“Kim Kardashian: The Justice Project” will follow Kardashian West and "her personal mission to lobby for systematic change and advocate for the men and women who she and her legal experts believe have been unfairly sentenced."

"Now, as she pursues her own career in law, Kardashian is dedicating both personal resources and her public platform to the cause," the network announced.

As usual, people were talking about her Manfred Thierry Mugler dress. Kardashian West spoke to Vogue to explain how she fit into the radical look, especially the tiny waistline.

In fact, it took a team to get her into the corset for the dress. Kardashian West shows off how skinny the corset makes her waist, so that she can wear the one-of-a-kind gown.

"Anna, if I don't sit down for dinner, now you know why," she joked toward the host of the evening Anna Wintour. "I can only like half sit."

In a video clip, she also explains the "wet look" of the dress and how it's made out of silicone, which may be why it's hard to fit into. It is also a very similar look to the latest issue of Vogue, which featured her on the cover.
