Did Kendall Jenner break protocol at the Louvre?

Technically no, but her decision to go barefoot to a famous art museum in Paris is decidedly unorthodox. The 28-year-old model, who is spending time abroad for Paris Fashion Week, recently shared snaps from a midnight museum-exploring escapade (along with Bad Bunny), during which she was shoeless.

“Louvre at midnight,” Jenner captioned an Instagram post from Wednesday, June 26.

In the photo carousel, the model shared a series of photos of herself around the famous museum wearing a black square back top and a long black skirt with an asymmetrical hemline. While standing in front of works of art (including the Mona Lisa), Jenner stands with her back to the camera and her bare feet are visible.

Although official Louvre rules don’t mention anything about shoes, travel expert Nicole Campoy Jackson tells PEOPLE it’s likely unspoken protocol. “I’m sure the Louvre has seen it all, given the huge amount of traffic there every day, but I can’t imagine they often deal with visitors without shoes,” says Jackson. “This is more of an unwritten rule at the Louvre… and in most closed public places in general.”

Rules aside, Jackson points out that “there’s a level of respect for a place like the Louvre and the rich history and art within it that is belittled here.”

However, she also points out that this seems like an unusual opportunity that Jenner just couldn’t pass up. she sets. “Also, a member of the Kardashian clan is standing in front of the Mona Lisa in costume and then barefoot. Isn’t that something that keeps looking at us?”

Jackson also notes that Jenner’s visit happened after hours and was likely a private, paid tour.

“Most museums and tourist destinations have a private entry or tour policy,” she explains. “It will have a price and there will be parameters for any private visit before or after hours. The parameters will include whether or not visitors can bring food and drink, whether they can post about it on social media, the number of guests allowed, and so on.”

The Louvre did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
