Kim Kardashian had quite the shocker when she was pictured dashing back to her hotel after attending the Met Gala in her Schiaparelli naked pearl dress on Monday.
While she looked incredible at the start of the night, it turns out wearing strings of beads is not the most practical choice on any sort of evening out.
While she stepped out of the car, Kim, 42, looked like could easily trip up over the strands of pearls in her killer heels.
And sadly she did get herself in a bit of a taffle, because minutes later, the strings of pearls were pictured looking broken and hanging from the garment in shreds.
The fashion icon left a trail of pearls on the floor and shocked Kim could be seen looking down at the damage as she ran inside the hotel, cutting her night short.
