Why Kim Kardashian Wears Super-Tight Clothes — Even While Pregnant

If Kim Kardashian‘s second-skin wardrobe (still continuing into her second trimester) has you raising your eyebrows, you’re not alone. But the reality star wants you to know that she’s not just wearing super-tight clothes to look sexy, but because looser clothes don’t flatter her hourglass shape.

“I think because I have big boobs it could make me look heavier if I don’t, like, show off my waist or something,” Kardashian says in the new issue of Du Jour magazine. “So I just have kind of learned to dress one way only.”

The mom-to-be has learned over time that she can’t try new things, stylewise, the way her sisters can. “Khloé can wear flowy, pretty things because she’s really tall. Kourtney is, like, really little,” she says. “I’m just kind of in between, so it doesn’t really work.”

The magazine cover marks Kardashian’s first pregnancy photoshoot, though her baby bump is obscured throughout most of the beachy, “Tahitian goddess” shots by Bruce Weber. Click here to read Kardashian’s full Du Jour story, in which she also dishes on her divorce, privacy and her family. Tell us: Do you think Kardashian’s sexy maternity style is appropriate?

I wish her a healthy, happy baby BOY! Not another girl to be exploited. She does have a very pretty face, especially when they catch her without makeup, overly made up, eww! As for how she acts? Ummm, her mother should be held accountable for that.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, she does not live her life in a manner that I would call beauty. She is living a life of what I would call cheap. If she would have come out in a different fashion, maybe I would have had more respect for her. I have zero. She did a dirty video, became what she says famous and did what? Cries over it, then takes her clothes off somemore. The 72 day over kill on the marriage and now this with someone I don’t like is too much.

She looks best in clothes that cover her butt. Also, something a little looser. I don’t know why some people feel they need to wear clothes that are obviously just too small. Go up a size! If you want to be a size 4, wearing a size 4 that’s too tight doesn’t make you a size 4. Lose weight if you want to be a size 4. Geez…

There is nothing wrong with Kim K.’s SEXY maternity style! People just need to stop HATIN”!!

I guess she has to wear tight clothes to keep her gigantic “badonk gadonk” from draging on the floor. Agree with Guest that she could wear a belt with flowy dresses.

Time to realize you don’t have a “hourglass” figure when you are pregnant; she’s just a ditz!

I think she should dress however she feels most comfortable both when she is and and is not pregnant. Who’s to say what’s “appropriate” pregnancy style? It’s pure sexism, perpetuated by women against women.

LMS – Enough with the fake pregnancy comments already, that just sounds insane! Though Kimmie isn’t a rocket scientist, I doubt that she would lie and file a legal court document requesting that her divorce be expedited due to her concern for the well-being of her unborn child. You can tell that she’s gained weight and her boobs are bigger…she’s just not showing much yet and that doesn’t mean amything. Aside from bigger boobs, no one could tell that I was pregnant until I was 5 months along. Rest assured, she’ll start showing and then everyone will start talking about how much weight she gains. I wish her well and think she needs to stay out of the press for a while before she becomes Public Enemy # 1.
