The Best and Worst of Kim Kardashian's Maternity Style
Kim Kardashian is a new mom! Her baby came five weeks early, which robbed us of lots of maternity style outfits—though Kim is probably pretty psyched about that.

The girl just loves fashion and experimenting (as does her baby daddy, Kanye West), so maybe she saw this time as a style challenge. She tried all kinds of things over the course of her pregnancy, and we've gotta give her props for not being in leggings for nine straight months. Look back at her mama style!
What would you wear during your pregnancy? Would you try to maintain your personal style, or just give it up to maxi dresses on the regular? Did you like it that Kim pushed the boundaries of maternity fashion? Tell us in the comments below or tweet us @OKMagazine.
1. Gray and Embellished
This was the exact moment that people started freaking out that she refused to dress for maternity. We say, oooh, pretty jewels on top!
2. White Tux Couture
This edgy suit would be impossible to pull off, baby or not. Kanye probably picked this one out.
3. Camel Leather Mini
Who says pregos can't wear hot leather dresses? Not Kim K.
4. Her Sweet Spot
She found it at the MTV Movie Awards—drapey and black.
5. Bold Color Choices
The Kardashians are not known for being shy. It's cool that Kim never stopped wearing eye-popping colors!
6. Roomy Dresses
Toward the end of her pregnancy, Kim let her bump breathe in loose dresses (but only occasionally).
7. Stretchy, Casual Cotton Dress
You could ALMOST imagine such a normal dress on the average pregnant woman in, say, Ohio.
8. Dramatic Black Lace
Kim is awesome at picking pieces that make you look twice at their intricate, delicate details.
9. Graphic Black and White
This very well may be the enduring image of her pregnancy. She rocked architectural dresses right through morning sickness.
10. Poufy Pink
An image of Kim wearing this baby-doll dress was printed on the front page of the New York Post along with the headline "What the Frock?" Way harsh, Tai.
11. Red Hot in Lace
She looked mega chic in a red shift with matching lipstick and ladylike hair.
12. The Super Hero of Maternity Fashion
Is this a cape? That is awesome.
13. Rocking a Tux
A hundred bucks says she looked cooler than all the dudes at this event. Gotta love the gender-bending, especially when you have a very notable sign of female-ness hanging off your torso.
14. High-Waisted Skirt
Want OK! each day? Sign up here!
Kim wore higher skirts during pregnancy, which actually made her waist look small somehow? Fashion magic.
15. Coral Jumpsuit
Here's hoping this look is what she wore behind closed doors for the whole pregnancy. It seems very comfy!
16. All Floral Everything
Obviously she attended the Met Gala a month before giving birth, and obviously she went wearing a floral glove contraption. Applause!
17. Pretty in Peplum
Peplum skirts can be tricky for... anyone with hips, but Kim shows how it's done, and she's freakin' pregnant!
18. A Whole Lot of Stuff
Illusion netting, feathers, leather leggings—any one of these items would be over the top, but of course Kim feels no fashion fear.
19. So Polished!
She looks somewhat like an old Italian lady in mourning, but it's still very pretty.
20. Kim in Pants
Please note this photo: it's pretty much the only time Kim was in pants for the last nine months.
21. Major Heels Till the End
Kim refused to give up on her beloved high shoes.
22. Pregnancy Announcement Ensemble
Imagine the whole world just found out you're knocked up. Do you wear something demure, or insanely hot? You know which way Kim went.
23. Sheer and Shoeless
Pants can be your friend, Kim! Just not this large.
24. Black Leather Skirt
When in doubt, go with black and white. The Kardashian family motto.
25. Roomy Maxi Dress
In her defense, she did try the loose maxi dress thing, and it so wasn't her thing.
26. Nice Shoes!
Those white, winged numbers? They are Giuseppe Zanotti, and were designed by her man Kanye West.
27. Black Satin
How many black maternity dresses does Kim have in her closet now? We're happy to take them off her hands...
