I imagined I might be smaller in some places where she was bigger and bigger in places where she was smaller. So when it didn't fit me I wanted to cry because it can't be altered at all. " Kim went on to reveal she'd been planning her outfit since the 2021 gala, which took place in September after being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

She said: "The idea really came to me after the gala in September last year. "I thought to myself, what would I have done for the American theme if it had not been the Balenciaga look? "What’s the most American thing you can think of?

And that’s Marilyn Monroe. For me the most Marilyn Monroe moment is when she sang Happy Birthday. " The dress, along with its replica, is owned by Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Museum and is worth millions.
