You’d expect red carpets to be all glitz and grace—but for Kim Kardashian at the 2025 Met Gala, things took a slightly messy turn.
While arriving in style with her daughter North West, Kim experienced an awkward stumble after a security guard accidentally stepped on her dress.
Kim Trips, Then Snaps at Security on the Met Gala Red Carpet
Kim, 44, was dressed in a striking leather bodycon gown by Chrome Hearts, complete with a wide fedora and layered diamond jewelry.
But the moment was anything but smooth.
As she made her way toward the entrance, a security guard unintentionally trod on her gown’s train, causing her to lurch forward.
Clearly irritated, Kim turned around, shot a sharp look, and appeared to scold the guard while raising her hand in frustration.
The whole interaction was captured on camera and quickly made its way onto TikTok.
As she entered a waiting vehicle before hitting the Met’s iconic steps, she still looked visibly annoyed, glancing back with a glare.
Kim’s Outfit: Tailored Drama in Head-to-Toe Leather
Staying true to the Met Gala’s theme of “Tailoring Black Style,” Kim’s outfit channeled the spirit of 1930s and 1940s zoot suits, traditionally worn by Black men during that era.
Her sleek leather dress hugged her curves, and her accessories—cascading diamond necklaces and oversized earrings—added an old-school glam touch.
She kept her long dark hair loose, but her face was partially obscured by her dramatic headwear, though it was clear she wore heavy makeup for the occasion.
North West Almost Made Her Met Gala Debut
Kim’s 11-year-old daughter, North West, was by her side and almost made her official Met Gala debut.
The pair posted matching TikToks before the event, flaunting their edgy looks.
North wore a bold cowhide-print jacket and shorts, teamed with high Nike socks and $1,200 Rick Owens sneakers.
Her look was accessorized with silver and turquoise jewelry, and she wore her hair in long braids dyed in different shades of blue.
She also sported full makeup, including a nude lip, which sparked conversation online—not just for the style, but for the bigger drama brewing in the background.
Kanye West Rants About Parenting and Custody Online
While Kim and North were making fashion headlines, Kanye West was once again making waves—this time in a livestream where he vented about not seeing his children.
The rapper, 47, lashed out about his ongoing custody issues, accusing Kim of keeping their kids away from him.
In a profanity-laced rant, Kanye said he was tired of not being part of his children’s lives and blamed celebrities and the legal system for supporting what he described as an unfair situation.
He specifically mentioned North, Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (5), expressing frustration that he had to go through lawyers just to get time with them.
West Slams Celebrity Culture and North’s Music Collaboration
Part of Kanye’s frustration stemmed from a rumored collaboration between North and rapper Playboi Carti—something he was strongly against.
He claimed he didn’t approve of the project and accused Kim of letting celebrities influence their daughter’s image.
Kanye was especially upset that Carti allegedly approached Kim directly to include North on a track, shortly after excluding Kanye from a recent album.
He didn’t hold back, stating that no one should be using his daughter for clout, especially not without his approval.
He reiterated his belief that, as the father, he should have the final say in major decisions involving their children.
Public Reaction: Sympathy or Concern?
Kanye’s social media behavior triggered mixed reactions.
While some fans sympathized with his pain, others criticized the aggressive tone and chaotic energy, warning that his public outbursts might harm his custody case.
One commenter sarcastically noted that Kim wouldn’t even need to bring legal evidence—judges could just scroll through Kanye’s posts to understand the situation.
Others pointed out the irony of Kanye attacking celebrities while still participating in the industry’s spotlight.
Family Drama Overshadows a Fashionable Night
The Kardashian-West family continues to live under public scrutiny, especially with their children growing up in the media spotlight.
Despite the Met Gala being a night about fashion, the tension between Kim and Kanye—and how it affects their kids—keeps making headlines.
Kim has yet to publicly respond to Kanye’s latest comments, and representatives for both parties haven’t issued formal statements.
