Next up in the news, the ever-controversial Kim Kardashian is making headlines once again, this time at the prestigious Met Gala. As she walked the red carpet alongside other celebrities like Lana Del Rey, the eldest Kardashian sisters were noticeably absent from the event.
But of course, the Met Gala wouldn't be complete without Kim causing some sort of stir. However, this time, many are saying she may have gone too far in the name of fashion. It's been two years since her controversial decision to wear Marilyn Monroe's priceless dress for the "In America" theme, but this time, it's not the dress that has fans concerned.
For this year's "Garden of Time" theme, Kim donned a Maison Margiela corset, cinching her waist to an extreme degree. The unattainable figure she presented seemed to be a struggle for even her, as she appeared to be short of breath while walking the Met Gala runway.
Her corset, with cascading silver leaf detailing and a see-through floor-length skirt, was completed with a grey cropped John Galliano cardigan draped delicately over her shoulders. And while her platinum blonde hair was styled beautifully, it also served as a subtle response to rumors that her hair has been damaged by bleach.
Despite the stunning dress, fans were not impressed by the extreme corsetry from the media mogul. Many took to social media to express their concerns for Kim's well-being, noting that she appeared to be struggling to breathe in the tight garment. Some even pointed out that this may not be the direction we should be going in for beauty and fashion, as it sets unrealistic and potentially harmful standards.
As a family that is often at the forefront of influencing major trends, Kim's snatched waist could have a larger impact than just damaging her ability to breathe. It could potentially spark a return to the pressure on femme-presenting individuals to have comically small waists, perpetuating unhealthy and unrealistic beauty expectations.
While Kim may have used padding to enhance her hourglass figure, the effect on impressionable individuals is still the same. And hopefully, her difficulty breathing in the corset will serve as a reminder that these extreme beauty standards are not worth risking one's health for.
So, as we continue to follow the news and updates surrounding the Met Gala, let's also remember to prioritize our own well-being and not let societal pressures dictate our appearance. After all, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, and we should embrace and celebrate our unique bodies.
