While on the red carpet, Kardashian explained her struggles to even get into the dress.
She said: "I tried it on and it didn't fit me. I said, 'Give me three weeks.' I had to lose 16 pounds down today.
"It was such a challenge. It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven't had carbs or sugar in about three weeks."
Monroe's dress originally cost $12,000 before Ripley's purchased it from Julien's Auction in November 2016, paying $4.81 million for it.
