Unbelievable, but Kim Kardashian was initially against the much-talked-about outfit she wore at the Met Gala 2021!
Kim appeared in the March 2022 issue of Vogue and among many things also talked about her relationship with ex-husband Kanye West, the parenting of four children and her Balenciaga look that made everyone talk about her.
"I was against [that dress]. I thought, 'I do not know how I can wear the mask. "Why would I want to cover my face?" She told Vogue. "But Demna [Gvasalia, the creative director of Balenciaga] and the team told me: 'This is a costume gala. This is not a Vanity Fair party where everyone looks beautiful. There is a theme and you have to wear the mask. That's the look. "
Gvasalia explained the meaning of Kardashian's dress at the Met, noting that the mask ?? was "conceptually, quite important".
"People would immediately realize it was Kim because of her silhouette," he said. "They would not even need to see her face, you know?" And I think that's all the power of her celebrity, that people would not need to see her face to know that it's her. "
The bond between Gvasalia and Kardashian - which began thanks to the West - was further strengthened earlier this month, with Kim appearing in Balenciaga's spring / summer 2022 campaign.
"I always think, 'What comes next?' Because I always had Kanye, who knew exactly what the next fashion era would be for me. "And it's a little scary to be there alone, but also so liberating," Kardashian told Vogue about her ever-evolving style, which could certainly take a turn now that she's dating Pete Davidson.
As for her future style, Kim said maybe it's time to feel comfortable and 'casual' and stay without makeup because that might be what she likes to represent in the world.
