“He obviously has breathing problems.” Kim Kardashian and her extremely tight corset stand out at the Met Gala.

Even more than her plump butt, Kim Kardashian adores her wasp waist. And she’s not the only one… At the Met Gala 2024 in New York City on May 6, singer Lana Del Rey admitted to the journalist that what he prefers in a business woman is nothing more than… “her waist”. It has to be said that Kim Kardashian’s silhouette in the heart of the Metropolitan Museum of Art that evening could only fascinate (or disturb, it depends). The Skims founder opted for a Maison Margiela Artisanal dress by John Galliano made of silver metallic lace. But the most impressive thing was the bust of the dress, to be honest, a corset, so tight that Kim Kardashian had enough to break records with a cinched waist. It’s enough to alarm the social networks.

“He’s really fighting for his life.”

Many Internet users on X (formerly Twitter) raise their eyebrows or worry. “Hello everyone, Kim Kardashian can’t breathe in this dress,” tweeted the user of the platform. “He’s obviously having trouble breathing,” “He’s really fighting for his life,” “He looks like he’s going to fall to the ground at any moment,” echoed others. These comments all accompany a video, which has been viewed 1.7 million times, in which Kim Kardashian momentarily loses her balance in front of photographers, her mouth open as if to gasp. A moment of weakness due to a corset or just a crooked step?

Other Internet users have a stronger opinion. For them, Kim Kardashian’s obsession with almost non-existent sizes is more dangerous than “fashion”. “Kim Kardashian’s insistence on changing her body shape to fit a certain trend and/or outfit is absolutely insane and so dangerous,” complained one social media user. To which another responds that “the standards of beauty that her family sets every year are higher and higher and more unattainable,” before showing a picture of what her “guts” looked like at tonight’s Met Gala.

A sharp waist at any cost

Reactions related to this habit developed by Kim Kardashian for several years. We remember her corset that was adopted at the Met Gala 2019. The model of Thierry Mugler, who caused a lot of talk on the networks, sculpting the silhouette of a business woman on the red carpet. She needed the help of three people to fit her custom-made accessory, which was signed by corset maker Mr. Pearl… who also taught her how to breathe in it.

But the boldness of fashion did not remain without consequence and regret. Two months later, he reported Wall Street Journal Suffering a lot at the 2019 Met Gala “I’ve never suffered so much in my life. I could show you photos of the marks it left on my back and stomach when I took it off,” he said. Despite everything, after five years the pain is forgotten and the mistake starts again. All we have to do is wait for feedback.
