This year, the glamorous Met Gala 2022 charity event was remembered by the audience for its abundance of stylish and vibrant images, but the most talked about outfit is that of model Kim Kardashian. To be more precise, the focus of attention was on the iconic "naked dress" made for Marilyn Monroe , which the star brought out again.

Kardashian literally took it off the window of the Ripley Museum to show off for the paparazzi. OBOZREVATEL decided to tell all the details of the model's shocking appearance and recall how the legendary blonde looked in her dress (to see photos and videos, scroll to the bottom of the page).

It is known that Marilyn Monroe first appeared in public in a "naked dress" in 1962 on the stage of Madison Square Garden. The dress was made specifically for the singer to congratulate the 35th President of the United States John F. Kennedy on his 45th birthday.

Fashion designer Jean Louis Berthaud, better known as Jean Louis, created a revealing look for the star to perform Happy Birthday Mr. President in a spectacular way.

The dress, made of the finest French fabric at the time, emphasized all the curves of Monroe's figure and had an open back and a slit.

The curvaceous American model appeared in a legendary look on the red carpet of the Met Gala 2022 60 years after Monroe's performance. It is said that she had to lose weight for several weeks to make the outfit fit her figure, but the diet did not help and the dress still had to be altered.

It is also known that the star showed off in the original sample of a beige tight dress embroidered with rhinestones for only an hour, and then changed into a replica so as not to accidentally damage the fabric.
