Kim Kardashian sparks speculation over Elizabeth Taylor’s iconic cape

Speculation has arisen regarding whether Kim Kardashian has acquired the iconic ‘Scorpio Evening Cape’ once worn by Elizabeth Taylor. Kardashian was photographed during filming for the series ‘All’s Fair’ wearing an outfit nearly identical to the historic garment.

The cape, designed by Tiziani Roma, features a dramatic hood, ivory silk lining, and two embroidered scorpions. It gained fame when Taylor wore it in 1969 at Princess Grace of Monaco’s 40th birthday celebration, pairing it with the legendary 69.42-carat Taylor-Burton diamond necklace. The original cape was sold at a Christie’s auction in 2011 for $74,500.

It remains unconfirmed if Kardashian owns the original piece or if the garment is a replica created for the television production. Observations of a similar necklace worn by Kardashian have added to the speculation, though the appearance of actress Sarah Paulson in the same cape in a trailer suggests the production may have utilized multiple versions of the costume.
