North West launched her own Instagram page on Christmas Day, showcasing a new look that sparked mixed reactions from her followers regarding the 12-year-old’s style.
The daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who has been outspoken about not wanting his children on social media, shared nine photos on the account, which is described as ‘managed by parents’ in the bio.
North appeared in an all-white ensemble, praised by Lil Tay as ‘swag overload,’ featuring turquoise hair, stylish sneakers, and what seem to be diamond-studded grillz. Her photos were simply captioned with a water emoji, symbolizing her new ‘drip’.
Despite her controversial piercings and previously debated outfits, the reaction from North’s over 700,000 Instagram followers was mixed. Some praised her as ‘iconic,’ while others felt she ‘looks too damn grown’.
With Kim as her billionaire mother, North’s tastes appear to be quite lavish. However, she seems to have also inherited some of her father’s unique style, a well-known rapper with a flair for avant-garde fashion.
The custom diamond grillz are believed to have been crafted by luxury jeweler Johnny Dang, with Kim reportedly acquiring them two weeks prior when seen with the Houston-based jeweler.
Some commenters speculated that the ornate dental piece might cost up to $50,000—a staggering figure for many, yet likely insignificant for someone whose mother is worth nearly $2 billion.
While some criticized the extravagant display of wealth, others understood her inclination to flaunt it. One comment read: “She doing the same shi i would’ve done at 12 if i had that money. Let the girl live.”
Another user noted: “Yall know her parents rich ?! lol mannn if I was her as a 12 year old!”
This was North’s third post on her new Instagram profile, which has quickly amassed 790,000 followers in under a week. Her first post attracted 1.8 million likes, drawing attention from beyond her follower base.
The Christmas post featuring her diamond-studded look received 710,000 likes and over 7,000 comments.
There was a consensus that Kanye would likely disapprove of North’s social media activity, reflecting his past objections. One commenter stated, “She’s too young bro Kanye was right,” while another remarked: “This kid is 12 she should be watching Peppa Pig learning her times tables and doing arts and crafts… what’s happening here kmt.”
Despite some finding North’s appearance unsettling, the majority appeared to support her exploration of her style.
Iconic singer Erykah Badu gave her approval, commenting with four blue hearts under North’s festive post.
