Her Givenchy maternity gown in 2013, for the “Punk Chaos to Couture” theme her first time attending the Met Gala is one of the most famous examples. The clingy, floral printed turtleneck gown (complete with matching gloves) gave birth to countless memes, so much so that Kardashian told Vogue in 2019 that she “cried all the way home” about it. “There were all these memes about me and this couch,” said Kardashian. Even so, one can’t deny it was a major style moment that people still talk about years later.
Since then, Kardashian has continued to favor dresses that accentuate the form. In 2019, for the “camp” theme, Kardashian wore a custom Thierry Mugler look made of silk organza and dripping crystals (it was made to mimic the wet shirtdress that Sophia Loren wears in Boy on a Dolphin). Underneath, a Mr. Pearl corset further whittled the waist. In 2021, for “In America A Lexicon of Fashion,” Kardashian went viral once again This time for the all black Balenciaga spandex look she wore on the carpet, which covered her from head to toe.
