I’ve got big boobs – I tried Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS swimwear and one item left me with an X-rated problem
BIG-breasted women struggle to track down the perfect – and most flattering – swimwear for curvy figures.
But one beachgoer was especially deflated during an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction while donning a Skims bathing suit.
US-based Taylor Loren shared her excitement on TikTok upon receiving her Kim Kardashian “Skims swim haul” in the post.
However that keenness was short-lived as she ended up giving the TV star a lecture on the importance of support for bigger boobs.
She told viewers: “I just got a giant Skims swimming haul, but the question is, will it fit my giant tits?
“For reference, I’m a 34J, and I’m wearing a 4X, in the Skims bra, so hopefully this (swimwear) works too.”
After putting on the triangle top in a 4X, she told the camera that it was not big enough, while protecting her modesty by wrapping her upper half with a lengthy sheet of paper.
Taylor added: “I cannot show it to you because you can see that it does not fit at all. It basically just covers my nipples.”
Next up was the hot pink Skims swim tank bikini top, size 3X, paired with 3X mid-waist bikini bottoms, which Taylor described as “fine”.
Turning around to the camera, she added: “The bottoms look cute from the back.” Having dismissed the 4X bikini top as “too big” she reported that the smaller size was a better fit.

But she was doubtful about how much support it would provide for her big boobs, as the bikinis are cut low, and the straps “are not adjustable”.
“If there were more adjustable straps, I might be more into it. But this is a pass for me,” she added.
She also “really wanted to like” the 3X swim sarong, “but I just can’t make it work”.
Pointing to her stomach, Taylor said: “This fabric is just kind of clinging to things I don’t want it to cling to.
Her “last chance for Skims swimwear” was a one-piece in 4X.
She said of the brown, zip-fronted sleeveless swimsuit: “Yes! This cut is very flattering and it cinches your waits, I’m very into it.”
However, after unzipping the front towards her naval, she added: “One thing you need to know is it’s very low support.
‘MODEST OPTION’
“The zipper is the only thing holding you up. So you need to make sure you’re buying a size which is tight enough here (pointing to her waist).
“And then if you’re around your family you can like zip it up if you needed a more modest option.
“I’m 6ft 1 so it is pulling a little bit here (pointing to her upper chest), I think it’s just because I’m so tall.
“Honestly I can’t decide if I want to keep it or not, like it looks cute (but) is it practical? I don’t know.”
Taylor said that she instead had “high hopes for shaping swimwear” after just placing an alternative order.
One viewer thanked her for posting the honest feedback, writing: “I can never find reviews for big-chested girls!! How do you like the bra? Supportive enough?”
According to Kardashian, Skims is the “next-gen shapewear, underwear and loungewear”.
