Oh Look! There’s A ‘Kimmy K Robbery Victim’ Costume Bc This World Is Garbage

Serious question: is the entire world one giant steaming pile of turd?

An online costume store has put up a ‘Kim Kardashian robbery‘ costume for sale, because apparently there aren’t already enough garbage opinions about the fact that a woman was tied up in her own hotel room and robbed.

(Here’s looking at you, Daily Telegraph.)

Although the costume website doesn’t mention Kim by name, it is explicitly obvious who they mean by there ‘Parisian Heist Robbery Victim Costume Kit‘, selling for US $69.99.

The description for it reads:

“This Halloween it’s all about the #Hallomeme and who better than America’s goddess of all things glamorous “Parisian Heist Robbery Victim Costume?” She has devoted her life to promoting American decadence, youth, and hedonism but all that flashy living caught up with her one night in Paris when armed men bound her, stole her jewelry and her peace of mind. This Halloween have some fun with pop culture and dress just like the Queen of Social media with our sensational “Parisian Heist Robbery Victim Costume” Costume.”

It comes with – and we’re quoting here – a white short sexy robe, long black wig, a ‘$4 million dollar ring’ (although they clarify it’s not actually worth $4M and is in fact made of plastic), large sunglasses, a fake gag, and two-metres of rope.

Unlike many of the other costumes on GarbageCostumes.com (not its real name), the Kimmy K one actually has a rating – of 2/5 stars. Presumably this is because a few people gave it 5/5 stars to counteract the large number of 1/5 stars.


“No matter your opinion about the person making light of assault is disgusting despicable waste of breath,”
says one 1/5 star review. “You are lower than dirt for even taking this to the drawing board, you horrible slight to humanity.”

“How dare you think someone being robbed is funny,” says another. “This is a serious situation, she is a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, and a friend, oh and how about SHE IS A FUCKING HUMAN BEING YOU SICK FUCKS. Find some fucking taste. I hope you never get robbed and have to experience trauma like that.”

Topical costumes are, of course, a mainstay of America‘s giant boner for Halloween. Amongst the usual costume categories of ‘Pirate’, ‘Historical’ etc, this particular website has an entire ‘Hot Takes‘ collection full of them, ranging from the adorable (‘Baby Left Shark Costume‘) to the utterly distasteful (i.e. the rest of them).

So JIC you happen to be friends with some knobjockey of a person who thinks this might even be a little bit funny, here’s your weekly reminder that the traumatic and violent incident of another human being is not a comedic goldmine.
