- Recently, Kim Kardashian wore the iconic Marilyn Monroe’s “Happy Birthday” dress. Her outfit has lead to a fierce debate among fashionistas and curators about the ethics of wearing historic fashion. What do you think? Is it ever acceptable for historically significant fashion to be reworn?

marilyn specifically said she wanted the dress to be something just for herself, it’s highly disrespectful to go against the wishes of the deceased.
100% agree
Holy shit that makes it a whole different story that is extremely disrespectful
When did she say
@@catvalentine4163 in 1962, when she found out she would be performing her song for jfk, she called her designer and told him “I want you to design a truly historical dress, a dazzling dress that's one of a kind.” and specifically, a dress that “only marilyn monroe could wear.” this dress was made specifically for her measurements and so precise that she had to be sewn into it, it represents a very important moment in women’s history. it’s very special and not something to be worn by someone who it wasn’t made for, and definitely not for something like the gala. even disregarding the historical significance of the dress and possible damages it may have suffered, she explicitly said that the dress would be something only she can wear, just for her. i’m sorry i don’t know the dates of the call, but i just know it was in 1962 before jfk’s birthday.
Agree I feel like this was beyond disrespectful and that she should not have done that
The fact that Kim didn't care about damaging Monroe's dress says a lot more about Kim
The fact that the gallery of museum this piece was, rent the dress for her, says more..
She didn’t damage it
@@mae7586 she did.
@@mae7586 the zipper was ruined, The fabric was torn, many of the gems have fallen out, and sweat and makeup has been mixed into the dress. While some things can be fixed, enough of the damage is irreversible.
@@mae7586 she did, there’s photo proof of the back having being ripped, beads have fallen off and the dress was specifically made for Monroe and Monroe only, Kim disregarded Monroe’s wishes of the dress only to ever be worn by her and only her
The reality of this situation is that Marilyn had this dress created specifically for her, and actually asked that when she died, no one else was to wear the dress. It was her dress. She wanted it to be special and one of a kind, never to be worn by anyone else. It’s genuinely disgusting that Kim Kardashian of all people defiled the wishes of Marilyn, and I wish people cared a little bit more.
Where does it say that she said this
I think way too many people blame Kim Kardashian for this. I don't know where you got this information on Marilyn's wishes but to my understanding, it's a specific information spread across people in the fashion or history field, rather than common general knowledge. So I don't think Kim would have known prior to asking for the authorization to wear this dress : it was someone's job to tell her and they didn't do it. Same goes for the damages that happened, someone could have told her no and explained that this could happen.
Even if the Kardashians insisted, I understand they would be threatening seeing how powerful they must be with all their money.. But the press of Kim K trying to push for this to a conservator just trying to protect an artefact would have made such an obvious good guy and bad guy that this would have been a ridiculous argument to have..
To me this is on Ripley's, they simply didn't do their job and what they owed this dress.
It’s honestly just frustrating that it was Kim K of all people. Of course she also physically ruined the dress. To compare yourself to someone so historically appreciated, is a bold move.
2016
Also when u search Marilyn Monroes dress YOU SEE KIM WEARING IT NOT MARILYN
"Shows her respect for fashion history"
Yeah. By destroying an amazing peice of fashion history
Just smh 🤦♀️🤦♀️
when u realize that kim also made a replica of that dress and could've just worn it instead, but no 🙂
Ikr, instead she had tu ruin the real dress
She wanted to feel special! 😃
The thing is, she wore both. She was changed into the replica right after the walk, which is almost even more insulting because the dress is almost identical besides the fact that the replica actually fit her and wasn't destroyed by her different body type to the original dress's owner.
Like even if she wanted the drama, she could've have taken the dress, store it and let people believe she used it, then return it in perfect conditions...
