An Australian stylist has weighed in on Kim Kardashian 's bold fashion choice at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's lavish Italian wedding celebration - and he didn't hold back.
Chris Kontos, an outspoken creative, shared a video to his Instagram on Saturday critiquing Kim's daring gown, which she showed off while arriving via boat to the star-studded event in Venice over the weekend.
In the clip, Kontos declared: 'All right. I have to say it - Kim needs to move on from the Balenciaga era. Like, Demna is in an exhibition - it's done. When something's exhibited, it means it's the end. It's like a period in time. We're reflecting.'
'Doesn't mean Rick Owens is dead in vibe - just putting it out there - he's still gonna deliver f**k-off vibes forever. But Kim?'
Referring to the bride, Kontos continued with a swipe: 'Do you reckon she's trying to get the attention away from that woman that's getting married - whatever her name is?'
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, s ubscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop.
The high-profile stylist, who has worked across Australia's fashion and retail industries for over two decades, went on to suggest Kardashian should embrace her own brand collaborations instead.
'Maybe she should wear some of that collaboration she did with SKIMS and Cavalli -because that fits the vibe.'
While clearly unimpressed by Kim's dark, glistening form-fitting gown, Kontos did offer some praise for her famous family.
'I mean, Kris looks amazing and Kylie's delivering rose vibes anyway,' he noted.

His portfolio includes work with Harris Scarfe, Acler, Rundle Mall, and Jac + Mooki.

Meanwhile, Kim turned heads at Bezos' extravagant celebration in a glittering, body-hugging black dress with a plunging neckline, styled with layered diamond jewellery and her signature sleek hair.
She was seen being assisted off a boat while flanked by security as she made her glamorous entrance.
The Amazon founder and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez tied the knot in front of 200 high-profile guests on the private island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice.
The A-list guest list included Oprah Winfrey, Barbra Streisand, Leonardo DiCaprio and Bill Gates.
Bezos and Sanchez's wedding weekend has captured global headlines.
