00:00 At the 2024 Met Gala, Kendall Jenner made history by donning an archival Givenchy dress,
00:08 which the model claimed to be the first human to wear.
00:12 Fans quickly expressed their surprise on social media.
00:16 As soon as pictures were released, viewers noticed that Winona Ryder also seems to have
00:24 worn the gown in a 1999 photoshoot for Flant magazine.
00:30 Then you must be thinking what's the truth?
00:33 As per E! News reported, Winona's dress was a replica of the original presentation look,
00:40 which had never been worn prior to Kendall's appearance at the 2024 Met Gala.
00:46 This dress was originally created by Alexander McQueen as a black and nude
00:52 turtleneck gown with a sculpted shoulder and a neckline,
00:56 per Givenchy's fall-winter 1999 Hot Quarter presentation.
01:02 It also included over 500 hours of hand embroidery and vest cutouts that revealed
01:09 a glimpse of Kendall's behind. The Kardashian star told Vogue that she was unable to alter the dress
01:17 because it had been stored in the Givenchy's archives before the gala
01:22 and would be returning there immediately following the occasion.
01:27 Fortunately for Kendall, she said, the dress just fit perfect.
01:32 On the biggest night in fashion, Kendall didn't wear just one vintage item.
01:37 She also dazzled at after-parties in a white Givenchy by Alexander McQueen
01:43 spring-summer 1997 ensemble that included a white silk satin waterfall skirt and a white
01:52 lamb leather and feathered corset. The model maintained the angelic theme with a third dress,
01:58 wearing a baded lace ensemble by Andres Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood
02:05 that included a gold-silver corset with bell sleeves and sculpted edges.
