Kim Kardashian’s controversial 2024 Met Gala look certainly got people talking on social media - and it seems the outfit did, in fact, leave the star "breathless".
As previously reported, the 43-year-old reality TV star attended the 2024 Met Gala, which took place on Monday (May 6) in New York City.
The extravaganza has been organized and presided over by Anna Wintour since 1995 and has become one of the most precious events on the fashion calendar.
The dress code for this year was 'The Garden in Time,' inspired by a short story of the same name by JG Ballard. The theme coincides with the Costume Institute’s ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’ exhibit.
The SKIMS mogul caused a stir online with her look for the event as she sported an eye-catching silver Maison Margiela corset-style dress accessorized with a simple grey shawl.
The corset was so tight and constricting that she needed assistance from attendees to make her way up the Metropolitan Museum of Art steps.
After sharing a series of photos of her in the dress on her Instagram page, many of her 363 million followers slammed her look, with people branding it “scary”, “unhealthy”, and “painful”.
“I’m sorry I am a fan but the waist in this photo is not ok,” one person commented. Another user added: “I respect the branding beast she is as well as the style but the waist is scary.”
“To all the ladies, this isn’t natural don't think for one sec this is what you need to look like,” a third user added. “Unhealthy standards and unhealthy looking," a fourth remarked.
