Even the annual Met Gala happened two days ago now (6 May), it's clear people still can't stop talking about the red carpet festivities, the celebrity interactions and analysing the weird and wonderful looks from the evening.

And it seems one particular celeb has caused a whole lot more buzz than others - none other than Kim Kardashian.

The SKIMS businesswoman rocked up to the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art steps dressed in an extremely waist-cinching custom Margiela by John Galliano strapless silver corset paired with a grey cardigan to complete the ensemble.

The Kardashians star sparked concerns among fans for the extreme look, with many worried about how 'unhealthy' it was.

Since then, Kim has revealed exactly how she actually managed to breathe in Met Gala outfit.

The 43-year-old opened up a little more about her getup - which tied in with the Costume Institute’s 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion' exhibit - in a behind-the-scenes video for Vogue.

The video saw Kim breathing through her mouth while being put into the corset which was rewoven with antique silver brocade.

The corset bodysuit was then covered by a silver floor-length skirt with leaf motifs.

"It’s an art form, but I got it," she said while her team laced into the garment.

While the corset looked extremely uncomfortable, given that Kim couldn't properly breathe, she surprisingly assured fans that she loved it as it made her boobs and waist look 'so good'.

"I’ll feel so snatched, I won’t even be able to communicate to you how snatched I feel," she added.

People have since rushed to social media to share their thoughts on Kim's comments with one X, formerly Twitter, user writing: "Can we all move on from the concept of being 'snatched'."

Another hit out: "We can tell she takes the 'beauty is pain' sentence too seriously..."

A third piped up: "In the photoshoot, she looks gorgeous in this, but I don't think it worked so well irl.

"Her facial expressions in all the red carpet photos look like she is in pain."

"Ouchhhhh," sympathised a fourth, while a fifth added: "I'm not sure why anybody would subject themselves to this, or think that it looks good.

"Your body is not meant to be compressed like that."

Someone else chimed in: "Unnecessary beauty standards."

And a final user echoed: "She was literally gasping for air."