@@tetraganii oh my god 😦 i can't
Aren't they rich enough to get a remake done that idk actually fits her...smh
she did have a replica that she wore once off the red carpet, which makes this even more ridiculous
@@Outandalout I didn’t know that but yes, I 100% agree with you
She did wear a replica at the after party but the whole point was to wear ,,the dress" that Marylin Monroe wore(srry if i spelled anything wrong)
@@ioanaburcin7786 I get where you’re coming from, but it begs the question why she didn’t just remain wearing the replica of the dress the whole time? She has ruined a piece of history now. She should’ve used this as a chance to explain to people why preserving historical dresses is so important. That’s what makes it so infuriating, Marilyn Monroe wanted to be the first and last person to wear this dress, but unfortunately this wasn’t the case.
They do buy think abt Narcistic Kim, she need to ne nr 1 eberywhere so yes she took the original one to just show off and what would happen to that dress later on she dont care.....
What breaks my heart the most is the fact that Marilyn Monroe has been used and abused all throughout her career. The fact that even in her death, some form of her is still being exploited for a quick clout with the bare minimum of not even fitting the theme of the event is just devastating.
Kim Kardashian completely lied when she said she is a fan of Marilyn Monroe because a genuine fan wouldn't do this to her memory.
Agreed x
K.K has even get locks up Marilyn's hair..But I wholeheartedly agree with you, I can't have said it better... My son's was doing a project on Norma Jean, Before the name change and been famous, And crap about Kim still pop up.
Another sad thing is that when you look up "Marilyn Monroe dress" images of Kim show up 🙁
Ugh i might gonna go vomit-🤢
Ripley put that stupid shawl and a picture of Kim and the story beside the dress. You can bet she paid them off to do so
What it boils down to, though, she rented a dress from Ripley's Believe It or Not 😂
Ripley's shouldn't even have that dress
I sincerely hope the Met Gala doesn't invite that classless clan next year. They took over the event
Ugh ugh ugh that's disgusting ☹️
Yeahhh no. Just googled it and it immediately showed me Marilyn with her iconic white dress blow up moment
The designer has come out saying he wasn't happy about her wearing a dress that Marilyn was stitched into
He was super disappointed… if you look at the updated dress it has jewels missing and it’s stretched out along the back seams 🧵 Absolutely disrespectful AF
@@angelicaduncan9694 i have seen them and my SIL and brother have pictures of the dress from when they saw it in 19. I don't understand why Kumdumpsterian had ruin the real dress when she had a replica made
Where was he before? He could have stopped her!
@@rimsharims345 hes in his 90s now. He didn't know about it until the met gala happened
@@rimsharims345 blame the museum, they lended it to kim.
Uh, y’all probably haven’t heard the update, she damaged the dress and the back is all torn out, lotta crystal beads fell of she basically ruined the dress ✨
NOOOOOOOO!!!!
Rich privilege. That’s crazy
@@jellybeanboy my exact reaction
I saw the pictures and it's not "basically ruined" it'll look fine when it goes back in the display case.
@@mkg2124 the fabric is torn and stretched, to fix that they gonna have to change the entire fabric, basically making a new dress cause the old one is fucked. I don’t understand why a dress this expensive and historic had to be put in this state for someone like Kim
She wore it in competition of Marilyn’s cultural icon status , the level she will never achieve.
literally. She wore it for the sense of superiority she got then switched out… what a jerk
PERIOD!
The dress was literally sewn onto Marilyn. That’s how custom it was. It was never meant to be reworn by another body.
In some sick way, I feel like kim wore the dress to show that she’s just as significant as Marilyn Monroe when she’s not. Further, it also did not fit the theme of the gilded age at all so all in all it was just a waste of a historical piece.
You took the words out of my mouth. I was thinking this as the video played lol
Bet we see more ridiculous stunts in the next few years as the family becomes less relevant and their aesthetic falls out of fashion
Marilyn when alive was iconic, but not to the level she is today. A lot of our perception of her is thanks to the way her image was used after her death. Because of that, i do believe you can make a comparison between the two as icons.
