Kim Kardashian never fails to make the headlines – be it cause of her personal life or her fashion sense or even her business. The reality star made the news big time when she wore Marilyn Monroe’s original 1962 Jean Louis gown to the Met Gala 2022 red carpet. While some loved the way Kim pulled off the look, others criticised her for wearing the iconic dress.

For those who don’t know, it was in this gown that Marilyn famously sang “Happy Birthday” to President John F. Kennedy. Now, weeks after the red carpet event, the sketcher of the dress fashion designer Bob Mackie has revealed how he felt seeing the KUWTK star wearing it. Bob during his early career worked as an assistant to Jean Louis.

During a recent conversation with EW, fashion designer Bob Mackie – who drew the sketch for the original Marilyn Monroe gown revealed he wasn’t impressed by Kim Kardashian wearing the OG piece. While previewing the new Turner Classic Movies’ fashion on film series ‘Follow the Thread’, he said, “I thought it was a big mistake.”
