It wouldn’t hold up to a brisk morning swim.
But Kim Kardashian’s knit ʙικιɴι was the perfect option for a posing session, highlighting her shapely rear as she snapped pictures of the Mexican sunset.
Seemingly cut from a similar material to the Cosy Knit range of her shapewear brand Skims, the two-piece featured a halterneck tie at the neck, and high-cut cheek flaunting rear.
If Kim were to launch her own swimwear range, a seemingly natural next step for the fashion-minded businesswoman, she wouldn’t need to shell out on models – with her famous curves the perfect vehicle for advertising her wares.
The reality star was pictured as she relaxed on the beach in Cabo, where she is staying at the luxury Esperanza H๏τel and Resort, which offers an ocean front villa for around $7,000 a night.
For her trip she wore her hair off her face in a long braid, and kept her eyes protected with a tiny pair of stylish sunglᴀsses.
The outfit is sure to join the ranks of Kim’s ‘archived’ clothing, after the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star admitted she keeps every single outfit she wears.
The 39-year-old star attaches a picture of when she wore it with each item.
When one fan tweeted, ‘One important question that needs answers is, do you keep any of these coats in your archive @KimKardashian? They’re all gold!’, Kim replied: ‘I have every single coat and each one of these outfits all archived with the pH๏τo attached to each look! Don’t worry!’
Meanwhile, Kim previously revealed she has a ‘temperature controlled’ storage facility for every outfit she has worn that is linked to an app on her phone.
She said: ‘All of my old clothes go into a storage facility that’s temperature controlled, and I have different sections, like one for all my Met Gala dresses. Each thing is in a garment bag with a pH๏τo of me at the event.
‘I try to keep the shoes with the look as often as possible, especially in my wedding section. I have my wedding shoes and my dress on one rack. Then there’s my Hervé Leger section from back in the day – maybe not the looks with the shoes, but I have all the dresses.
‘Pretty much everything I’ve worn to an event is there.’
However, Kim keeps her iconic gold Versace gown, which she wore to the 2018 Met Gala, in her own personal wardrobe because she ‘loves seeing it’.
She added: ‘When I did the ad campaign for Balmain, Olivier Rousteing gave me one of everything, so I have a whole Balmain section. Sometimes I’ll take a mix of things that I love to see in my closet – even last year’s Versace dress that I wore to the Met I’ll keep in my closet because I love seeing it.
‘Depending on what’s in, like, say, neon, I’ll pull everything like that from the storage and put in my closet. If it’s starting to fade, then I’ll put it all in storage.’
