THE PEARL COUTURE IMMEDIATELY MADE SOME PEOPLE THINK OF KIM'S CENTERFOLD DAYS.
Although the official theme was "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty," some joked that the mother of four's outfit was a tribute to her 2007 nudes.
SOME CRITICS NOTED THAT SHE DIDN'T REALLY STAY ON TREND WITH THIS YEAR'S THEME.

OTHERS ASKED IF SHE WAS WEARING THE SAME JEWELRY.
The looks are so similar that one person even tweeted at the reality star to find out if she reused some of the props from her original photos. "Is Kim Kardashian wearing her Playboy pearls to the met?"
