Before making her grand entrance at the 2025 Met Gala, Kim Kardashian had a little stumble—but she handled it like a true pro. A video quickly went viral showing her bodyguard accidentally tripping over the long train of her dramatic Chrome Hearts gown right outside The Mark Hotel in New York City. This happened just moments before she headed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the biggest night in fashion.

Even though it was an awkward moment, Kim stayed cool and collected. She immediately offered her hand to help steady her bodyguard and checked if he was okay before moving on to her car, according to E! News. The clip has since spread across social media, with many fans applauding her calm and graceful reaction.

Kim’s 11-year-old daughter, North West, was spotted leaving the hotel with her mom but didn’t join the red carpet walk. This is in line with the Met Gala’s strict rule that no one under 18 is allowed to attend the event.

Meanwhile, North’s dad, Kanye West, did not show up at the gala amid ongoing talks about their custody arrangements. Kim hasn’t publicly addressed their situation.

Kim wasn’t the only Kardashian-Jenner to shine that night. Her sisters Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner also turned heads with their stunning outfits. Kendall went for a bold, suit-inspired dress by Torishéju, featuring a deep neckline and a long train. Kylie chose a custom Ferragamo halter gown with a sheer corset-style top and a high-slit tweed skirt.

Both sisters posed separately on the red carpet, perfectly embracing this year’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, which celebrated elegance tailored just for you.
