Kim Kardashian & Chrissy Teigen Respond To Backlash Over Skims Maternity Shapewear

Kim Kardashian's maternity shapewear is causing controversy! The reality star faced backlash after announcing her latest Skims collection promising the "best comfort and support for your changing body during and after pregnancy." While many expectant moms praised Kim's new line of undergarments, others questioned the fashion mogul for promoting compression shorts and smoothing materials for pregnant women. The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star directly responded to the criticism, posting, "SKIMS maternity line is not to slim but to support. The belly part doesn't slim your belly, it's actually sheer and a thinner layered material compared to the rest of the garment. It provides support to help with the uncomfortable weight being carried in your stomach which affects your lower back — and the compression on the leggings helps with pain relief caused by swelling."
