Yes, It's True: Kim Kardashian's Dress Didn't Allow Her to Sit or Pee the Entire Met Gala

Kim Kardashian wore one of her most memorable looks to date at the 2019 Met Gala. It didn't come without a price, however. In a behind-the-scenes video released by Vogue, which detailed Kim's fittings and preparty pampering, it's made clear just how formfitting her crystal-adorned Thierry Mugler dress was. In fact, it prevented her from sitting down or using the restroom throughout the entirety of the event.

"Wish me luck."

Inspired by 1957's Boy on a Dolphin, starring Sophia Loren, the dress was meant to make Kim look like she had emerged from the sea - specifically Malibu - and onto the red carpet. To create the effect of fabric clinging to her body, the design team used silicone and suited Kim up in an extremely tight corset by Mr Pearl underneath. Addressing Vogue's Anna Wintour in a to-camera moment, Kim said, "Anna, if I don't sit down for dinner, now you know why. I'll be walking around mingling, talking, but I cannot hardly sit." She later added, "Wish me luck. I won't be able to pee for about four hours."

In a sentimental moment, Kim reflected on how it had always been a dream of hers to attend the Met Gala. "I used to sit at home in bed on my computer looking at all of the pictures of everyone - dreaming one day that I could ever attend a Met ball and never really even believing that that would ever happen," she said. "I'm honestly so humbled by the idea that this is my life." Watch the fascinating video ahead.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
