The internet is sweating over Kim Kardashian's 2024 Met Gala look.
As stars descended upon New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art May 6 dressed in glamorous attire, the Kardashians star raised eyebrows with an unsuspecting accessory. In addition to her custom Maison Margiela Couture dress, which featured silver floral embellishments across a waist-cinching corset and sheer skirt, Kim donned a fuzzy gray sweater for her walk down the red carpet.

And given how fashion's biggest night usually brings out to most lavish looks, the internet was utterly perplexed by the 43-year-old's choice to pair her high-glam gown with such a casual-looking cardigan.
"Kim Kardashian is definitely giving had an outfit malfunction," one fan wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, "and threw on a sweater but she still ate."
Meanwhile, another user quipped, "Kim's dress had to have broken somehow bc there's no way that ugly a-- rag of a sweater was part of it."
However, it seems Kim's sweater is part of her outfit. As seen in Instagram photos taken in a professional studio prior to her arrival, the 43-year-old posed with the cardigan wrapped around her shoulders like a shawl.
Since this year's Met Gala centers around the "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" exhibit, some people also felt the pullover was an intentional nod to the theme.
"Her little sweater is adorable," an X user wrote, while another suggested that it could be "functional" once inside the building. "on theme. gorgeous. oh my haute couture. YES. love the structure. sleepy- but elegant. like she's wrapped in a sheet."
