Kardashian told Vogue that she went on an extreme diet for three weeks to fit into the dress.
"I would wear a sauna suit twice a day, run on the treadmill, completely cut out all sugar and all carbs, and just eat the cleanest veggies and protein. I didn't starve myself, but I was so strict," she said.
