Double Tap to Zoom

Kim Kardashian has made two things very clear: she is pro-work and more importantly, pro-latex.

The reality TV empress is doubling down on her love of the sticky, sweaty trend (which, by the way, was all over the Fall/Winter 2022 runways) and shimmying into the plasticky material on what appears to be a daily basis.

While Kardashian's efforts are commendable (you'll catch me squeezing into latex never), some of her squeaky 'fits have been more successful than others. A latex maxi dress? Win! Latex leggings with clear plastic booties? Sweaty.

Here, I invite you to take a trip down latex lane with a definitive ranking of Kimberly's rubber outfits, in order from best to worst.

Business Latex

This is what Kim meant when she told us to "get your fucking ass up and work." The SKIMS founder embodied Girlboss in an Avellano latex wrap top and matching trousers.

Revenge Latex

Kim pulled a real Princess Diana with this mid-divorce serve, a full-length latex dress (a custom creation by Syren Latex) paired with leather gloves and boots.

Mugler Latex

At the premiere of the Kardashians' new Hulu show, Kim donned a liquid-y latex gown by late legend Thierry Mugler. One word: snatched.

Ellen Latex

Kim and Ellen made quite an odd visual pairing, the former in another latex frock (this time, by Vex) and the latter in Ann Taylor basics.

"Undercover" Latex

Kim, we know it's you.

Miami Latex

At SKIMS' swimwear pop-up in Miami, Kim took a risk that didn't quite pay off. To reiterate: leggings are not pants; visible foot condensation isn't cute.

Balmain Latex

Arguably Kim's first major latex moment, the influencer's uniquely brown 'fit sparked comparisons to a rather unfortunate emoji.
