The Marilyn Monroe Collection has shared photos of the dress reportedly featured in Ripley’s Believe It or Not! On Instagram back on June 13, claiming it now has “missing crystals” and that some “were hanging by a thread.”
The viral footage in question was taken on June 12 by ChadMichael Morrisette at the museum’s Hollywood location, according to historian and collector Scott Fortner’s account.
So much for preserving ‘the integrity of the dress and preservation’. @ripleysbelieveitornot, was it worth it?’ read a caption that mocks a statement Ripley’s released about the reality star who borrowed the dress.

The Marilyn Monroe Collection shared “before and after” photos of the dress featured in Ripley’s Believe It or Not! to prove the alleged damage
Kardashian, 41, was given the dress on loan from officials at the museum, where the 60-year-old dress has been stored in a temperature-controlled environment since it was purchased for a record $5 million in 2016.
“Great care has been taken to preserve this piece of pop culture history,” Ripley’s said in May.
‘With input from clothing protectors, appraisers and archivists, the condition of the garment was top priority. Believe it or not! the dress didn’t require any adjustments and Kim even turned into a replica after the red carpet!’
Hundreds of fans took to the comments to point out the alleged damage in the “before and after” photos shared by the Marilyn Monroe collection, although there was no way to confirm the validity of the images.
“I miss so many crystals and those tears,” one wrote. ‘What a disaster!!’
The viral footage in question was reportedly shot by ChadMichael Morrisette at the museum’s Hollywood location on June 12.
The account, which is maintained by historian and collector Scott Fortner, claimed the dress had “missing crystals” and that some were “hanging by a thread.”
Images shared by Fortner claim to show the dress with several crystals missing from the back of the design
“Not just the stretching around the zipper, but if you look at the top left, several crystals are missing!” added another.
“Damage has been done and cannot be repaired,” complained someone else.
“The fabric is torn. Imagine what would have happened to it if Kim had worn the dress even longer. I’m so sad to see this.’
DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Kardashian and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for comment.
Kardashian was the first person to don the dress since Monroe wore it in 1962. She admitted she lost 16 pounds in three weeks to fit the dress, but she still couldn’t zip the dress up.
