Billionaire businesswoman Kim Kardashian’s wasp waist caused shock and controversy at the 2024 Met Gala.

Reality TV star and American billionaire businesswoman Kim Kardashian (43 years old) stunned everyone when she appeared at the Met Gala fashion event . She wore a silver dress with a “fierce” waist. Kim’s waist was likened to an ant waist and created a shocking hourglass effect.

Kim wore a dress designed by John Galliano for Maison Margiela. The theme of this year’s Met Gala was Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion. Kim opted for no statement jewelry, which allowed her sparkling dress to shine through.

In fact, this is not the first time Kim has shocked people with her unrealistically small waist. She caused controversy in February this year when she wore a corset dress designed by the fashion house Mugler and shared a photo on her personal social media account.

Kim’s appearance at the 2022 Met Gala was also controversial. At that time, she sought inspiration from the fashion style of star Marilyn Monroe. Kim lost nearly 10kg in 3 weeks, to be able to fit into a famous dress of the late female star. Kim’s rapid weight loss has caused a lot of controversy, because of the level of harm it can cause to health.

When attending the 2019 Met Gala, Kim wore a corset dress by designer Thierry Mugler. To be able to wear this dress, Kim had to spend time practicing… breathing, when her waist was too tight. Kim also revealed that when wearing this corset dress, she could only stand, not sit, and could not eat or drink. Kim’s movements when attending the 2019 Met Gala were very limited.

At the Met Gala event that took place this Monday (US time), when witnessing Kim once again tightening her waist, the public was worried about her. Many people asked if Kim could breathe normally with this unrealistic waist.

In fact, Kim’s preference for corset-style dresses that tighten her waistline has led to a lot of criticism from the public. Many people believe that these types of dresses are harmful to women’s health, do not match the criteria of natural body shapes, and make women constantly chase after unrealistic beauty standards.

In fact, to be able to wear corset designs, beauties often have to actively lose weight. Therefore, many people believe that corset designs also encourage fasting, starving oneself to pursue unrealistic beauty standards.

Kim Kardashian (born 1980) is a businesswoman and famous figure in American showbiz. She began to attract media attention after becoming friends with and working as a style expert for singer Paris Hilton.

Kim gained special attention after the 2007 sex tape scandal. The clip was recorded in 2003 with her then-boyfriend, singer Ray J. Immediately after the scandal, Kim and her family launched the reality TV show Keeping Up with the Kardashians in 2007. The show aired until 2021.

The success of the show has led to the creation of several other reality shows featuring members of the Kardashian family, including The Kardashians, which has been airing since 2022.

Kim is a social media influencer with hundreds of millions of followers. She has built a fortune of $1.7 billion from her fashion and cosmetics businesses.

Experts and the public alike see Kim Kardashian as a prime example of the concept of “famous for the sake of being famous”, because she had no significant talent when she first became known. But Kim was good at using the attention given to her to open up opportunities to get rich and continue to increase her influence.

Kim is also pursuing a career as a lawyer. Her relationship with her ex-husband, rapper Kanye West, has also attracted public attention. The marriage lasted from 2014 to 2022. They have four children together.
