Kim spent a lot time and energy creating the iconic look.
Evidently, she spent all day getting her hair colored blonde. “14 hours straight”As she puts it.
And no, she didn’t shave her head as many wrongly assumed.
The original dress was “transported by guards”Before she could wear the gloves, she had to put them on.
“I always thought she was extremely curvy. 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,”She made the observation.
Kim apparently told her self this “it was this or nothing,”To make it easy to slip into the outfit, I decided to stick to a strict diet for three consecutive weeks.

To the above, one said: “Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe’s dress is SO iconic but the crash diet she went on to fit into the dress is so unhealthy, scary, damaging and promotes unrealistic beauty standards even further.”
One wrote: “On a much lighter note @KimKardashian wore #MarilynMonroe “Mr President”Dress to the #MetGala, and she looked amazing. However, no one should think they need to crash diet to wear a dress.”
“Hate seeing the major appreciation for Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe’s dress when she restricted her diet for weeks to fit into a dress of someone who was body positive for her era,” said another.
