Kim Kardashian and Kanye West turned up to the Met Gala 2016 in MATCHING blinged-up outfits, because they're Kimye and that's what they do.

Last night in New York, the couple walked the red carpet in complementary Balmain – Kim's silver dress featured a long thigh-split in the skirt, while Kanye's… is that a denim jacket picked out with crystals and paired with holey jeans? Oh, Kanye.

Speaking to E!, Kim revealed that toddler daughter North West really wanted to wear her outfit, telling her mum: "Mommy I need that dress."

"As soon as I get home it's all yours," Kim replied. "You can wear it to prom."

Wow.

Kim's been working hard to get her body back in shape after the birth of son Saint West in December 2015 – her Met prep involved a 2am spray-tan the night before, an eyebrow bleaching session and a quick workout in her gym, as she showed fans via Snapchat.

She and Kanye then went on to the Met after-party before heading back to their hotel, where Kim had ANOTHER eyebrow bleach to bring them back to their natural colour.

Meanwhile, baby sister Kylie showed up to her first Met Gala wearing a very similar silver Balmain gown, which she said was "worth" all the scratches it left on her legs.

Kylie took to Snapchat to give an insider view of the ball, but spent most of her time posing in the full-length mirrors and – weirdly – listening to Beyonce's Lemonade by herself.

Beyonce, meanwhile, turned up to the Met without husband Jay Z, prompting speculation their relationship is going through a trough at the moment.
