It is redemption time for reality (skin show) star Kim Kardashian.

Last year at The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute benefit gala Kim fought her way to get invited at the most talked about and fashionable evening of the year

But Kim had a serious costume misfire in a bright floral printed gown.

This year the Kardashian torch bearer was clearly set on fashion redemption as she was spotted heading with Kanye West to this year's ball wearing a plunging Lanvin dress on Monday in New York.

During the 84th Annual Academy Awards Angelina Jolie looked ravishing in a black velvet Atelier Versace gown with a thigh-high slit.

But Jolie soon became the butt of all jokes. She was being mocked at for her outrageous posing at the Academy Awards.

The 36-year-old actress' strange pose of sticking out her right leg has been the subject of much ridicule.

‘The Descendants’ writer Jim Rash mimicked her stance as he took to the stage to collect the Oscar for best adapted screenplay.

The ‘Lara Croft’ star’s puzzling behaviour also resulted in a twitter page being set up, called @AngiesRightLeg.

But now Angie must feel vindicated wearing that high slit and posing for the cameras.

Angelina Jolie's leggy Versace dress at the 2012 Oscars started a slow burn trend that still has celebrities showing off their buffed gams at red carpet events.

Kim Kardashian pulled an Angelina at this year's MET Gala with her leggy Lanvin showing a bit too much skin (which she anyway finds difficult to keep in check).

 

But do you think Kim pulls off the attitude with which Angelina faces the camera?