But the idea of doing the same things that Marilyn did, just to be compared, will always brand kim as the bad copy of a true icon.
totally agree. at least for the moment, every time someone mentions Marylin, Kim will be apart of that convo too 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
@@justhadijat do you think because of the new Marilyn docu series on Netflix? Kim will come up especially if searched on google …
If she cared about “historical fashion” she would’ve stuck to the theme.
also she ended up tearing it in some places due to it not fitting. so she damaged historical fashion as well.
the moment kim wear that iconic dress you can really see that the value of that dress has gone
Kim could’ve either worn the replica the entire time or use her “creative imagination” to create an iconic piece that is entirely her own instead of using someone else’s especially damaging something historically famous.
It was hand tailored to Monroe’s body. It had to be stretched to fit Kim. If she really was that much of a fan of her, she would have understood that she shouldn’t have worn it. I’m a big Marylin Monroe fan, and I would never take any chance of ruining something so iconic just so I could wear it. I don’t really understand why she couldn’t have just worn the replica gown the whole time.
Ya if she has sooo much money she should tell them to make her a similar dress like gosh.
Perfectly said
she lost 9 pound in like one week, and trying to fit in the dress. the zipper at back actually is not open, so she damage nothing but lazy people’s emotion
This!^^
@@deeparaichandani9969 i saw some people saying she only wore it for a small amount of time , and then changed to a replica , she should’ve just worn the replica the entire time.
so many things wrong with this:
1. this is basically a historical artifact. it’s very clear that this was tailored “specifically” for marilyn in every single ways. by kim “trying” to fit into, meant that this is NOT for her AND she could ruin the fabric that can be so fragile due to the time period and length of it by trying to fit into the damn thing. it’s just disrespectful all in all
2. by attempting to fit into this dress, she further exacerbates the issues of eating disorders and body images by revealing her strict diet and etc etc on what she did to fit into it. as if the kardashians hasn’t done enough to set up unrealistic and toxic beauty standards, this just makes it worse.
3. she did all this and the dress wasn’t even on theme with the gilded age. like--
i fully agree
its neither gold as in the word guilded nor relevant to the guilded age..
its just as if she tookthe actual thing thinking shes making a statement..when in reality shes just ruining something that better off in a museum
Agreed!
Amber Chimberlin tho-
Here is a copy paste
The 20-year-old went platinum blonde and sported a beige-coloured corset and white skirt by Louis Vuitton. She paired it with a dazzling diamond tiara and choker by Cartier Jewel, the brand's latest ambassador. However, she faced harsh criticism for reportedly wearing Maharaja of Patiala's diamond choker to the gala.
I cant see how it is "appreciation" when she literally damaged the dress🤦🏻♀️
There's a HUGE difference between wearing vintage and wearing a literal piece of irreplaceable history. Most mid century vintage pieces are fine to be worn and should be worn and appreciated. However certain couture pieces, one of a kind pieces and pieces with historical provenance should be preserved for future generations to admire and learn from.
ok my opinion:
She should have paid for a replica instead of taking it from the music. Or either actually follow the theme of the met gala.
She had a replica and changed into it immediately after the red carpet
@@J4CKS0N_D34R3ST are you kidding me?? Really??
@@J4CKS0N_D34R3ST wow.. so she didn’t need to wear it and did anyways. Shitty.
@@JikiNoKokoro yea, it's really rude
Like I nearly spat out my coffee!
I nearly died ikr!
The colour was made to perfectly match Monroe's skin colour and tailored to fit her body and I think she should not have woren that dress because she isn't even on the level of Monoroe
Some people in my reply think that the dress is fine but after kim wore it it has been found out that the dress *ripped* and most of the crystals were missing
And that’s on Periodt
It's a dress, get over it.
and what level is Monroe?...she was a junkie who literally slept her way to fame..and slept with married men🤷♀️
@@itstinyty It was an absolutely beautiful and antique dress and It was only ment to fit Merlin and it was stretched to fit kim and the zipper was still open which probably ruined the dress because Kim's body and Merlin's body are very different
@@itstinyty But how does Kardashian in any level match with her? What talent does she hold specifically? Marilyn isn't perfect nobody is and she was actually sweet when she was alive just overly sexualized by the media. Kim made a porno and had bbl that made her popular and also used a lot of people and slept with a lot of men for fame and scandal so what precisely is the point? Who is more *sophisticated* who came first?
