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?

Huh, ah ok, don’t get it but ok!

Spandex doesn’t look good on anyone, KK included….

I’m not a kardashian fan, but being pregnant doesn’t mean you have to wear mumus! Pregnant women should embrace their curves & wear what makes them feel comfortable…whether it be loose or tight.

Part of the average pregnancy is that you gain weight everywhere-face, legs, breasts, and especially your stomach. She’s making excuses to get media attention, like she’s been doing for the past two years. Saying she can’t wear things because of her hourglass figure WHILE in the second trimester of her pregnancy is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. I hope maturity kicks in for her before she delivers her child. She’s a beautiful girl and she’ll be a great mother but what she lacks recognition of is that some things are more important than tabloids.

Uh excuse me but when did a woman’s body become public property? how she chooses to dress, is exactly that:how SHE chooses to dress. Why this is an article topic is beyond me. SHe shouldn’t have even explained why she was dessing this way. None of our business to begin with.

“I, I, I, me, me me, I, I, I”
Yes, she’s the first curvy woman to ever be pregnant. Correction: she’s the first curvy woman in history to care about how she looks. Everyone else in history just looked dowdy and frumpy while pregnant. She’s the only pretty one.
What an EGO!! She’s a waste of a human being. I feel sorry for her kid b/c she’s going to use that baby for self-serving purposes.

Participateing in the miracle of life and she still sounds like an idiot! Some people shouldn’t procreate!

This girl is so out of touch with reality, its terrifying that she is going to be a parent. She HAS to wear super tight close?? Is she insane?? I had hopes she would put her child and its well-being ahead of herselff, but clearly that CAN’T happen.. she HAS to maintain her own self-induced, self OVER inflated and completely out of touch image of herself… she is so self involved its frightening for her offspring.
