Kim Kardashian Says Breathing Is an ‘Art Form’ in Her Restricting Met Gala Corset Gown

Kim Kardashian appeared at the Met Gala in a marvelous yet extremely tight corset gown that the celebrity seemed quite uncomfortable in. Kim’s body looked like it was bent by the corset, which was confirmed when she struggled for breath during an interview that took place behind the scenes.

Kim Kardashian Looked Stunning

The 2024 Met Gala took place on May 7th and Kim Kardashian wore a custom silver dress from Maison Margiela. She gave the interview as she was getting her hair done and took several deep breaths before someone asked her from behind the camera how her breathing was and if things were going well. Kim’s reply came after a long pause, saying that breathing was an art form, but she was managing it.

She accessorized her look with a comfortable gray sweater that she draped over her shoulders. During the interview, Kardashian said she had wanted to partner with Maison Margiela for the design of her Met Gala look for several years and shared how the brand enamored her after watching a theatrical fashion show where corsets were in almost every dress.

A Corset Gown for Kim

According to Kim, when she finally connected with current designer John Galliano, it was a dream come true getting to know him and spending time with him. She added that she wanted to do him justice because of the incredible person he was.

While trying on the corset, Kardashian teased that she felt so “snatched” she couldn’t properly communicate the feeling. After she walked the red carpet at the Met Gala, many people commented on social media and showed concern for her well-being because of how tight the dress was. Meanwhile, her sister, Khloe Kardashian, who did not attend the gala, praised Kim’s look on social media.