Marilyn wore it first and she is an icon, She literally had a big influence both in fashion and in television and Kim is literally copying her lol that's why she's so eager to fit into the dress. Yeah it is "just" a dress but It became historic because of *Marilyn* . You must be a kid or ignorant in literal to not know a historical artifact's worth but the fact that your account is pure of Roblox already says what kind of mentality you're in meaning childlike and is only looking for trouble, so go back to playing tower of hell and stop like you know better lmao
@@itstinyty she was a icon very influential and the fact she was asexual and sapphoromantic makes me doubt all of that.
Let me destroy something I have no business wearing, that’s appreciation.
I have more of a issue that she forces herself into a dress that did not fit her, and in the process ruined it. And it does not help at all that she also made a replica that she wore right afterwards, so she basically just damaged the dress for publicity and it is working since everyone is talking about it
So basically the dress was bought by a "museum" that allowed her to wear that dress. If she wanted to show her appreciation for fashion history, she should NOT have worn the dress. Garments are extremely fragile and every single time you wear clothes, they get ruined further. Her wearing that iconic dress that is nothing less than the most expensive dress ever damaged that dress beyond repair. And you wanna know the fun part? IT WASN'T EVEN OF FUCKING THEME!! A simple Google search will reveal that the gilded age was roughly 1870s-1900s. And I'm not good at math but I don't think that 1962 is in that time period. So please leave historical garments where they should be left: in a museum
Yes. But your typo says "1962 is in that time."
*isn't
Edits loose ❤. Just saying.
Totally agree!
@@cheryl-lynnmehring8606 noni said that I don't think that 1962 is in that time. That's Correct right? I'm sorry English is not my mother tongue :)
@@lonelygovernment4544 i dont see any grammatical errors in your comment.
@@winter4053 yous aid there was a typo I don't see one
This wasn't about honouring Maz, that dress didn't even fit Kim. It's a wonder it wasn't damaged. Travisty.
I actually heard that some of them gems fell off with how the "museum" employees were forcing it on
Sadly it WAS damaged. The type of fabric used wasn't made to stretch, so not only did she stretch it out, the gemstones would fall off because of the factor that it didn’t fit. It's sad as well because Marilyn specifically said she didn't want anyone else wearing that dress after her
It was.
It was damaged
It WAS damaged
I mean the fact that she had to lose almost 20 pounds to fit into the dress & it _still didn't fit_ completely should've already been a huge sign not to wear such an iconic dress
I was floored when the news came out that Kim was wearing the dress. I’ve always knew about this dress every since I can remember. I’m 60 years old so that’s dress was made about the time I was born.
To have anyone wear this dress was unacceptable. To put such a piece in the hand of anyone shows who owns it had little respect for it’s history or for what it stands for .. Marylin and the happy birthday song to one of the most beloved Presidents in history, JF Kennedy . Are could it have been the donation they received to let Kim wear it. I’m sure a donation for its use was given. Was it worth it?
She only wanted to wear the dress to feed her narcissistic ego 🤢
Uou are Absolutely Correct!!
Narcissistic, My God, I love it ~

I think wearing an iconic, historical piece like this is just selfish.
She literally made a replica of that dress but chose to wear the real one 😭
Then decided to wear the replica immediately after the red carpet because she fucked up 🫠
The comments already say my thoughts on this but I’d like to add that Kim also had a replica of the dress made that she wore later. It’s not that she had to wear this dress. She had one exactly like it made to fit her better that didn’t have historical value. Kim literally did this just to be shitty and egocentric and make people upset.
@@free_palestine786 yes. Not all dresses obviously but this was worn by Marilyn Monroe in a famous video and like duh it has value??? She also said she didn’t want anyone else to wear it and that’s just not respecting her wishes.. its fucked up and I don’t care if you think its overreacting it’s just disrespectful. Girl out here setting the bar so low for aot fans. You’re making us look bad sis
Amen 🙏🏻
@@free_palestine786 it has some historical value, since it is a dress from a specific cultural moment
@@free_palestine786 it does have historical value
@@free_palestine786 Fashion is art, and art is preserved. It was literally put in a MUSEUM because it had historical value.
