The Met Gala or Met Ball is an annual fundraising event held to raise funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York City. It's one of the biggest nights of the year for fashion as the A List flock to the venue decked in their finest attire, ready to be photographed and represent the very best in fashion design.
But one guest in particular, reality TV star Kim Kardashian, has caused as a stir for her choice of outfit at this year's event after choosing to wear an iconic and historic dress, kept usually in Ripley's Believe it Or Not Museum in Orlando, Florida.
French-born Hollywood costume designer Jean-Louis created the dress for Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe, who wore it when she sang 'Happy Birthday' to President John F Kennedy on his 45th birthday in 1962.
