Mackie was only 23 years old when, under the direction of Louis, drew the sketch for Monroe.
At the time, Louie said he didn't know what occasion Monroe would be wearing the dress for but, nonetheless, the design was specifically for Monroe, hence his feelings about Kardashian wearing the sparkly dress.«I thought it was a big mistake,» the 82-year-old designer told EW. "[Marilyn] was a goddess. A crazy goddess, but a goddess.
She was just fabulous. Nobody photographs like that. And it was done for her.
It was designed for her. Nobody else should be seen in that dress.«According to the entertainment magazine, Mackie also echoed historians' concerns that wearing the gown could prove damaging to the preservation and structural integrity of the dress.Turner Classic Movies host Alicia Malone, who spoke with Mackie as part of the network's film series , also told EW she agreed with Mackie's assertion that the integrity of the gown could be compromised after Kardashian, who lost 16 pounds in three weeks to fit into the gown, strutted arm in arm to the Met Gala with her boyfriend, Pete Davidson.»There are all the issues with the actual preservation of the dress and things like oxygen can affect a dress," she told EW. «Usually, these outfits are kept very much in controlled environments and we see that with the Met.
