Kim Kardashian brought plenty of sparkle to Rome as she stepped out in a sheer black gown draped with crystal strands that reached almost to the ground.

The 46-year-old was seen at the Bulgari Hotel on October 24, wearing a lingerie-inspired design with a plunging black bra top and a pale pink satin waist panel.

Silver floral embellishments covered the bodice, while delicate crystal chains fell from her shoulders and continued down the length of her skirt. Cutouts beneath the bust revealed her midriff, and the floor-length black lace offered a glimpse of the underwear beneath.

The reality TV star swept her dark hair into a sleek high ponytail, finishing the look with defined lashes, softly contoured cheeks and a glossy nude lip.

The bespoke Erdem dress was inspired by the label's spring 2027 collection with Law Roach styling the look. 

Kim was smiling alongside her mother, Kris Jenner, at the hotel entrance. Kris wore a leopard-print jacket and matching knee-length skirt with contrasting textured trim, adding black boots, sunglasses and sparkling stud earrings.

The Italian outing came just days after Kim's birthday on October 21, with her celebrations beginning back in California.

She gathered family and friends at Baldi inside the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills on October 20, later sharing photographs on Instagram with the simple caption: "Birthday Girl."

Her birthday wardrobe included two vintage Paco Rabanne looks from 1995, in ruby and chartreuse, complete with jeweled accessories. Photographs showed her enjoying dinner, singing into a fork alongside sister Khloé Kardashian and blowing out candles on a raspberry-topped cake.

Paris Hilton added her own message beneath the post, writing: "Happy Birthday love."

Kim's Rome wardrobe has already provided another memorable fashion moment. On October 23, she visited the Bulgari boutique with Kris wearing a flowing white gown with a deeply plunging neckline and towering platform heels.

The trip also coincides with renewed attention on Kim's acting career. All's Fair returns for its second season on November 4, with Kim reprising her role as divorce attorney Allura Grant.

She stars alongside Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close and Teyana Taylor. The new season follows shifting loyalties within the women's law firm, with three episodes arriving at launch before weekly installments. 

Away from her character's courtroom battles, Kim has been candid about the pressure of proving herself as an actress.

On the October 22 episode of The Kardashians, she revealed that criticism of her performance in All's Fair had left her questioning whether to continue with her upcoming comedy, The Fifth Wheel, directed by Eva Longoria.

Kim said she offered to withdraw from the project, concerned about bringing further scrutiny to the production. Ultimately, however, the experience strengthened her determination to improve: "If I suck in this, then it's over for me."
