The reality star rocked a statement-making ballgown for her night out in Austria

Kim Kardashian had a bit of a princess moment, wearing a full-skirted ballgown to the Vienna Opera Ball Thursday night.

But she still managed to inject her signature sexy style into the glammed-up look.

For the opulent affair, Kim chose a two-tone dress with a sheer cutout top, a champagne-coloured satin skirt and a sexy lace-up back.

So what was the new mum, 33, doing at the Vienna Opera Ball? It seems she was paid by 81-year-old Austrian billionaire Richard Lugner to be his date for the evening. (No doubt Kris Jenner set that one up!)

Lugner has excorted a bevy of beauties to the ball in years past - including Pamela Anderson, Paris Hilton, Carmen Electra and Hilary Swank.

The going rate to rent a celebrity date is reportedly between £90k and £600k - and we're guessing Kim's business savvy mum (who was on hand for the evening) pushed for the maximum.
