Of course, there’s no Kardashian Met Gala look that was as hotly discussed as last year’s, which honored the history of American fashion. The star slipped into a naked style Jean Louis dress, once worn by Marilyn Monroe to sing “Happy Birthday” to then president JFK in 1962. “Nowadays everyone wears sheer dresses, but back then that was not the case,” says Kardashian of the famous frock. “In a sense, it’s the original naked dress. That’s why it was so shocking.” For the 2023 Met Gala, Kardashian covered herself in over 50,000 pearls when she wore a couture creation by Daniel Roseberry at Schiaparelli. The look took artisans over 1,000 hours to create, with pearls dangling directly of Kim s body a bold new iteration of the star s love for body conscious fashion.
Summer may just be around the corner, but this week’s best dressed stars aren’t embracing easy breezy dresses just yet. On the red carpets these past few days, A listers wore looks that had shape to them. Structured silhouettes dominated the week, whether it was a voluminous tulle Molly Goddard dress (like the one actor Jessica Williams wore to an Apple TV+ and Essence event in L.A.), or a tough leather coat fresh off Bottega Veneta’s fall 2023 runway (a la Kendall Jenner, who rocked it while out and about in New York City).
