It was"irresponsible" to loan an iconic gown once worn by Marilyn Monroe to Kim Kardashian for the Met Gala, a collector has said.- dubbed the most famous dress in the world - which was worn by Monroe during her famous 1962 performance of Happy Birthday to US president John F Kennedy.
But some of the attention turned to criticism after collector Scott Fortner posted photos online appearing to show damage to the gown, which has since been returned to Ripley's Believe It or Not!. Mr Fortner said the franchise's only intention in allowing the reality star to wear the outfit at the prestigious New York fashion event had been"publicity" and that more should have been done to protect the"cultural icon"."I think the disappointment that I'm experiencing is Ripley has made multiple statements that they were doing everything that they could to protect and preserve the gown," he said."This is a cultural icon. It's a political icon.
The skin-tight gown is adorned with more than 6,000 crystals and was hand-sewn by costumier Jean Louis. Mr Fortner added:"I think a lot of people are really kind of coming down really hard on Kim Kardashian and that's not my attempt here.The historian, who has curated his own private collection of Monroe artifacts, said the gown was now"irreparable" as it was no longer possible to purchase the fabric it was made from.
Ridiculous idea in the first place , plus a little gross ! Why did anyone think this was ok
Just to massage her fat ego - and she looked 💩e in it with that daft hair
