Kim Kardashians Met Gala Look Had 1 Detail So Extreme It Made People Uncomfortable

Just imagine how many Skims bodysuits must have been involved.

Kim Kardashian  courted controversy at Mondays Met Gala  due to a very uncomfortable-looking aspect of her wardrobe.

The reality TV star wore a custom Maison Margiela Artisanal gown by John Galliano with a metal corset so extreme, it basically snatched her waist to oblivion.

Kardashians practically nonexistent waist rattled people on X, formerly Twitter, for a variety of reasons. Some felt the shapewear line co-founder was once again reinforcing the same kind of unhealthy and impossible female beauty standards  with which she has long been associated . Other people just wondered how she could possibly breathe.

This is by no means the first time one of Kardashians Met Gala looks has received backlash. In 2022, she described having gone on a strict diet  to lose 16 pounds in three weeks so shed be able to fit into one of Marilyn Monroes vintage gowns at that years event.

The look caused her a few serious health issues, including a psoriasis breakout due to the extreme diet.

Psoriasis broke out over my body and I got psoriatic arthritis so I couldnt really move my hands, Kardashian told Allure in 2022. It was really painful, and I had to go to a rheumatologist who put me on a steroid. I was freaking out.
