Kim previously teased her 2023 Met Gala moment, showing herself getting her look together at Karl’s former Parisian office.
“Had a date with Choupette Lagerfeld in Paris,” Kim captioned an April 26 Instagram post, referencing Karl’s beloved cat. “We then spent some time at @karllagerfeld’s office to get a little inspiration for the Met.”
Other snaps in the carousel showed the SKIMS founder musing over a collage of design sketches along with black-and-white photographs and magazine cutouts.
And at this point, the Kardashian-Jenner crew is no stranger to the Met Gala, as last year Kim donned the look discussed ‘round the world. She admitted to losing 16 lbs in order to fit into the iconic dress that Marilyn Monroe wore to sing “Happy Birthday” to former President John F. Kennedy in 1962.
“It was such a challenge,” Kim told Vogue on the red carpet in 2022. “It was like a role. I was determined to fit.”
And when the 42-year-old tried on the dress for the final fitting, she realized it was all worth it, as Kim recalled, “I wanted to cry tears of joy.”
