Jenner, Kylie, experiences distress due to getting trapped in her £700 designer footwear following a fashion disaster at the Met Gala.
Kylie Jenner's Met Gala Agony
It was a night of glamour and pain for reality star Kylie Jenner, 27, after she ended up screaming in discomfort following a wardrobe malfunction at the 2025 Met Gala. The mother-of-two dazzled on the red carpet with a Ferragamo corset, grey bralette, and low-slung skirt featuring a high leg slit. She completed the look with matching sheer opera gloves and strappy black heels, also from Ferragamo.
However, the infamous quote "beauty is pain" soon became a reality for Kylie after she got trapped in her designer shoes, which cost an eye-watering £700. Her stylist, Maximilian Davis, had advised her to tape her feet into the heels to maintain stability. The ordeal left Kylie screaming in agony as her team attempted to free her.
In a hilarious video posted to her Instagram Story, Kylie's team could be seen spraying her feet with water in an attempt to loosen the tape. Sparing no drama, Kylie exclaimed, "Max told me to tape my feet into the shoes and now my feet are stuck in the shoes." After what seemed like an eternity, Kylie eventually shared a snap of her manicured feet, proclaiming, "They're okay!!!"
While Kylie played the fashionable diva, her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, opted for a more laid-back approach. The A Complete Unknown actor, 29, chose to spend his Met Gala evening bonding with friends, watching the NBA playoffs. Chalamet shared Instagram snaps of his boys' night in, complete with a selfie rocking a black hat and gray hoodie, and another picture showing his feet kicked up while he watched the Celtics play via a small tablet.
The enchanting spectacle of the Met Gala did not seem to entice Chalamet, as he wrote in one impassioned post, "Sh*tting myself because this game is insane." This contrast between Kylie's extravagant Met Gala experience and Chalamet's laid-back attitude only added to the talk around their blossoming relationship.
Insights:- Possible use of temporary measures like adhesive tapes or gel pads to manage prolonged wear of high heels at high-profile events like the Met Gala.- The emphasis on visual impact, occasionally at the expense of comfort, is a common trend among celebrities and stylists attending such events.- Taping feet as a short-term solution to prevent blisters or improve grip is an unofficially reported method in fashion journalism.
