The Marylin Monroe dress was paired with a white stole. The mother of four struggled to climb the stairs of the biggest fashion event of the years. During an interview with Vogue, the SKIMS founder shared what she had to experience to wear the dress.
Kim said that on sighting the dress at Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! museum last week in Orlando, she knew she had to wear it. Armed guards brought it to her while wearing white gloves, and when she saw that she couldn’t fit in, she decided to do whatever it took. “I tried it on and it didn’t fit me. I said, ‘Give me three weeks,’” Kim told Vogue. “I had to lose 16 pounds down today. It was such a challenge.
It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven’t had carbs or sugar in about three weeks.” She then joked about celebrating with a “pizza and donut party” later that night. Even if she lost weight, the reality TV show star still struggled with the design. Walking in the dress proved really difficult.
