On Monday, her extremely narrow midsection caused quite a stir at the Met Gala. Now Kim Kardashian is giving a glimpse behind the scenes.
At this year’s Met Gala on Monday evening, reality star Kim Kardashian made an extravagant appearance as usual. However, when she saw her mini-waist corset dress, many observers wondered how the 43-year-old could even breathe in John Galliano’s creation for Maison Margiela.
The wildest speculations piled up on social media in a very short time. At X, a number of users were convinced that the influencer had several ribs removed for her appearance on the red carpet. It was even rumored that Kim Kardashian sacrificed an organ or two to fit into the dress.
“It’s an art form”
Now Kanye West’s ex-wife is clearing up the rumors. She shared a video from Vogue magazine on Instagram that shows her trying on the silver corset – with a normal waist. As her top is laced up, her stylists ask if she can still breathe in it. “It’s an art form, but it can be done,” replies Kim Kardashian.
However, this little inconvenience doesn’t seem to bother the influencer and entrepreneur too much. In the eight-minute clip, she continues to rave about how the cut makes her breasts and waist look “so good” despite the difficult breathing work.
However, the corset wasn’t the only fashion challenge for the 43-year-old at the Met Gala: She also wore specially made high heels without heels. “To wear these shoes, you have to stand on your tiptoes and balance the whole time by flexing your calf muscles,” she explains. The heel was omitted here so that it wouldn’t get caught in the lace train and cause her to fall on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
By the way, Kim Kardashian went straight from this year’s Met Gala to Hamburg. Just 18 hours after the end of the glamorous event, she appeared here at the OMR digital trade fair and told her numerous fans about her very personal use of social media.
