Kim Kardashian in Balmain at the VMAs: unflattering, tacky or cute?

Don’t yell at me, but when I was looking through these photos of Kim Kardashian with her Jenner sisters, all I could think about was “Sad hookers are sad.” I know that’s mean and anti-feminist. I apologize. But they do look sad! Sad and tacky. Kim, Kylie and Kendall came to last night’s VMAs because…? I’m still not sure. It’s not like Kanye West was there, although he was up for one award, Best Hip Hop, which went to Drake. (Who wasn’t there either.) Kim apparently came just to present Sam Smith’s performance. Maybe they’re friends? Why would Sam Smith be friends with Kim though? No, seriously? And Kim seemed freshly Botox’d too.

Anyway, Kim wore this completely ridiculous Balmain dress. This dress was meant for someone built like Kendall Jenner, someone tall with long legs, someone who is a size zero with little to no bust. I guess Balmain made it in a size 4 (!!!) for Kim though and she shimmied into it somehow. This is always the problem with Kim – she thinks she can and should wear major designers without even considering the fact that just because it’s a designer piece, doesn’t mean that it will be flattering on her figure. This makes her look shorter and heavier than she is in reality. And what could have been some sexy California bedhead-style hair ends up looking matted and not all that cute with this bad Balmain.

I can’t find the designer IDs on the Jenner sisters. I don’t mind Kylie’s look – it reminded me of Lorde’s look, honestly. And Kendall is SO slim.

Also: during the impromptu moment of silence for Ferguson and Mike Brown, the camera panned to Kim, Kylie and Kendall. They were texting. Because of course they were.
