Kim, 43, was seen in a floor-length white gown that seamlessly hugged her famous figure.
The dress featured mini slits on the side of her midsection and a triangular cutout on her chest, allowing the Hulu star to show off ample cleavage.
The top of the textured garment had straps that crossed over and fastened behind her neck for a halter design.
Kim completed her look with sharp black nails, a dark red lip color, and a hairstyle that appeared to look wet.
She had her waist-length locks left down with side bangs slightly swept over her forehead, opting for the damp hairstyle she and her sisters have been seen rocking lately.
As for Kris, the family matriarch attended the ceremony in an all-black ensemble composed of a floor-length skirt and oversized blazer.
Underneath, she went with a sheer black shirt that was paired with a low-cut top.
The mother-daughter duo was photographed on the red carpet at the Breakthrough Prize, choosing to opt out of the first weekend of this year’s Coachella Music Festival.
Kim last attended the annual music event in 2022 where she was a VIP at the Revolve Festival.
The event also came shortly after their family friend, OJ Simpson, died on Wednesday following his battle with cancer.
Kim’s latest look wasn’t one that hasn’t been seen before, as she has rocked a similar hairstyle in the past.
Near the end of last year, she showed up to the 2023 Baby2Baby Gala with a style that garnered some negative reactions from fans.
She similarly styled her long, dark hair to appear practically damp, which fans labeled as “wet, stringy, damaged, and greasy.”
“I don’t know why the Kardashians are pushing the wet hair look so hard, because it looks absolutely dreadful, and really isn’t something a non-celebrity could wear for a nice occasion or daily wear,” another wrote.

“It’s not a flattering look to me; it makes hair look oily and straggly,” they added.
Weeks later, she received similar criticism while rocking the wet-haired look at a Los Angeles Lakers game.
“She looks greasy and oily and gross like she crawled out of a sewer,” someone slammed at the time.
Kim’s younger sister, Kylie Jenner, 26, also opted for the new hairstyle at this year’s Paris Fashion Week.
The Kardashians star arrived at the Maison Margiela fashion show donning a stunning silver number and wet hair, which draped over her face.
COPYCAT KIM?
Kim has been making headlines for her latest outfits, as some fans believe she may be copying the style of her ex Kanye West’s new wife, Bianca Censori.
Kim and the rap music star were married from 2014 to 2021 and have four children together: North, 10; Saint, eight; Chicago, six; and Psalm, four.
On Friday, the reality star attended her son Saint’s basketball game in an all-black Balenciaga outfit that covered her curvy figure.
The black jacket was extremely oversized, and the large puffy sleeves fell past her wrists and covered her hands.
Underneath, the Kardashian wore a black pair of boots connected to a pair of pants.
The outfit was similar to something Bianca, 29, wore just months before.
Bianca, who married the rapper in December 2022, was spotted wearing an oversized black jacket with sleeves covering her wrists and hands.
Kim has been accused of mimicking Bianca’s style in the past and was even called out for possibly copying her nose after fans claimed she got cosmetic surgery.
In mid-March, Kim went braless underneath a brown fur coat while one of her breasts was nearly exposed, leaving fans to compare the look to one of Bianca’s.
Last week, Kim was also called out for her slicked-back hairstyle, which fans claimed made her look similar to the Yeezy architectural designer.
“Kim, this is embarrassing. Your ex husband doesn’t want you back, even if you (are trying to) look like his new wife,” someone ripped.
