The 41-year-old slipped into the dress upon arriving at the museum, breathily climbed the Met steps for photos, and then immediately changed into a replica to enjoy the remainder of the night.

Fans think Blac Chyna copied Kim Kardashian's Met Gala look after ... (Page Six)

Blac Chyna is being called out by fans for seemingly trying to copy the sparkly look Kim Kardashian wore to the 2022 Met Gala channeling Marilyn Monroe.

However, the model sued Kim, Khloé Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kris Jenner, claiming they allegedly used their influence to kill the second season of her and Rob’s E! reality show, “Rob & Chyna.” “Not her trying to be Kim K now lmao,” one user wrote in the comments section of Chyna’s post. Chyna – who lost her trial against Kim and the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner family on the same night of the gala – wore a nude dress with diamond embellishments in the clip, presumably from her own collection.

Her profile has since gone private, but the statement was reposted by Madelief Hohé, curator of fashion and costume at the Dutch Kunst Museum in the Hague. Full stop,” read an Instagram post from the former head of conservation at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, Sarah Scaturro. She outlined how lotions and perfumes as well as walking on the hem and other missteps can cause damage to a garment. Monroe donned the dress while performing her iconic rendition of the song in 1962 at Madison Square Garden for John F. Kennedy, Jr., with whom she’s long thought to have had an affair. Textile conservators have expressed outrage that Kim Kardashian wore Marilyn Monroe’s “Happy Birthday Mr. President” dress up the steps to the Met Gala on Monday, May 2.
