((TW: Rant))

Kim Kardashian and the Met Gala.

I know this is probably some old news for some, but I can’t just shake this from me; it’s bothered me so much how such a thing could happen. I need to get this off my chest.

So as most of you have already seen, Kim Kardashian had worn the authentic Marilyn Monroe "Happy Birthday Mr. President" dress which dates back to 1962.

Admittedly, she wore the dress for a few moments before changing into a replica of the actual dress, but that begs the question, Why didn't she remain wearing the replica of the dress the entire time?

Not only this dress one of a kind, it is also known to be one of the most expensive dresses in the world. And also a part of history. Marilyn Monroe wore the dress to signify Women's rights and the freedom women have to wear whatever they want. Because of it's age, this dress is incredibly delicate, fragile, and sensitive. Even needing to be kept under appropriate climate levels and humidity levels while in display so it won't disintegrate. These types of historical items are so delicate, some museums question whether it is worth damaging the gown by trying to put it up on display, and whether the damage is worth it or not.

Unfortunately, Marilyn Monroe had been a victim of exploitation throughout her career. And even after her death many years ago, she is still exploited. This dress is hers, it was made and tailored to her, and it should've remained hers. She should've been the first and the last person to wear the dress. But because of peoples entitlement that has change.

I am beyond disgusted with Kim Kardashian and Ripley's for letting such a thing happen. Ripley's are the company which bought he dress when it was auctioned and put it out for display. Although they are not an official museum. they have seriously violated the ethics of Museums by letting someone wear such a gown. So even if they were to ever wish to become a museum, they have destroyed all chance of that happening ever.

Marilyn was a petite and small lady, she had a 24 or 25-inch waist, but even she struggled to fit into the dress. So much so, they had to sew her into the dress last minute. This is in no way to body-shame Kim but since she is obviously a much bigger hipped lady compared to Monroe, it is clear she would of not fit into the dress.

When looking at the Met Gala photos, you can clearly see where the damage has been done. The gown has been stretched and even Kim has stepped on the him of the dress several times. She even had that white coat with her for photos to hide the fact the dress couldn’t properly hit her. You’d think if that was the case, something would tell her or someone else would say that this wasn’t a good idea or it wouldn’t work out. Although Kim is not entirely to blame, Ripley's should've refused the idea and Kim's managers (if she has any) to shut down the idea too and instead let her wear the replica instead. And that Kim would've used her status in the world the express the importance of preserving such important things.

However, this is not the case and I am deeply heart-Broken by it.

Kim was not wearing an antique, she was wearing an artefact. And also, Ripley's had gifted Kim a lock of Marilyn's hair which I am disgusted by, these type of people have let Marilyn down. To all the people who let such a thing happen, I hope you all have your heads bowed down in shame.

There has even been pictures circulating online of the before and after of the dress after Kim had wore it; it showed visible strain and pulling on the fabric and clips, several rhinestones and gems had also come loose and fallen off.

What makes this even more saddening, is that this gown was worn by Marilyn Monroe just a few months before her death. Meaning this is one of the very last things we had of her. Although this might come across as weird, she wore this dress nude underneath and so practically her sweat and her essence was on that dress. But it has now been lost forever after being re-worn.

Kim Kardashian also were the very same authentic green ivy dress Marilyn did at the Golden Globe awards. Kim even was seen clutching the very same golden globe award Marilyn Monroe was presented to on that occasion.

Fortunately, I am not the only ones who thinks this online.

I’m going to politely put this in the best way I can: Excuse my language but for Fuck’s sake leave the poor woman alone, leave her some goddamn respect and let her rest in peace.

Sorry for that overly-long rant, hope you all enjoy the rest of your day.

(I’m also aware this isn’t my typical content/posts, really sorry but bare with.)