I absolutely HATE Kim for this, MM literally said she didn't want anybody else to wear it because she was the last one to wear it, she also broke it. If she was such a fan she would've understood that she shouldn't have worn it. God, it didn't even fit the theme of the event. It's a historical piece and she ruined it completely.
Edit: I've always wanted to start a war, this isn't what I meant.
I agree with you completely except I don’t remember MM saying that
@@ada1252 she did
She didnt brake the dress what are u talking about😂
@@LolLol-ot4tf she did
@@sophia2474 ok what spot did she break?
This absolutely breaks my heart for several reasons. The dress itself is a piece of history. It was created solely with Marilyn in mind. When she received word of her performance for JFK she called up this designer and asked him to specifically craft something that only she could wear. All her life Marilyn was treated as an object, especially a s*xual one. 😞 No one ever really saw her as a fellow human, and she never really had something to call her own until this dress was made. It’s sad that even after her death people are still ignoring her and her wishes. Heck, Ripley’s even gifted Kim a jar of Marilyn’s hair.
Well after she wore it, it broke because it was actually too tight for her and wasn’t made for her
And after wearing it, there are now crystals missing and the back has tears.
Yeap, she damaged the dress.
No she didn’t, The people who owned it before Kim said it was fine. Know your facts
@@mae7586 there are literally pictures of before and after…
@@mae7586 Guys here we have a natural born simp, this species is known having a non-functioning brain in the presence of a female mammal. Have a good look! :D
@@mae7586 Look at the pictures of the damaged dress. It was not made for Kim K., it did not fit Kim K., IN CONCLUSION the dress is not fine. Know your facts
TRULY my heart breaks at how they are forcing that dress onto her and pulling on the beading. It makes me furious. If it doesnt f fit, IT DOESNT FIT
The most hilarious part is that she had to add the coat cause the zipper didn't close LOL,HAHAHAHAHA
I feel like she wore that to start controversy for ✨ attention ✨
Yeah she wasn't getting attention so she broke MM's last wish to get it
She clearly got it but it still backfired 💀
@@tothemoonbase no that's the whole point it doesn't matter if people are pissed at her they're talking about her and that's all she wants. nowadays people are more inclined to talk about Kylie and her businesses whether good or bad and Kim probably jealous.
I feel like she would do anything for attention. She always starts dramas, she always wants the attention to be on her, her, her. And what she did with Marylin's dress was so egocentric and useless. The dress belongs in a museum and shouldn't be worn by anyone.
She's the perfect embodiment of "All publicity, is good publicity" Everytime she's not the center of attention for a little bit you can count -of- on her pulling some stunt to get another 15mins of fame
She wore a replica after that …so why did she have to wear the actual dressssss!!!!!
for ✨attention ✨🤪 she’s so quirky
Just to show she could. Celebs and their sense of entitlement 🫠
I’m not a fashion person but even I know that’s wrong!
The dress has already been ruined
Bro that dress was a masterpiece and smth Marilyn wanted for herself. Who allowed Kim to wear it
The whole point of this dress was that it matched Marilyn’s skin tone, with Kim’s skin being darker it just looks weird on her. I think it would’ve been better if she made a remake that fit her and matched her skin, I feel like that would show more respect towards Marilyn
Exactly, make it a tribute not theft
Totally
Finally someone said this!!!
First of all, anyone if any skin tone can wear any color, saying someone’s too dark for something is racist.
@@Yun-jr1ln the point of the dress was to create a nude illusion. it was made for marilyns skin tone. any person lighter or darker would look worse
i feel the dress has a lot of significance ...especially cuz it was tailored for Marylins body and tone..
For someone to just take a piece of history and have it stretched over their body and not even worn properly...for the sake of claiming you care...is ridiculous
she has more than enough money to order a replica that would suit her properly and look better on her.
shut up.
