Kim Kardashian - as wide as she is tall!

I don't get the Kardashian thing; I think she looks a mess this outfit is particularly dreadful. Makes her look massive. And it needs ironed. Why is she an icon?!!?

I have no idea.

The arse implants are just ludicrous.

WipsGlitter · 25/10/2014 17:54

The amount of make up her sister has on as well. She's pretty and doesn't need it.

I think she's a hideous, vacuous and talentless famewhore.

But I also think she's stunning and would swap bodies (and faces) with her in a heartbeat.

It's a conundrum Grin

Shlurpbop · 25/10/2014 17:56

The ankle strap looks terrible with that dress length too :(

ChillingGrinBloodLover · 25/10/2014 17:57

I don't think she looks 'a mess' in that dress, but I don't like it. There's cleavage and there's 'that' look, which I think looks anything but sexy.

She is not as 'wide as she is tall' - not by a long shot, she's just not rake thin.

Pretty nasty thread to start.

Because she's very, very sexy as far as a lot of people are concerned? Not everyone prefers stick thin.

Speaking as someone with quite a lot going on in the arse and boob department (in fact my figures is not too far from Kim's albeit with a few more cake-related pounds in the tummy area) I'm enjoying seeing a woman like this on the front covers of magazines. Plus her face is beautiful.

2cats2many · 25/10/2014 18:02

That dress is AWFUL. Side boob, front boob, up boob , down boob, PUT YOUR BOOBS AWAY!!

OttiliaVonBCup · 25/10/2014 18:03

I find the boob display cringeworthy.
She always trussed up.

WipsGlitter · 25/10/2014 18:05

I'm a chubster. I meant the dress is cut in such a way that it's making her look bigger/wider - the wide to narrow plunge, the rucheing, the draping, the splayed boobs. All create horizontal lines.

She's not "as wide as she is tall". So what if she was? I judge her for being vacuous, for sale and keeping company with morally reprehensible people - not her weight.

NewEraNewMindset · 25/10/2014 18:06

She can look absolutely stunning. 95% of the time she looks a state. I have no idea why but I think her husband may now be involved with her styling.

Stokey · 25/10/2014 18:06

As wide as she is tall is mean as well as inaccurate. I think it's good to see a curvaceous woman instead of ironing board models. And while the dress isn't exactly flattering, at least her boobs are her own!

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 25/10/2014 18:07

She is NOT massive! Jeez, we're not all meant to be sticks.

santamarianovella · 25/10/2014 18:08

I think she is only an icon in the daily mail, don't find her body or her face to be beautiful, her sister Kendall is the pretty one,

WipsGlitter · 25/10/2014 18:08

What do you mean "for sale" hermione?

^^ What Bianca said

Ujjayi · 25/10/2014 18:10

It looks like she has the dress on back to front. It just looks ridiculous. But I agree that she is not as wide as she is tall. Criticise her dress sense/tenuous claim to celebrity but knocking her figure does not sit well with me. Besides, if sleb gossip is to be believed she gets quite enough criticism from her DH.

HermioneWeasley · 25/10/2014 18:11

She'll endorse anything, no matter how questionable, for the right price and sells her life for cash.

weeklyshopping · 25/10/2014 18:11

Ruching works v well on the fuller-figured woman IMO. I mean for hourglass types where there's a lot of in-and-out going on. I've got some ruched skirts and they work way better on me than pencil skirts, despite pencil skirts pulling me in a bit more.

If you've got it, flaunt it (although to be fair Kim is obviously taking this to extremes)

& describing some women's figures as "ironing boards" is not ok either, tbh.

wips The dress makes her look hourglassed (the 'most desirable' female shape -unless you are female, then you think women should be straight up and down.....) A wide to narrow plunge doesn't usually make you look bigger/wider in general either, it usually has a slimming effect on the bust separating it to avoid a bulky look

Fcukfifa · 25/10/2014 18:13

I think she is beautiful and has an amazing figure. Wish she didn't let Kanye dictate what she wears though.

MarshaBrady · 25/10/2014 18:14

Her figure is very good, not stick thin, but I bet she's smaller in rl than the pics too.

But the boobs aren't great with that dress, and I don't get the bum implants.
