Kim Kardashian has been having an unpleasant experience at the Met Gala since wearing the most expensive Marilyn Monroe iconic dress back in 2022. Here are some details about Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe's dress at the Met Gala :
- *Dress History*: Kim Kardashian wore the same dress Marilyn Monroe wore to sing “Happy Birthday” to President John F. Kennedy in 1962.
- *Description*: The dress is a flesh-colored, figure-hugging column gown covered in rhinestones, inspired by a Bob Mackie sketch for costume designer Jean-Louis.
- *Met Gala*: The dress was perfect for the theme of the 2022 Met Gala, Gilded Glamour.
- *Procurement*: Kim Kardashian procured the dress from Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum in Orlando, who bought the dress in 2016 for $4.8 million.
- *Precautions*: Due to the dress being a precious part of history, plenty of precautions were taken. The dress was handled by guards and gloves, and it couldn’t be altered, so Kim Kardashian lost 16 pounds to fit into it.
- *Wearing the dress*: Kim Kardashian only wore the real dress for the customary walk up the stairs of the museum, before changing into a replica of the gown once she reached the event.