Omg it’s not historical is was worm by a celebrity not a king or queen or some actually important 💀
@@d1zzy_bearr even if it was worn by a king or smtg people all the time try to recreate nobility outfit and nobody says nothing.
they have a psychological issue with the kardashians and they will critize them for whatever
@@d1zzy_bearr Tell me you're an immature child, without telling me, you're an immature child. Also, that dress was especially tailored to her, and she specifically only wanted it to be worn by herself. On top of that, the dress was one of the last things Marilyn was ever seen wearing. What Kim did was extremely disrespectful and honestly stupid.
@@Marie-cs6ln EXACTLY
they really stuffed the biggest peach they could find into that dress and expected it to stay together-
I think she should've worn a copy and maybe kept this dress in her cupboard or something if she wanted to preserve it.
lmfaooo the gown was damaged after kim wore it. she really should've had a replica made to fit her hefty ass. clearly she could afford it.
She did
That's the worst part
Right after the walk she was switched into a replica made to fit her perfectly. I feel it's more insulting that she ruined this dress over nothing during the few minutes she wore it only to disregard it and wear a more better fitting replacement within the hour.
She apparently even tried to say she didn't ruin it. Girl, you aren't shaped like her. You had to fight to get up the stairs at the event. Of course you ruined it, with your "any publicity is good publicity" personality. This just gets her more media coverage. The fact we still talking bout it this long after the event, just helps her out.
You can't be wearing someone else's outfit, especially when they didn't give you permission to wear it. I'd get it if it was ur sibling borrowing something that you wear casually but in this case it's not. The dress was fit for Marylin's body and her's only. Kim stopped really low with this. If you were really that desperate then just make a similar outfit to it. When you really take it in, Kim is wearing a dead icon's dress. Smh
and it’s not even on theme lmfao.
Tbh, this is kims and Ripley's Believe It or Not's fault. They have little regard for the dress and allowed kim to wear it. The dress shouldn't have even been sold to them, it should be in the Smithsonian and put away and only brought out evey couple of years. Kim's request wouldn't have even been acknowledged if an actual museum was in possession of the dress. Then again, kim had no right to even think about wearing that dress. Tragedy all-around
@@manuelramos8172 True but they still shouldn't have given it to someone when it's not even their own dress
there's food shortages going on
And it broke
I read a comment about kim wearing this dress about a month ago that said "The dress was designed specifically for Monroe's pale skin and the dress would give her a nice nude appearance. Kim could never wear that piece properly because of her fake tan skin".
And that's just amazing because it's true
That’s like someone wearing Dorothy’s ruby heels on the red carpet. DONT DO IT
That dress was nearly sewn on to Marilyn if Kim can’t fit in than she should not have worn it that dress is ICONIC and should not have worn something so significant
If she had worn a recreated version of the dress that matched her skin tone it would of been stunning and much more respectful; a proper homage. Wearing Marylin Monroe’s actual dress didn’t have the impact she thought it had.
There’s a reason we keep the real thing kept in good condition away from anybody else’s body and just make replicas
The dress was irreparably damaged, so I'd say no.
Meanwhile me at the beginning: she looks bald
I thought so too
i don’t mind the idea of wearing vintage dresses but i don’t understand why they let her stretch it out when it was clear it wasn’t going to fit her. just make a replica at that point that fits her.
I think it should stay inside the museum because if you do rewear historical fashion pieces it can get ruined and after a certain time the dress can get worn out
You now money can't buy that moment when merelin wore it
TRULY DISRESPECTFUL SHES SO USETO GETTING HER WAY SO SHE HAD TO DO THIS SERIOUSLY ITS DISRESPECTFUL
I just really want to know how much money that museum took to be giving that dress to someone who doesn't deserve it
It should be in a museum
I think once it goes on display at a museum it should not be taken out, unless it is worn by the child or grandchild of the person the piece was made for/worn by (example: Princess Beatrice wearing one of her grandmothers dresses as her wedding dress). But if a garment is just a vintage piece from a designers archives/previous collection and was not made specifically for a specific person/historic event it is fine.
