Kim Kardashian walked the red carpet at the 2022 Met Gala in a dress that was worn by Marilyn Monroe almost 60 years ago, but she only wore the dress for a matter of minutes.
The 41-year-old reality star was joined by boyfriend Pete Davidson while appearing at the event on Monday evening (May 2) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Kim had a special changing room at the beginning of the red carpet so that she could get into the dress and then she changed out of it at the top of the carpet.
