At the Golden Globes, 27-year-old Kylie Jenner dazzled in a vintage Versace gown. However, during the celebratory dinner, the dress splits at the seam, revealing the star’s thigh. This incident brings to mind a similar situation with Kim Kardashian, when the legendary Marilyn Monroe dress stretched and tore after the diva wore it to the Met Gala.

At the recent Golden Globes ceremony, Kylie Jenner made a grand appearance with her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet. For the occasion, the star chose a vintage Versace gown from 1999. However, the 27-year-old Keeping Up with the Kardashians alum encountered a wardrobe issue as she took her seat.

Fans noticed that several seams on Jenner’s chainmail dress had split, revealing part of her upper thigh while she posed for photos alongside the Fanning sisters. Regardless, Kylie didn’t seem fazed by the wardrobe mishap and continued to enjoy her time at the event.

Earlier, Kylie Jenner’s older sister, Kim Kardashian, wore Marilyn Monroe’s iconic dress. At the Met Gala 2022, the reality TV star famously donned one of Marilyn Monroe’s most famous dresses — a stunning nude gown that holds a significant place in Hollywood history.

In 1962, Marilyn Monroe famously serenaded President John F. Kennedy at Madison Square Garden, singing “Happy Birthday” in a performance that led the gown to be nicknamed the “Happy Birthday, Mr. President dress.” The dress sparked a sensation at the time due to its revealing design and was recently dubbed “the original naked outfit” by Kim Kardashian.

Marilyn Monroe requested her designer to create “a truly historical dress, a dazzling dress that’s one of a kind.” The initial sketch was crafted by Bob Mackie, then a newly graduated designer, and the vision was brought to life by designer Jean Louis. Reportedly, Marilyn paid $1,440 for the iconic piece.

The vintage gown suffered damage. The fabric stretched, holes appeared, and many crystals hung loosely or fell off entirely. The incident sparked outrage among preservationists and fashion enthusiasts, who criticized the decision to allow such a priceless piece of history to be worn. Many argued that artifacts like this should remain in controlled environments to prevent further deterioration. Despite the backlash, the moment became one of the most talked-about events in pop culture.

The incident sparked a fresh wave of discussion about Kylie. Meanwhile, her appearance remains a frequent topic of public debate.
