Kim Kardashian Had To Take On Some Special Breathing Techniques For Her Met Gala Dress

If anyone is willing to pay a high cost for beauty, Kim Kardashian would definitely be the one.

She’s one lady who’s willing to sacrifice important things just for a photo op.

You know…

Like breathing.

According to Page Six, Kimy went the extra mile to fit into her hour glass 2019 Met Gala dress. While some folks thought she might have had a whole rib removed to fit into the threads, it was actually intense gym sessions and a famed corsetier who helped her pull off the look.

Mr. Pearl, who himself has an 18-inch waist after 22 YEARS of slowly tightening his own corset, trained Kim into whittling down her middle to the point where she couldn’t sit down. He also taught her special breathing techniques to assist with the organ-smashing garment. This along with intense gym visits six days a week contributed to the exaggerated hour glass look Kim sported at The Met.

Kardashian went on Instagram a week after the gala to shout out Thierry Mugler, the man behind the dress. “7 months in the making and fittings in Montreal, Paris and LA,” Kim wrote. “Corset breathing lessons from none other than Mr. Pearl. It was worth it all!!! And this was the start of a magical inspiring connection. Stay tuned for more.”

Welp, hope it was worth the oxygen!
