Fans concerned for Kim Kardashian after seeing ‘unhealthy’ Met Gala dress

Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala look has led to people taking to social media in concern.

Women should be able to wear whatever they want, when they want. However, as someone who has a young and impressionable fan base, Kim Kardashian has faced scrutiny over the years for how she presents herself and her look at the 2024 Met Gala, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City yesterday (6 May), was no exception.

From promoting weight-loss lollipops on her Instagram to being accused of photoshop, the Kardashian has previously sparked frustration among fans.

And last night, the 43-year-old stepped out on the Met Gala red carpet wearing a silver, John Galliano corset-style dress – an outfit which tied in with the Costume Institute’s ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’ exhibit – and many people were left saying the same thing.

The dress is a floor-length silver number with a shawl-like wrap around top covering a corset-like silver strapless bodysuit, which leads into an extremely cinched metallic waist section. The rest of the bodysuit is then covered over by a floral, leafy, silver skirt and small train.

But why has some people’s response to the dress been ‘Hell NO’?

Well, the dress is stunning, but many social media users have spoken out in concern for just how cinched the waist area of the dress appears to be.

One X user said: “Kim Kardashian at the Met Gala with a snatched waist. It looks painful though, she can barely move.”

“What is wrong with these celebrities?! Why!? Did she break her ribs?!” A second commented.

A third added: “She kind of looks like she’s in pain.”

However, another user simply wrote: “Met Gala 2024: Kim Kardashian’s cinched waist causes confusion == doesnt look uncomfortable or battling to breath ?? so what the hell is the problem ? ? ? JEALOSY ?? PROBABLY !”
