpion Cape, and Kim Wore It for "All's Fair"

Kris Jenner brought genuine Old Hollywood to the“All’s Fair”Season 2 premiere in Rome, wearing Elizabeth Taylor’s custom Tiziani scorpion cape. The ivory silk-lined piece is embroidered with diamanté scorpions, and it’s not a lookalike. Taylor originally wore the cape to Princess Grace’s Scorpio-themed 40th birthday party in Monaco in 1969. Christie’s last sold it in 2011 for $74,500, and Jenner now owns it.

Kim Kardashian borrowed the cape for her role as Allura Grant, sharing the story on Instagram and calling herself lucky to have borrowed it from her mom. The cape also inspired creator Ryan Murphy, who wrote a Scorpion Ball episode after learning its history. Both Taylor and Jenner are Scorpios, and Jenner turns 71 on Nov. 5, just a day before the show’s Nov. 4 return.

A single garment connects Taylor, Princess Grace, and the Kardashian-Jenner family across nearly six decades. So would you wear a piece like this, or would it stay protected in a closet? Let us know on our socials.
