North West, the 13-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, has once again captured attention with a bold fashion statement. At the Vetements Menswear Spring/Summer 2027 show during Paris Fashion Week on Friday, the teenager debuted two new angel bite piercings on her top lip. A video circulating online quickly drew fans' notice as they spotted the fresh additions to her face.
Facial Piercings and Iconic Style
In addition to the new lip piercings, North displayed her existing facial piercings, which include two studs on her cheek below one eye and a stud on the bridge of her nose. For the fashion outing, she opted for her signature electric blue wig, paired with a long-sleeved black shirt, a mini skirt, and tights. She completed the look with black combat boots and accessorized with a custom-designed, diamond-encrusted spike choker and a matching hand band crafted by Alex Moss NYC for North. It remains unclear whether the new piercings are real or faux studs.
Previous Piercings and Public Reaction
This latest piercing debut follows North's introduction of several hand piercings in February, which sparked backlash directed at both her and her mother. North has openly expressed her love for piercings and tattoos, clapping back at critics through her song "Piercing on My Hand," a collaboration with her father Kanye. The song's lyrics include lines such as, "Piercing on my hand, the other holding bands" and "I'm not sure I'm crazy / I want more piercings and tats / I love blue hair put it in some plaits."
Ongoing Trend of Body Modifications
North's evolving style continues to generate conversation, particularly given her young age. The teenager's willingness to experiment with piercings and bold fashion choices reflects her growing independence and influence, often drawing comparisons to her parents' own iconic styles. As she navigates the public eye, each new accessory or modification sparks debate among fans and critics alike.
