The video, which was released on May 7, shows Kim, 38, at her last fitting to get into her “Camp” themed outfit. Thierry’s manager Jean Baptiste explained they got a custom corset made by the French designer Mr. Pearl, whom Jean called “the best corsetier in the world” to pull together her waist. She also wore Spanx.

Fans criticized Kim’s waist as pictures surfaced of her dress. Her personal trainer Melissa Alcantar hopped to her defense on Instagram and wrote, “To make things clear 1. This dress is corseted BUT 2. Kim trains her ass off 6 days a f**king week, she wakes up early af and is dedicated. 3. I paved the road for her but SHE did the work! I love compliments either way.”

She continued, “I don’t give a s**t about your opinions on her body if you think she fake or not! I see her every morning, I see her train and I see her sweat and I see all the work she does outside of the gym and THAT is commendable!”
