The Item: Lil Kim Attends Marc Jacobs Fall 2018 Show in Rolled Jumpsuit Look. The original Queen Bee strutted herself in her designer streetwear while attending the MJ couture show with hip hop star, Cardi B in New York City.

You Asked: Lil Kim is giving me vintage Kim tonight! I loved y’alls Stories and runway posts and I saw that Kim wore what Bella Hadid had on. But when I went to the Marc Jacobs IG I didn’t see any pictures of Bella in that outfit. So is Kim’s look by Marc?

Ask and Tell: Lil Kim Attends Marc Jacobs Fall 2018 Show in Rolled Jumpsuit Look

The Verdict: Hello, thanks for the awesome style question! In short, yes Lil Kim is in fact wearing a look by designer Marc Jacobs. However, it is not one from his latest collection that debuted at New York Fashion Week. His recent designs are apart of the Fall 2018 RTW (Ready to Wear) line. Nonetheless, Kim’s urban chic ensemble is a look from the Marc Jacobs Spring 2018 collection. So same year, just different
