In a joint interview with Lauren, Kim told Vogue, “I’m a big auction girl. and my strategy was to come in last minute. I called ‘We’ll share it!’ [across the room] . I thought, you wear it once, I’ll wear it once, it’ll be so cute!” In the end, Kering offered to make two dresses, and both women paid $200,000 and traveled to Paris together for the fitting.

Meanwhile, Kim went on to add that she and Lauren are always in touch with each other via their DMs and described the bride-to-be as a “girl’s girl” She said, “Lauren and I are always sending DMs building each other up. Every time there’s a look that we like, she’ll say, ‘WOW,’ or, ‘OMG you look amazing.’ She’s such a girl’s girl!”

In August, the couple held a lavish engagement party with a select group of friends aboard the billionaire’s $500 million superyacht. They were joined by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and his partner Paula Hurd, Wendi Murdoch, the ex-wife of media mogul Rupert Murdoch and socialite Fabiola Beracasa Beckman for the “intimate” affair aboard the Bezos’ beloved Kora in the breathtaking Positano, Italy, according to Page Six.

Jeff proposed to the former broadcaster aboard Kora off the coast of Cannes in May. A source told the New York Post’s Page Six column at the time, “They were all over each other. I mean, they’re always affectionate, but they could not keep their hands off each other.”
