Let me get this straight. She couldn’t fit, so she starved herself, wore a sauna suit, who knows what else, and still couldn’t fit. So she wore it anyway, STRETCHING IT, and had to wear the fur on the red carpet. Then she got up the stairs, and changed into the replica. WHY.
Kardashian, who said she didn’t initially fit into the dress, shed 16 pounds for the occasion because she wasn’t allowed to alter the gown and reportedly had to drape a fur stole over the partially fastened zipper.
