Kim Kardashian showed up to the 2024 Met Gala in an artisanal Maison Margiela corset and cardigan

Kim Kardashian’s 2024 Met Gala look is officially here: a stunning artisanal Maison Margiela corset and cardigan combo by John Galliano.

It obviously tapped into the ever trending naked dressing aesthetic, with a touch of granny chic in the form of the extra layer. To be fair, feeling the chill is an inevitable result in a see-through cut-out skirt...

Here are more deets on her look, straight from Margiela’s press release:

“For her appearance, John Galliano created an haute couture look for Kim Kardashian composed of a pale grey thistle-washed boiled cashmere cardigan, a couture corset rewoven from antique silver brocade and a skirt in tooled silver metal evoking lace, flowers, leaves and sprigs interlinked with silver chain and floral motifs cut from mirror fragments, as well as crystal pendants, pearls and set like a piece from high-jewellery.”

Kim’s been a fixture at the Met Gala since her first appearance in 2013, when she wore a floral dress by Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy. You know, the one with the grandma couch fabric that was the subject of memes for years to come? As Kim put it, “I think Robin Williams even tweeted it, said I looked like Mrs. Doubtfire. It was like this whole thing, so I just cried. And now I love, like, now it’s sick. I look back and I’m like ‘Wow, they had the vision.’”

Some of Kim’s other memorable looks over the years? When she showed up dressed as your sleep paralysis demon in 2021 in a dress by Balenciaga that covered her entire body:

And of course, when Kim wore Marilyn Monroe’s nude dress in 2022 and everyone flipped out and accused her of ruining it—even though she was only wearing it for about two minutes before changing into a replica for the rest of the party.

As she put it, “It was such a process. I showed up to the red carpet in a robe and slippers, and I put the dress on on the bottom of the carpet, went up the stairs. I probably had it on for three minutes, four minutes.”

Anyway! Kim outdid herself for Met Gala 2024 per usual!
