Did She Or Did She Not Ruin Marilyn's Dress?
Kim Kardashian sparked outrage and caused quite a stir online when she graced the met gala in the famous dress worn by actress Marilyn Monroe when she serenaded late President John Kennedy on his birthday. Fans and critics like the piece's designer Bob Mackie weighed in on the controversial moment. Some sighted the gown as important memorabilia of the country's history and others criticized Kim for dieting and losing more than 15 pounds for the dress to fit. Kim only got to wear the dress for a short while to make the grand entrance at the MET gala steps after which she changed into a replica which she wore for the rest of the evening. Ripley's museum who had been gracious enough to let miss Kardashian borrow it, through their publishing and the licensing vice president put out a statement to dispute the claims that the dress was damaged. The vice president, Mrs. Amanda Joiner said in a published statement that the dress was in mint condition from the moment Kim stepped out of the chamber to when she got to the top of the steps when she took it off. At the gala, Kim got into the famous dress at a makeshift chamber at the bottom of the steps. Ms. Amanda stressed that she stayed with the delicate gown while it was in transit from the museum to New York and even during the whole event. Monroe wore the dress while serenading President John F. Kennedy with a rendition of “Happy Birthday” at a 1962 fundraiser. Kardashian felt it was a perfect choice for a Met Gala that had a theme of “Gilded Glamour.”
