KIM KARDASHIAN wore MARILYN MONROE’s dress last night at the Met Gala. It was the crystal-studded nude gown from when Marilyn sang “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to JOHN F. KENNEDY in 1962.
Since the 60-year-old dress is a piece of history and was custom-made for Marilyn, Kim couldn’t have it tailored.
She told the “Vogue” correspondent, quote, “I tried it on and it didn’t fit me. I said, ‘Give me three weeks.’ I had to lose 16 pounds down today. I haven’t had carbs or sugar in about three weeks. We’re having [a] pizza and donut party back at the hotel [after].”

She borrowed it from the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! museum in Orlando. It holds the Guinness World Record for being the most expensive dress sold at an auction . . . at $4.8 million.
