Final Fitting: Kim Kardashian

[Director] How's the breathing?

How's it going?

It's, it's an art form,

but I got it.

[bright music]

Hi Vogue, it's Kim.

We are two days out from the Met

and we're doing a trial day.

This is actually the first time I've ever done this

where I've tested hair and makeup looks

before the actual event.

Isn't that what people do when they

test their wedding makeup?

Never done that either.

This is the world famous Mario Dedivanovic,

Makeup By Mario and Chris Appleton.

I only have hot guys do my glam.

Hot aging guys.

Oh stop.

Hot middle-aged men.

Hey, mom.

I didn't even see you there.

What are you doing?

Hi guys.

How are you?

What's going on?

Of course you'd pop up in my Vogue video.

[Kris chuckles]

Well, you know.

This year for the Met,

I am wearing a custom John Galliano Margiela couture gown.

So many amazing looks from every house

that John has been with has been on my mood board for years.

The second Margiela show I had been to

and I was so inspired by it.

I mean, I loved that it was corsets and the bodies

and it was like the most theatrical, beautiful story.

This has been a partnership

I'd say maybe four or five years in the making.

To put it lightly,

that is about four or five years of me stalking him to try

to see if he would ever design a look for me for the Met.

It finally just connected

and it was a dream to get to know him,

to spend time with him and-

And-

Oh, am I in your way?

Sorry.

I thought we were supposed to stick around.

[Kim chuckles]

For me, I would even want to do him so much more justice

because I just know the human being that he is.

This year's theme is sleeping beauties, reawakening fashion.

The dress code is the garden of time.

And when I heard this theme,

we like kind of just like played around

with what we thought this meant.

And imagining having the best night of your entire life

with your most magical person

and you just are in a garden.

You've overslept, you wake up after like

literally the best night of your life

and I'm just like running-

What was the best night of your life?

[Kim chuckles]

I'm fantasizing in my head.

Running out, my dress is falling off

because it was one of those nights

and I just grabbed my boyfriend's sweater

to like run off to make it to where I have to be.

It's like really the real life me

when I go to an event and I have to make it at like

home by 6:00 AM to get to carpool,

like real life happens and you're just,

sometimes I am in my makeup from the night before

and it is what it is.

But it's like that where you're just like woke up, bedhead.

I think we need a little more bedhead

cuz it's a Sleeping Beauty.

Just woke up after the night of my life in this garden,

in this secret garden.

[Kim chuckles]

This is the 11th Met that I've gone to.

That's wild.

Listen, at my first Met, I was lucky to be invited.

I was a plus one.

Second one, I was invited and I wore Alber Albas

for Lawn Van.

I didn't know it was happening that way

that I would wear a different designer each, you know, Met,

but I think it's so cool and magical that way.

I definitely have every Met dress saved

except for the Marilyn Monroe dress.

I actually asked North,

what's your favorite dress in my closet

if you can take one dress.

And she said, I want the Marilyn dress.

And I said, of course you do.

All right, we're gonna go try on the look

for the last time before the Met.

[bright music]

Phase one, corset.

This takes about 30 minutes.

I'm just kidding.

So the part of my garden fantasy is

this corset just stayed on the whole time

cuz it makes my boobs look so good and my waist.

So everything else came off.

I feel so snatched.

I won't even be able to communicate to you

how snatched I feel.

One thing about John is he'll think of every last detail.

So he'll think of like if you're standing

at the top of the stairs,

but the photographers are at the bottom of the stairs

and they're getting a glimpse up

and the skirt's made out of metal

and there's like little peekaboo holes within that.

He wanted to make sure that I am fully covered

in the appropriate places.

So I do have a custom Margiela thong.

So we're putting on the dress portion.

It's really the skirt,

but you'll see it's like a dress draping off.

I'll show you in a minute.

Dizavie' is a state of being undressed.

I learned that from Mr. John Galliano himself.

Say that dress was up,

it would be all the same texture,

but because it's fallen down,

we've allowed ourselves to use the reverse of it

to evoke the inside of the dress.

Oh, it's freezing through the forest,

so I just grabbed my boyfriend's sweater, cardigan.

Yep and it's falling off.

This is my shoe.

It's clever because if I had a shoe with a heel,

the heel gets stuck in the metal skirt.

And so that was our issue of walking.

So I'm going to have to put these on

and to wear these you're on your tiptoes

and you're balancing the whole time

flexing your calf muscles.

So that's what I'm gonna have to do

is stand on my tippy toes.

But I think ballerinas do it

and they probably have a lot of practice.

This is our only practice, but we'll do it.

I think we really need the height on this look,

so we gotta do what we gotta do.

Probably, we should measure,

that would be so interesting.

I'm 6'3.

So what am I, six feet?

I think you're six foot.

That's crazy.

But so then I can't lean back

and I'm on my toes from here on out.

Wow.

If I bend over I elongate.

So we're gonna go take some photos.

I'm so glad you guys are able to join my final fitting.

I'll see you on Monday.
