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’m sorry, I have an hourglass shape as well, however that doesn’t mean you have to wear the tightest clothes possible! Form fitting, yes. Skin tight? Absolutely not! She’s such an idiot. Figure flattering doesn’t mean tight enough to cut off circulation.

She will be wanting to break out the muu-muu’s in another few weeks when her rear gets to be the size of a Buick and her legs look like tree trunks.

I disagree with her. She was photographed a few days ago with a maternity top on and she looked much better.

Oh, she’s going to be such a FABULOUS mother — always choosing fashion over her child’s welfare. I see her out in those gigantic heels of hers — reminds me of that time Britney Spears feel off of her cha-cha heels and nearly dropped her baby head-first onto the pavement. Sorry, but the best thing that could happen to this Kardashian–West kid is a miscarriage or a crib death. These two people do NOT deserve to be parents, they are way too selfish and conceited.

I’m so sick of this women….why does she get so much face time. She’s noboby…stop giving her so much credibility by publishing anything about her. She’s pregnant – so what.

Kims mom helped her make all that money, and all she is a reality star, i bet shes not pregnant, because she dont want anyone to see her baby bump, plus she is not to going to show her baby on tv, she said that. Think they made up story line to get people to watch, just like her mariage to kris, all a sham and i hope he exposes them the whole family, and bruce jenner is so ruled by kris his wife, honestly, bruce looks like a woman, kim wear pregnancy clothes, loose cloths just get over it already

This is the dumbest article Ive ever read! hahahaha!!! Seriously! Was is supposed to be funny?

Who ever taught her that wearing clothes three sizes to small was a good look for her- must secretly hate her. She pretty (at least on the outside) but she does NOT know how to dress!!

And she seems overly concerned about looking mega sexy while being pregnant. Yes you can look sexy and beautiful while pregnant but stuffing yourself into tight leather pants two sizes to small is NOT the way to do it!

Oh, Kim, for your baby’s sake … please … get over yourself.

Say what you want, but Kim is the one making millions off of her body! She must be doing something right. RIGHT???
