Met Gala: Kim Kardashian 'honoured' to wear 'evocative piece of fashion history'

Kim Kardashian has said she is "so honoured" to have worn Marilyn Monroe's "evocative piece of fashion history" at the Met Gala 2022.

The SKIMS founder wore the skintight gown worn by Monroe when she sang 'Happy Birthday' to then-US president John F. Kennedy in 1962.

The 41-year-old loaned the outfit from the Ripley's Believe It or Not! museum, which paid $4.8m (£3.9m) for the dress at an auction in November 2016.
