Kim wore another Marilyn Monroe dress

After this year's Met Gala, most of the writing was about the dress that Kim Kardashian wore on the most famous red carpet.

Even the sparrows on the branch know she wore the iconic, nearly $ 5 million dress that Marilyn Monroe wore when she sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to President John F. Kennedy in 1962.

The perfectly slicked platinum hair in the bun and dangling diamond earrings completed the glam look, and although many would think, it was not a wig Kim spent the entire Sunday bleaching her hair for 14 hours. In addition, she had to lose 7 pounds because of this dress.

By the time Kim wore it, the dress was in a well-controlled vault, and the Kardashian was the first to use it after the legendary actress. However, she wore the original creation for only a few minutes while walking the red carpet. After him, she changed into her copy. And while everyone these days has been writing about whether she deserved to wear it at all, Kim revealed on her Instagram that it wasn’t the only legendary Monroe dress she wore that night. Namely, she later changed into another well-known creation.

It is an emerald dress by Norman Norell that Marilyn wore in 1962 at the Golden Globes when she also received the award.

‘Looking for the Jean Louis dress I wore at the Met Gala, I discovered that Heritage Auctions owns the legendary green dress. In my further research, I discovered that the owner of her award is my friend Jeff Leatham. I saw this as a sign that all the stars were in order. This will forever be one of the greatest privileges of my life, 'Kim wrote on Instagram.

It is still unknown whether this was the original dress or a replica, but it is known that in an earlier interview with Vogue, Kardashian revealed that she has a copy of that dress.
