here are a ridiculous number of award ceremonies in America, but it seems the Met Gala in New York gets the most coverage for what celebritie­s wear.

This week the gala was in the Metropolit­an Museum of Modern Art and it was a who’s who of who could wear the most extravagan­t outfit.

All the Kardashian sisters were there, including Kim who stole the show, but not really because it was her, but because of what she wore. She donned the $5m dress Marilyn Monroe wore when she sang Happy Birthday to President Kennedy in front of thousands at Madison Square Gardens in 1962.

Kim had to shed 13lb to wear it, which shows how

tiny Marilyn was.
