The Kardashians star shocked fans when she arrived at Paris Fashion Week on January 23, donning a lifelike lion\u2019s head on her shoulder. Kylie\u2019s black Schiaparelli dress was made of \u201cfoam, wool, and silk faux fur, and hand-painted to look as life-like as possible,\u201d the brand revealed on Instagram. \u201cNO ANIMALS WERE HARMED IN MAKING THIS LOOK,\u201d the brand clarified, making it abundantly clear that the elaborate animal head is fake. The 25-year-old also shared an Instagram post, showing off her controversial gown. \u201cBEAUTY AND THE BEAST,\u201d she wrote in the caption. \u201cWow, I loved wearing this faux art creation constructed by hand using manmade materials. beautiful beautiful.\u201d Kylie Jenner slammed for wearing lion head dress Despite the fact that the lion head is faux, many users still criticized the reality star and accused her of promoting trophy hunting. \u201cThis normalisation of trophy hunting is so wrong. Using the natural beauty of wildlife to \u2018shock\u2019 and stir controversy. How sad and empty,\u201d one wrote in the comments. \u201cIt\u2019s not cool at all, even if it\u2019s faux, stop promoting the cruelty against the animals,\u201d another commented. \u201cCome on Kylie\u2026 I love you but come on. Man-made or not, promoting the acceptance of wearing animals as trophies is never okay,\u201d a third shared. Surprisingly, animals rights organization PETA, who\u2019s called out the Kardashians numerous times, came to Kylie\u2019s defense. \u201cKylie, Naomi, and Irina\u2019s looks celebrate the beauty of wild animals and may be a statement against trophy hunting,\u201d PETA\u2019s President told Page Six Style. \u201cThese fabulously innovative three-dimensional animal heads show that where there\u2019s a will, there\u2019s a way.\u201d At the time of writing, Kylie Jenner has not yet responded to the backlash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
