It is not the first time that a renowned influencer has worn one of the historic dresses of a fashion brand. Kim Kardashian did it at the 2022 Met Gala with Marilyn Monroe's dress. The end of that story is very similar to what happened with Kylie Jenner. The young woman wore a dress by Versace and ended up causing serious damage from wear and tear.
The young woman attended the Golden Globes gala accompanying her partner, Timothee Chalamet. In the end, neither of them ended up being the protagonist. The actor did not take home any statuettes and the actress had to endure the reprimand of thousands of fans when it came to light, thanks to a photograph, that her dress had suffered a tear at the waist
Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian, united by the tragedy of two historic dresses
It is worth remembering that Versace's spring/summer 1999 collection is an iconic moment in fashion history, marked by the brand's return after the tragic death of Gianni Versace in 1997. Well, this long evening dress with rhinestone details and pronounced slits will never again be 100% original.
The controversy of this case increases because it is not the first member of the Kardashian clan to have such an event occur to her. Kim Kardashian wore Marilyn Monroe's dress in 2022. This garment was loaned by Ripley's Believe It or Not! and, although Kim only wore it for the red carpet before changing into a replica, subsequent photos showed apparent damage, including loose crystals and worn threads.
For this reason, historians, conservationists and fashion lovers in general argue that pieces like this should be preserved in controlled conditions and not worn because of their fragility.
