Some critics think that The Met’s theme for their Costume Institute’s spring exhibition, titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, snubbed Kim, 43.
“The Met Gala theme has just been announced, and it’s lowkey a dig to Kim Kardashian,” one person presented in a video shared on TikTok.
Typically The Met chooses a theme based on the exhibit happening in the museum’s Costume Institute.
Over 30,000 costumes exist within the Costume Institute.
This year’s exhibition will be “structured around 50 historical pieces” that are unable to be worn again because they’re “too fragile,” according to the fan in the video.
The iconic event will utilize CGI, special lighting, and AI to bring the ensembles to life.
The video’s commentator explained that the upcoming exhibition theme would ensure no one would “squeeze into” an antique dress, risking messing it up like Kim did for the 2022 Met Gala.
The Skims founder made headlines after she was accused of destroying the late Marilyn Monroe’s Happy Birthday, Mr. President dress when putting it on to wear to the gala that year.
NOT CLOSE ENOUGH
Kim claimed that she lost 16 pounds to fit into the look.
But apparently, it wasn’t enough, as a new video shared by TMZ showed her butt popping out of a massive hole in the back.
In the clip, the businesswoman was joined by her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson, 29, as they visited Ripley’s Believe It Or Not in Orlando, Florida.
The wacky museum pulled out the gown 10 days before it made its Met Gala debut, and a room full of people used their strength to get the TV personality into the dress.
But the gown, which was originally worn by Marilyn Monroe when she sang “Happy Birthday Mr. President” to JFK, was unable to fit over her rear end.
In a shocking moment, the crew was forced to leave the back of the gown open to avoid ripping, exposing Kim’s underwear.
As a result, she covered the gaping hole with a vintage white coat.
According to sources, the Hulu star ended up wearing the original dress on the red carpet but quickly changed into a replica afterward for comfort purposes.
Insiders also revealed that the gown was never cleaned after Marilyn wore it, and dirt stains remained on the bottom.
The museum purchased the nude-colored garment from Julien’s Auctions back in 2016 for $4.81 million.
In addition to the iconic dress, Ripley’s also gifted Kim a piece of the platinum blonde icon’s hair, a relic that she said she will be “sleeping with every night. Sorry, Pete!”
FAN FURY
However, fans were not pleased after the new videos emerged, as they took to Reddit to claim that she “destroyed” the timeless outfit.
“This is so infuriating! It’s so delicate that gloves must be worn while handling it but Kim is allowed to destroy it like this? Ok,” one ranted.
“I don’t understand her logic at all. She can’t fit into the dress. She couldn’t even zip it up or get anywhere near zipping it up. She struggled to go up the damned stairs in it, but I guess she is so far up her own a** that she felt she NEEDED to actually wear the dress and have pictures taken in it,” a second complained.
“It was a stupid, stupid choice. All of it, and shame of vogue for having it in their magazine. I’m just stunned so many put her on their best-dressed list. Anyone that does losses any credibility in my eyes.”
A third asked: “What’s the point of wearing it when it gets stretched and destroyed like this?”
“She had to lose 16 lb to fit into the dress. But she doesn’t fit into the dress? And no amount of weight loss is going to help her fit into the dress because of her BBL. None of this makes sense and I hate it,” another snarked.
“Do people still think this was a good look?? It looks so stupid. Imagine walking a red carpet in a dress that doesn’t even fit you and your whole a** is out so you hide it with a coat? Instead of wearing something that fits?” a fifth mentioned.
“Disgraceful b***h,” a final put shortly.
