Kim Kardashian showed up to the 2024 Met Gala looking like a silver statue. The reality TV star stunned fans with her look, which included a bold silver gown that flaunted her famous curves. Her hourglass shape was on full display in the ensemble. She also added a gray sweater wrapped around her arms and draped off of her shoulders. The Skims creator added little else to accessorize the look except her new icy blonde hair color. However, while Kardashian’s dress was breathtaking, fans couldn’t help but be shocked at how intensely the corsetted midsection wrapped her waist.
Kardashian’s waist was smaller than ever in the corset. While this helped to accentuate the curves above and below the corset, per NY Times. However, many fans were not happy about the unrealistic standard that she set for young girls and women who may look to her as a fashion icon or for inspiration. Many people took to social media to share their thoughts on Kardashian’s outfit and super tiny waist.
Fans Call Out Kim Kardashian for Intense Met Gala look
“Kim Kardashian is literally struggling to walk and breathe because her waist is smaller than her neck and people are just taking photos of her like we should be proud of her for this,” one person tweeted. “Kim is having difficulty breathing because of how narrow they made the waist. Wtf?” another social media user stated.
“Kim Kardashian’s obsession with having no waist isn’t cute it’s actually really gross!” another commented. “I said let me as, where all the organs in Kim’s stomach will be and how compressed they would look because this kind of waist is not realistic and healthy at all,” a fourth person wrote.
Although Kim Kardashian’s fans thought she looked gorgeous in her Met Gala look, the critics came out in full force to call her out for the unrealistic beauty standard she seemed to be portraying. Although her waist looked insanely small in the dress, the look couldn’t have been comfortable for her. However, she’s been known to rock intense outfits in the past in the name of fashion.