“It belongs in a museum”
Regardless, when I first saw this I thought the straps of the dress looked awfully TIGHT 🧍♀️and it turns out she wore a fur coat to hide the back since it wouldn't close 💀
Well I appreciate you not telling us who's dress the other celebrities wore, and also regardless the oil on skin ALWAYS ruins old fabric and clothes, ripplys is also to blame for allowing her to wear the dress
If she actually cared about fashion, she would have gotten a replica of the dress instead of ruining it by wearing the original dress when it doesn’t even fit her
The disrespect. Marilyn should have been the last person to wear that dress. It was worn in a pretty big historical moment and should not be worn fifty years later by anyone, let alone a kardashian.
And the fact that they aren't even related also annoys me
Anyone else picturing Indiana Jones running after her, yelling, “it belongs in a museum!!”?
Yes I can see it
I honestly think it's the museum's fault for giving a historical dress to someone to fucking wear. It's all torn, stinky and damaged now ;-;
It belongs in a museum, it was made for Marilyn Monroe; no one else is supposed to wear it.
I feel like having a dress made that took inspiration from Marilyn’s original dress would have been a better show of respect and admiration than just trying to adamantly fit into a dress that was tailor-made for someone iconic and actually important
Update: she had an almost exact replica made to fit herself. She wore Marilyn Monroe’s dress for a few minutes, then after ruining it she decided to wear the replica.. absolute piece of walking shit.
She actually had a copy of the dress made and yet she decided to wear the real one for a while and ruin it.
When Ripley suggested wearing the replica the response was “Kim doesn’t do replicas”.
@@julie3865 Kim is a replica
First of all, IT WASN'T ON THEME! If she had worn this for last year's met, it would have been on theme but NOT THIS YEAR!
Second, why would you wanna wear a dress that doesn't even fit? I mean, she could have just worn a replica (She wore a replica of this dress after the red carpet, so why bother wearing the original if you have a replica)
Besides, they could've made a gown matching her skin tone and that fits her!!!
Ngl her getting her own dress, made in the same way as Marilyn's to fit her body and skin colour, would've been such a good way to show your appreciation. If it fit the theme it would've been a great idea. Not like this tho.
Yeah no she was not appreciating or paying any homage to the iconic Marilyn or the historic fashion industry, not when she knew that the dress didn't fit her, had she really cared and had respect she would have said, "no let's not force it on me, I would hate to damage it" but noooo not Kim this is how much respect she has. But honestly I can't be mad at her, it's more dissapointing that the company even allowed/permitted for that dress to be worn by anyone.
Why the he'll would anyone wear an amazing peice of history like that? It's something you should look at in a museum and the no touching sign is there for everyone no matter how rich you are.
While I sometimes find ridiculius that people treasure clothes so much and not want them worn, this is different
MM literally said she wanted be the only to wear it.
And since it was fitted, I can imagine the pain this dress went through because of being stretched to fit and stuff.
If she really was such a history fan, knowing that she basically ruins a dress and wears it even though the og owner didn't want to, really shows her uhm...appreciation....for fashion history
I think this was disrespectful and selfish for kim to do idk why she is even famous the reson is because her dad was in the O.J Simpson trial and that’s what got her famous. I honestly hope this dress gets put back in the museum
shut up.
go live in north korea.
People can wear whatever they want.
its not even owned by a actual museum and probably wont
No point in it being in a Museum anymore. The heffer stretched it out, most likely broke the zipper, more than likely stained it with whatever make up and perfume she wore. They'd have to repair the dress, and at that point it would no longer be the same dress that MM wore.
