Is that even the dress
Others found it difficult to come to terms that the dress was the same as Monroe's. They also didn't find the Met Gala the appropriate place to wear it.
Not on the same playing field
Monroe has vocal about the backlash she received in Hollywood for her look and persona, and Kardashian too has shared that she's felt immense pressure to prove herself. But, others say Kardashian hasn't proved herself to be on the same level and status as Monroe.
Only Kim could pull it off
Kardashian has been getting many kudos for her look. And considering Monroe is the only other person in history to wear the dress, it's definitely puts Kardashian in another league for many.
All blondes don't have the most fun
Others loved the look. But one Twitter user was not impressed by Kardashian's hair and felt it threw off the entire look.
Not an honor
Others say Kardashian and Monroe are not one in the same and Kardashian isn't deserving to wear something so special. Ripley's Believe it Or Not disagreed.
The sacrifices for fashion
Kardashian detailed how she dropped the pounds in order to wear the dress when she was initially turned down because it was ill-fitting. "I would wear a sauna suit twice a day, run on the treadmill, completely cut out all sugar and all carbs, and just eat the cleanest veggies and protein," she told Vogue of her Monroe weight loss plan. Many Twitter users find it appalling.
