ANNA Wintour’s reported demands to Kim Kardashian during the 2019 Met Gala have been revealed.
The Vogue editor-in-chief didn’t care about the limits the reality star’s dress put on her and repeatedly told her to sit down, according to an upcoming book all about the fashion journalist.
Kim and Anna have been longtime friends, as they’re both often at various inner-circle events, like ones at fashion weeks all over the world and the latter’s own Met Gala.
Despite the pair’s positive relationship, that didn’t stop the Vogue boss from calling out Kim during the 2019 affair.
In former New York Magazine editor Amy Odell’s forthcoming book, Anna: The Biography, she detailed the interaction.
According to Time’s excerpt from the upcoming title, Anna repeatedly told Kim to sit down at the esteemed event.
For the occasion, the 41-year-old wore a custom latex Thierry Mugler dress that sat tight against her figure.
The design accentuated her hourglass curves with its body-hugging fit and the intense corset she wore underneath.
At the camp-themed event, Anna reportedly kept asking her friend and former Vogue West Coast director Lisa Love to get Kim to “sit down.”
Lisa had to explain to the 72-year-old that the reality star was actually unable to sit because of the tight dress she was wearing.

In 2021, Kim continued her new tradition of wearing attire that made it difficult to breathe at the Met Gala when she wore a full-body ensemble.
Now only did she wear a that included a dress, leggings, and cape, but the ensemble went up and over her head and face, as well.
Her mom Kris Jenner later shared to Ellen DeGeneres that the Skims founder “couldn’t see and she couldn’t breathe” throughout the whole event.
She added: “So my boyfriend Corey [Gamble] was walking around, we were all together and he was leading her to where we were supposed to go, and helping with her ponytail.
“It was suddenly he was like, you know, somebody pulling her around, and a hairstylist all at the same time.”
Kris continued: “She could not see, and then halfway through the Met Ball, they asked her to do something, like, do a dance to this… for Vogue.
“And we were on the stage, and she had no idea what she was doing. It was so funny.”
This year, though, Kim promised fans that she’ll be switching it up a bit.
She shared that she’ll be going with a look that’s a bit more comfortable.
Earlier this month, Kim revealed to Access Hollywood of this year’s Met Gala: “I am going, and yes I will be able to see this year.”
She was then asked about her boyfriend, “Will you be there with Pete [Davidson]?” and responded with a knowing smile.
The reality star cryptically teased: “I’m not sure. You’re going to have to wait and find out.”
Fans have been speculating that she will wear Marilyn Monroe’s iconic gold dress to this year’s affair.
From visiting the museum where the $5million dress is held to admitting she can’t alter the garment, her followers think they’ve spotted several clues that point to that specific outfit.
