Kim then went on to detail what she went through to wear the dress Ripley only lent her to wear on the red carpet. The 42-yeear-old put in a lot of work to don the dress for just minutes.
“All of this — this losing weight, dyeing the hair for 30 hours, leaving the hotel in a robe, getting there, changing on the red carpet, just walking to the red carpet, then changing again into a replica of the dress because we can’t risk sitting in it and eating dinner — is all for maybe 10 minutes of my life … like, that’s it,” Kardashian shared.
