Before Kim Kardashian West debuted her iconic skin-tight custom Mugler dress at the2019 Met Galaearlier this year, her husbandKanye Westwas skeptical about the reality star’s look.
During Sunday night’sKeeping Up with the Kardashiansepisode, the couple bickered on the eve of the annual New York City-based event in May after Kanye, 42, expressed disapproval of Kim’s corset and Thiery Muggler dress, which she said had taken eight months to create.
“I went through this transition where being a rapper, looking at all these girls and looking at my wife, like, ‘Oh my girl needs to be just like the other girls showing their body off.’ I didn’t realize that that was affecting my soul and my spirit as someone who is married and the father of now … about to be four kids. A corset is a form of underwear, it’s hot, for who though?” the rapper told Kim, 38.
However, Kanye’s criticisms did not go over well with his wife.
“So the night before the Met you’re going to come in here and say that you’re not into a corset vibe?” Kim responded. “You’re giving me really bad anxiety. You knew last night I had really bad anxiety and I don’t need any more negative energy and for you say you’re now not into me wearing a tight dress.”
“You are my wife and it affects me when pictures are too sexy,” Kanye fired back. However, Kim did not back down.

“You built me up to be this sexy person and confidence and all this, and just because you’re on a journey and transformation doesn’t mean I’m in the same spot with you,” Kim told him.
“Okay, alright. Okay, alright cool,” a visibly annoyed Kanye said before walking out of the room, as his wife said to her friends, includingJonathan Cheban, “That’s absolutely ridiculous.”
“My dress is dripping wet and it’s like I’m coming out of the ocean because North always says she’s an alien and I’m a mermaid,” she explained.
As seen in Sunday’s episode, Kimhad been anxiousheading into the 2019 Met Gala, particularly due to the arrival of herfourth child, which was scheduled to occur in the same week.

While Kim knew she’d be leaving town just days before her surrogate was due to give birth, she had a plan in place just in case.
And even though she only planned to be in New York City for the Met Gala for “36 hours,” her nerves were at an all-time high.
Of course, fans who keep up with the Kardashians in real-time know that everything worked out fine. Kim and Kanye welcomed son Psalm via surrogate on May 10. The couple is also parents to daughtersChicago, 19 months, andNorth, 6, plus sonSaint, 3.
