Gown and a nice cardi? As is customary, Kim Kardashian caused a stir as she arrived at 2024’s Met Gala — this year she opted for a Maison Margiela Artisanal by John Galliano chainmail-esque silver skirt with an industrial-level corset made from rewoven antique silver brocade.
The internet has wailed about the size of her waist — certainly snug inside one of John Galliano’s constricting constructions — but it was her choice of shawl that has raised eyebrows. A delicately embroidered number this was not — rather, the Queen of the Met wrapped up in an old-looking, piling “thistle-grey” cashmere cardigan. The sort you’d rather find at the bottom of an Oxfam bin, or the back of your grandpa’s closet (cc: grandpacore).
