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?

She shouldn’t have kids. She is too in love with herself.

Kate needs to take some lessons from Kate Middleton on HOW TO DRESS as Kate is the most beautiful elegant lady in the world…….since Kim has been dating her babydaddy she now looks unkept/sloppy all the time so has gone downhill alittle. She’ll come out of those skin tight clingy clothes when that baby bump/pregnancy really pops out……and please no nude pictures of her baby bump!!!!!

I’m also pregnant and due around the same time in the summer as Kim. I think Kim has a beautiful body and the fact that she embraces her curves is wonderful. HOWEVER, the clothes she’s been wearing lately are not at all flattering to her new figure. I too have an hour glass figure, though I’m sure I’m curvier than Kim, and my boobs don’t dictate what I wear. I’m able to wear flowy tops and long dresses and still able to accentuate my waist at the same time. Her logic doesn’t make sense. She should just be honest and admit that she has to dress in skimpy clothes because that’s how she stays “relevant” in the media and makes her money.

Didn’t think it was possible for her I.Q. to get any lower!

Noelle – LMAO

Amber – who are we to say? FANS! She opens herself up to public scrutiny and criticism with her show and her openness. If we aren’t to comment, then she shouldn’t conduct interviews and put herself out there.

I am sorry but she dosent look pregnant but heavy.

She needs to embrace being pregnant. Although we really shouldnt be jusging her, when you out yourself and your family in the spotlight youre asking to be judged. She needs to remember that being a mom should come first ans then herself and how she looks. Theres also a way to look sexy without super tight clothes and everything popping out. It is sad that our society seems to think otherwise.

I’m not a fan of hers by ANY means, but if I could chose to have a figure like anyone, it would be hers. She really is beautiful.
