Kim hopped straight on her lavish private jet after the event and headed off to the 2024 OMR Festival in Hamburg, Germany.

The festival celebrated digital marketing and Kim gave a business talk.

While on stage, Kim told speakers it’s important to keep her commitments as she had been at the Met just 18 hours before.

“I went from there to the plane,” she told the host, according to People.

“Slept on the plane and here I am.

“It was really good to not go to all the after parties. It’s not really my thing to go out so it was the perfect excuse, because I really wanted to come here,” she continued.

Kim then said she used the Met as a business opportunity.

“It’s an event that you really aspire to get invited to,” she said.

“I’ve always been so into fashion and beauty that I wanted to go and see what everyone would look like and what they were wearing and just to make connections and meet people, which leads to some business ideas and some connections and collaborations.”

“I think it didn’t start off with that intent, I was just happy to be invited and among so many people I loved and respected and as you become friendly with those people and opportunities come about the nature of it could change,” she concluded.

Kim Kardashian shocks fans with her TINY waist at Met Gala as fans ask ‘how many ribs did she have removed’
The Kardashian’s Met Gala look comprised of a silver dress and corset that clung to her curves.

The Met gives celebrities a theme which they must dress to each year.

This year was the Garden of Time, which drew inspiration from the exhibition theme, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.

Kim’s corset was Maison Margiela Artisanal designed by John Galliano.

Her outfit featured a heavily cinched-in waist with metal work shaped into flowers all over the front.

Kim also rocked a floor-length chain skirt that was adorned with more applique flowers.

COVERED UP?

The Skims founder held a small gray cardigan over her shoulders which she clutched close to her as she smiled for the cameras.

When she left, 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.

She was escorted into a waiting car, before leaving directly for Germany.

Fans flocked to X, formerly Twitter, to say that Kim was perpetuating an unrealistic body standard.

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.

“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’s waist?” 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,” noted a fourth.
