• Kim Kardashian attended her 10th Met Gala on Monday.
• She didn't top her 2022 Met Gala outfit, as her Marilyn Monroe look was her most iconic to date.
• Kardashian's dress for the 2014 Met Gala was lackluster compared to some of her other looks.

Kardashian's simple blue evening gown for the 2014 Met Gala was a bit of a snooze.

After being turned into a couch meme at her very first Met Gala the year prior (more on that in a second), Kardashian chose to play it super safe for the 2014 theme, "Charles James: Beyond Fashion." 

Kardashian worked with designer Alber Elbaz to create the custom Lanvin gown, which featured a black satin belt and a thigh-high slit. 

The gown was undoubtedly pretty and would've looked great for a movie premiere or awards show, but it was nothing special for a night that encourages celebrities to embrace the theme and push the envelope.

Kardashian's ensemble was actually supposed to look completely different. She revealed that the gown was originally made of "this amazing leather with metallic detailing," and they only decided to redo it in blue satin at the last minute.  

Kardashian still planned to pair her new gown with a chunky belt and leather cuffs, but ditched them before walking the red carpet because she decided they were "a bit too rock 'n' roll," according to E!.

Still a Met Gala novice, it was clear Kardashian didn't want to rock the boat too much on the carpet. But we wish we could've seen the far edgier look she had envisioned for herself in 2014.

Kardashian's 2016 Met Gala gown was a lot flashier, but it still didn't push the envelope.

Kardashian wore a metallic silver Balmain gown with a thigh-high slit for the "Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology" theme in 2016. 

We loved the fabric of the silver dress, and Kardashian took a bit of a risk with her beauty by bleaching her eyebrows, but the look still didn't stand out among a sea of similar metallic looks. 

Kardashian was also overshadowed by her date, then-husband Kanye West. The rapper made headlines that year for daring to wear denim to the Met Gala. 

When looking back on her Met Gala looks in 2019, Kardashian revealed that she had been feeling insecure because she hadn't "lost all of my baby weight" after giving birth to her son Saint in December 2015 — which is likely why she stuck to her usual silhouette.
