Every gown seems to fit Kim Kardashian to perfection.

But the 35-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star explained on her site kimkardashianwest.com on Friday that getting the fit just right is not as easy as one would think.

When the E! queen went to the Rome opera in May, she had to struggle to get her stunning white Vivienne Westwood number to look its best.

The trouble it takes to look tempting: Kim Kardashian revealed on Friday it was work getting this Vivienne Westwood number to fit just right

In an entry titled 'FITTING FRIDAY: My Vivienne Westwood Opera Gown,' the reality wonder took her readers through the steps.

'For such a legendary night, I wanted to a simple yet elegant look, so I went to the Vivienne Westwood couture house in London for the perfect gown,' the mother-of-two began.

'The dress I picked was a little difficult in the fitting and we needed a few people to get it just right,' disclosed the sister of Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie.

The finished look: The 35-year-old E! star wore the dress to the opera in Rome in May with Kanye West

'When Kanye and I landed in Rome, we only had 10 minutes to change for the opera!!!'

That must mean that she got her hair and makeup done on the plane.

Kim added she was shocked that she could get it all together fast enough to make the red carpet.

Rushed: 'When Kanye and I landed in Rome, we only had 10 minutes to change for the opera!!! I'm shocked we were able to figure it out and zip it up!' she added

But alls well that ends well. Kardashian said it turned out 'beautifully.'

'We all know I love a good corset, lol,' she finished.

It was also noted that Kim wore Lorraine Schwartz earrings that were gifted to her by husband Kanye for her birthday.

She also had on vintage Vivienne Westwood platform heels.

In the photo Kim shared to her site, she has two women standing behind her as they sew up the back. Kanye is to her left making sure the fit is done properly. Racks of clothes, a mirror and a crystal chandelier can be seen as well.

This entry comes after Kim was seen in a sexy black tank top and black jeans cut into long shorts with a green bomber jacket and heels while in New York City.

If you're a fan of the sports luxe trend then one of the most important pieces to have in your wardrobe is a bomber jacket.

This casual piece of outerwear is an essential for nailing the look and while there are plenty of embroidered versions and pastel shades around, classic khaki is really the only way to go in our opinion. Check out Kim Kardashian for the perfect example of this military inspired hue.

Her jacket is by Vetements and the oversized, boxy silhouette is going to be huge next season. We also love that cropped cut and contrasting hood.

Too bad Kim's topper costs more than a month's rent for most people! It's available at Stylebop if you've got the cash to splash (click right).
