Unrecognizable Kim Kardashian 'scares' fans with face piercings and blue hair in dramatic transformation — see wild new photos

Kim Kardashian is definitely taking Halloween seriously – potentially at the expense of one of her kids.

The mom-of-four, 45, took to social media to reveal that she's going extra hard this year for Halloween, debuting one of her first costumes – her own daughter, North West.

Kim Kardashian's Halloween costume

"Halloween 2026," the TV personality captioned a series of snaps of herself dressed like her 13-year-old daughter, complete with a long acid blue wig, fake piercings on her hands and face, and long nails with various appliqués to match her daughter's, hand over her mouth and everything.

For the actual outfit, paired with her wig, Kim styled herself in a black graphic tee, a spiked chain with a skull and crossbones pendant, a striped undershirt, spiked cuffs, and to top it off, North's signature black grills.

Fans immediately found themselves seeing double, many taken aback at just how eerily accurate the get-up was. "IM SHOOOOOOOK I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST POSTING YOUR DAUGHTER TWINS FOR SURE," one enthused.

Another added: "Wait I was so shocked hahahah," with a third going: "Who is doing it like you, Kimmy?" and a fourth writing: "I swear, Northieeeee directed this shootttttt."

And members of the Kardashian-Jenner family were just as impressed, with momager Kris Jenner commenting: "This is so fun!!!!!" and her sister Khloé adding: "Twins!!!!!!"

North West's distinct style

North's style has become a signature of sorts in recent years, especially in her musical persona (which is heavily inspired by her father, Kim's ex Kanye West). Her blue twin pigtails especially are derived from Japanese virtual pop star Hatsune Miku.

"Everyone's in love with boys, vaping and doing all kinds of bad stuff. All I want is blue hair and piercings," she told Dazed of her style, calling Hatsune Miku "just my twin for real."

"Her blue twin tails, of course," the teen added of what she most pulls from the J-pop idol. "That's always the inspo. Blue hair or nothing? Maybe I'll do black in it one day," although when it comes to sources of inspiration, she's a lot more open. "Everybody I listen to. Everybody I like. I take little bits of their swag and just make my own swag out of it."

She also spoke about making piercings her "signature" at such a young age, explaining: "They just make you your full self. I really want to get my bridge pierced, but I'm not allowed."

When asked what she wouldn't want to ever wear, North just said: "I'd wear anything. A few weeks ago, I'd be like, 'Oh hell no!' But now, after today, I'd wear anything for real. I like to try new things. But I do like to have my own style. It's just easy," and uses social media for further influences.

"I be using TikTok and Pinterest. I like to make moodboards for my nails and my hair. But also I just be making it up; I gotta draw it too, 'cause there's nothing on Pinterest. I can't find what I really want for real."
