Kendall Jenner called out by fashion fans as they unearth snap of Winona Ryder in SAME Met Gala dress after the model claimed to be ‘first human’ to wear it

Kendall Jenner has come under fire from online fashionistas over her claim that she was the ‘first human’ to wear her 1999 Givenchy by Alexander McQueen gown Met Gala gown.

Kardashian naysayers were then quick to point out that actress Winona Ryder had worn the dress in a 1999 pictorial for Flaunt magazine. 

‘What a scam, turns out Kendall Jenner is not the first person to wear this Givenchy by McQueen gown!’ raged one fashion fan on X. 

‘Not sure why Kendall said she’s the first person to wear it, she may not have known it was worn before unless Winona’s version isn’t the original,’ wrote another.

The supermodel donned the vintage garment at Monday’s Met Gala and boasted about being the first person to ever wear it during a red carpet interview with Vogue.

‘This is Givenchy, it’s archival McQueen from 1999,’ she explained to La La Anthony.

‘I am so, so incredibly honored to wear it. I’m the first human to wear it. It showed on a mannequin,’ she continued.

‘It was a miracle that it fit, it was a miracle that we found it and it just feels meant to be and I’m so happy.’

While some fans online suggested that Jenner may be wearing a replica of the original dress, the model seemed to imply that it was the original frock.

‘The chances that they had it available was really slim and the chances that it fit me were also pretty slim, and I couldn’t do any tailoring, I couldn’t do anything, and it just fit perfectly,’ she gushed.

However, one fan suggested that it may have been Winona who wore a replica, not Jenner. 

‘If Winona’s is a custom replica that’s insane because the amount of beading and work it would have taken,’ they wrote. 

‘Not sure why Kendall said she’s the first person to wear it, she may not have known it was worn before unless Winona’s version isn’t the original,’ one fan posted online; seen in 2001

At 5’11, Jenner is much taller than the pint-sized Winona, who comes in at just 5’3

Givenchy released an official statement, asserting that the dress had only ever been presented on a bust in the past

Givenchy has backed Jenner’s comments up, releasing an official statement declaring that the reality star is indeed the first person to wear the archival garment.

‘Look 14 HC FW99 was not worn in the past, and was only presented on a bust form,’ the luxury fashion house said.

‘Since then, the dress has been preserved in the Givenchy Archives until the MET Gala. It has never presented before, and it will go back to the Givenchy Archives.’

They added, ‘500 hours were required to hand-embroider the dress, with more than 100,000 beads and sequins.’
