Kim, who boasts 133 million followers on Instagram, accessorised her flowing white dress with gold Indian-inspired jewellery, including the headpiece typically worn at times of celebration.
The photo made a stir when it was shared online.
One user said that “culture is not a costume” and that it was wrong for Kim to adorn it.
“This is not a Sunday Service Vibe, it’s an Indian vibe,” another complained.
