KIM Kardashian was spotted huddling underneath a bed sheet after she left the Met Gala on Monday night.
The reality television star was slammed for promoting unrealistic beauty standards after her dress featured a super cinched-in waist.
Kim was covered by her assistants after she walked out of the lavish A-lister event at the end of the night before she headed to the after-party.
The Kardashian’s Met Gala look comprised of a silver dress and corset that clung to her curves.
The theme this year was the Garden of Time, which drew inspiration from the exhibition theme, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.
Kim’s corset, Maison Margiela Artisanal designed by John Galliano, was heavily cinched at the waist with several metal flowers decorated over the front.
Kim’s floor-length skirt was made of several metal flowers atop a sheer base that covered her bare legs.
The Skims founder held a small gray cardigan over her shoulders as she posed for photos.
Her bleach blond locks were lightly styled and she wore a face full of makeup.
Kim entered the event with her sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, and her mom, Kris Jenner, who attended with her boyfriend, Corey Gamble.

After leaving, she clutched a white sheet around herself while her assistants accompanied her to a waiting car.
UNREALISTIC BEAUTY
Fans flocked to X, formerly Twitter, to say that Kim was perpetuating an unrealistic body standard.
“How can she even breathe? Her and her entire family are obsessed with perpetuating unrealistic beauty expectations. They are not empowering or fashion icons,” wrote a fan in response to a video of Kim arriving at the event.
“WHERE IS MISS KIM K WAIST ?!? #MetGala,” added another.
“She looks like she’s trying not to faint,” replied a third with a stressed-face emoji.
“I can’t wait for someone interview Kim so I can watch her try to take enough air into her diaphragm to say a sentence #MetGala,” noted a fourth.
SISTER DISAPPOINTMENT
This was not the first time fans slammed the Kardashians for their Met Gala looks, with social media fans claiming Kendall and Kylie’s looks were boring.
Kendall stepped out in a full-length black gown that was cut in half at her waist, exposing some of her back and butt.
It featured a lace detailing around the waistline, which accentuated her hourglass figure.
The top cut low down her chest, exposing her cleavage.
The Givenchy Haute Couture gown came from the fall-winter 1999 collection.
Met Gala 2024 Theme
The theme of the 2024 Met Gala is The Garden of Time, which draws inspiration from the latest exhibition of the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.
The designer revealed that the dress had never been worn before and Kendall was the first person to ever debut the look in public.
The dress required 500 hours to hand-embroider the more than 100,000 beads and sequins.
“Boring and disappointing,” one person tweeted, as another agreed, “Basic and boring. Don’t bother showing up next time.”
“That dress looks so cheap,” another lamented. “Can’t she afford anything?”
“Lovely outfit, but I expected more from her,” one person stated.
COME ON, KYLIE
Kylie did not escape the critics either, with several followers slamming her look for being supposedly basic.
She turned up in an ivory Oscar de la Renta gown with a cone-shaped chest covering and flowing train behind her.
“Goddess of disappointment?” one person tweeted.
