She is accustomed to making headlines for her skin-baring ensembles, but it was Bianca Censori's giant handbag that caught the eye as she stepped out at Melbourne International Airport on Tuesday ahead of her flight back to Los Angeles.
Bianca's Airport Style
The 31-year-old wife of rapper Kanye West was spotted clutching a black Hermès Haut à Courroies 50 bag as she hugged her mother Alexandra farewell outside the airport. The giant accessory, which has been discontinued and regularly fetches between AU$35,000 and AU$75,000 on the luxury resale market, dwarfed the glamorous architect as she parted ways from her mother and strolled towards the departure gates.
While most travellers dress down for long-haul flights, Bianca displayed her unique sense of style by wearing a cream, shearling-lined coat and silver platform stiletto heels. She completed her look with a pair of pink leggings and slim-frame sunglasses, while tying her light brown hair into pigtails.
Celebrity Fans of the Haut à Courroies 50
Bianca is one of several celebrities who have been spotted with the coveted Haut à Courroies 50 bag. In 2023, Kanye's ex-wife Kim Kardashian made headlines when she sported an ultra-rare grey crocodile HAC in New York. Her mother Kris Jenner has also carried an exotic matte black crocodile HAC 50 reportedly worth more than USD $200,000.
Low-Key Homecoming in Melbourne
It comes after a low-key homecoming for Bianca, who spent the past few days catching up with her family in Melbourne. On Sunday, she was spotted enjoying a stroll with her mother, father Leo, and sister Angelina. For this outing, Bianca wore the same shearling-lined coat paired with ballet shoe inspired flats. At one point, Bianca was seen having a lively conversation with her father Leo, who tenderly wrapped his arm around her as they made their way through the leafy streets.
The wholesome family outing was a stark contrast to Bianca's racy outing with Kanye in Los Angeles days earlier. The couple were spotted using the back door to stand-up comedy club Hollywood Improv, with Bianca turning heads in a skimpy black leather bandeau top that barely covered her chest. She teamed the tiny top with skintight sparkly pantyhose and stiletto heels.
Kim Kardashian's Fashion Inspiration
It also comes after Kanye's ex-wife Kim Kardashian appeared to channel Bianca while attending the 2026 Met Gala in a sculpted fembot ensemble. Kardashian, 45, seemingly 'copied' Censori's risqué style as she walked the red carpet in an orange metallic bodysuit by British artist Allen Jones and Whitaker Malem that had a custom-molded breast plate on the front. The outfit took inspiration from Jones's poster for the 1975 French erotic film Maîtresse and was controversial in both the US and UK upon its release.
In November last year, Censori stepped out in a fembot-inspired look while spending time with her family in Melbourne. The SKIMS founder has previously been trolled for seemingly copying the architect's daring style.
