Kim Kardashian is mired in controversy because she damaged what is perhaps Marilyn Monroe's most iconic dress.
And on May 2, 2022, Kim Kardashian attended the Met Gala wearing the dress that Marilyn Monroe wore when she sang the iconic “Happy Birthday Mr. President” to John F. Kennedy in 1962.
Now, it was revealed that Kim Kardashian damaged the iconic dress, considered the most expensive garment in the world.
It was the collector Scott Fortner who discovered the photos that show the damage that Kardashian did to the dress, which is almost irreparable, due to the age of the garment and its historical value.
The dress cost 12 thousand dollars in 1962, which now amounts to 114 thousand dollars; It was also auctioned in 1999 for more than a million.
Later, Marilyn Monroe's dress went up for bid again and reached 4.8 million, and was acquired by the Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum, an institution that lent it to Kim Kardashian.
The value of the dress rose to 10 million dollars for the simple fact that Kim Kardashian wore it; However, it was too small for her and by forcing it on she damaged it.
According to experts, Kardashian should pay more than 10 million for damages; However, other specialists believe that it is the Ripley Museum itself that must cover the costs.
