Kim Kardashian didn't receive the best feedback as she updated her Instagram with a slew of bikini looks while promoting her SKIMS brand last week. Posting sizzling snaps as she kicked off her gallery in snakeskin swimwear, the 43-year-old flaunted her jaw-dropping figure in items from her new SKIMS drop, but she wasn't met with much love in the comments. While Taylor Swift fans came for her in the wake of the 34-year-old's alleged Kim diss on new album The Tortured Poets Department, others called the star "irrelevant." A popular comment even saw one fan claim that Kim's swimwear pieces look "too small" and "painful." Kim has not addressed any of the comments.

Stripping Down To SKIMS Swimwear

Scroll for the photos. Flaunting a thigh gap as she sat on a floor and flashed her toned abs and legs, Kim went eye-popping in a cut-out, snakeskin monokini with a bandeau top. Thrilling fans with her curves as she opened her gallery with her hair damp and around her face, the mom of four angled herself to the side while lying down in her next snap, this time opting for a blurry studio finish as she turned up the heat.

Eventually switching to a red bikini top and keeping the snakeskin print for her bottoms, Kim showed just how tight she'll go, making sure to show off her figure at various angles and with close-ups before adding in a matching red bolero to dress up her two-piece. B"TS of my @nick_knight shoot for @skims," she wrote, also tagging her photographer.

While over 900,000 fans have left a like, the comments section is a totally different story. The bulk of the most-liked replies appear to be Swifties shading Kim after Tay-Tay's "thanK you aIMee" track. Others had an issue with what Kardashian was wearing. Over 1,700 fans agreed when a fan replied: "Their “bathing suits” always look tight, too small and painful."

Too Tight To Be 'Hygienic?'

The comment sparked a discussion as fans jumped in to discuss Kim's love of micro swimwear. "Especially the fabric that is pulled up in her private parts. Very unhygienic," one user said. "The average woman could NOT wear any of them!" another claimed. Kim made headlines recently as SKIMS accidentally revealed her swimwear size to be XS, although with that 2022 weight loss, it's of little surprise.

SKIMS Empire Sky-Rockets To $4 Billion

Also shading the Hulu star was a fan bitterly writing: "Everything she wears is skin tight or missing most the material. So desperate!" Kim is likely unfused by the SKIMS shade, though, as sales of her brand continue to soar. The SKIMS empire is now reported to be worth $4 billion. Kim is also CEO of her SKNN by Kim brand.