@@ashleypetrini4627 Ok calm down it is a dress there are many dresses in the world and you DON'T have to put down others it looks gross
@@iamaghosthi682 idfc, there is NO other dress like the one Kim uined. It was fitted specifically for Marilyn, to fit MARILYN'S body. It was made to match MARILYN'S skin tone. It was part of a HISTORICAL event that involved MARILYN. Marilyn SPECIFICALLY said she DIDN'T want ANYONE else to wear it. Kim disrespected Marilyn and Marilyn's wish. I mean Kim had a replica she wore AFTER ruining the dress (a.k.a. the red carpet). She could have EASILY worn the replica the whole time instead of breaking the zipper on the dress and stretching out MARILYN'S dress. That, again, she stated that NO ONE was to wear HER dress.
This particular dress should definitely be in a museum
At least now people will stop insisting that Monroe was "a plus-sized woman."
If Kim had had a copy made I wouldn’t have cared. But not only could Kim risk stretching it out since they aren’t the same size, Marilyn SPECIFICALLY said she didn’t want anyone else to wear this dress
They gifted Kim k Monroe's hair .. there's a whole series of bad ethics surrounding this
...that's creepy, why tf would you want a dead person's hair you don't even know, celebrity or not that's just creepy
@@lurkinlikeaboss If you think that's creepy you can look up Richard Poncher that asked to be buried face down over Marilyn Monroe's crypt.What they are doing is deeply disrespectful.
@@tinaandro1178oh man that's awful wtf is wrong with people, can't they just let the dead rest in peace
Because of her huge dumper she has now officially damaged this iconic dress which was made specifically for the legendary Marilyn Monroe.
Personally i don't think marylin would have wanted someone like kim to wear her dress
It looked real bad on Kim.
While it was stunning on Marilyn ❤️ it should be preserved in a museum
If she really appreciated historic fashion she wouldn't wear and damage it when it just doesn't fit
Historic fashion Should not be Not reworn
Perhaps remade to resemble the original, tho
If she respected historical fashion, or Marilyn, she would not have worn it. Kim's entitlement knows no bounds 🙄
And it didn't even look good on her! What a shame pieces like this aren't respected for the art they are.
They even gave her MM hair as a ‘ gift ’, like let the damn woman be at peace
Apparently no imagination and this particular dress was Marilyn's only.
I feel like her wearing the dress says that she thinks she’s important enough and deserves to wear it Imo
I wanna know who even allowed her to get the dress out of the museum and let alone try it on and actually wear it!? Not to mention that she damaged the back of the dress to try and fit her she also has the dress in terrible condition with the gems falling off and gone the dress literally was not made for anybody else but Marilyn Monroe.
The reason it was so iconic on Monroe was because it was made just for her, the color, the fit, but on Kim it doesn't have the same effect and even ignoring all that, it didn't fit theme I could make a reach and say by guilded she thought they mean money, glamour and Hollywood stars, but even if that was the case it would have been so predictable, not even taking into consideration that that wasn't even her explanation, anyway personally I don't care that people wear archived pieces, it's just how they do it that bugs me, people should put more thought into what they wear not just showing up in underwhelming garments just to get the job done
If she really appreciates the piece, she could’ve paid tribute by getting a similar one made to fit her body and skin tone and the Internet would’ve actually appreciated her for coming up with an idea but wearing the very fragile, precious original one, is just a big no-no.
The fact that Marilyn specifically asked that no one else but her where is that dress wow Kim for real you got a rune everything bro 🙄
The fact that many celebrities also wear historic/vintage clothing should be appalling. Older clothes that has great historical value are going to degrade, so why wear that when a replica or an ode to that style could be made?
Worn by "the late Marilyn Monroe" as she was introduced that fateful night. I remember having a premonition about the introduction using the word "late" which means 'dead'. I was 15.
This is more special than other iconic garments and should never have been loaned to anyone let alone someone whose behind can't fit into it.
Put it in a museum and leave it there.
Kim - if you were a true fan of MM, then you would never wear this dress. Mm asked that this dress not to be worn. You sound like Amber when you said the dress fits. The dress did NOT fit. You stretched it and the back did not zip up.
I would never wear the dress even if I was paid to do so. And I am closer to Marilyn's size
Considering she caused damage to the dress? I think it’s super disrespectful
No I do not think that Kim should have worn that dress. And I'm disappointed at Ripley's for even lending it out
