literal lover know !

So, you DEFINITELY sawMiss Kimberly Noel Kardashian’sMet Galalook last night — it was, indubitably, a slay.

For this year’s theme of “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” Kim wore a tan corset literally DRENCHED in pearls to honor the late (and lest we forget, extremelyproblematic) designer.

When asked about the inspo behind her look on the Vogue red carpet livestream, Kim said: “I thought,What is more Karl?You know, the iconic Chanel pearls is what I always thought of. So we wanted to just be dripping in pearls.”

Like, yes, okay, absolutely. But as I kept up-and-downing Kim’s dress, I realized that I’d seen her in this before………..

That’s right. Her ICONIC 2007 Playboy photoshoot as seen onKeeping Up withThe Kardashians!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup, the infamous one that gave us, “You’re doing amazing, sweetie.”
