Kim Kardashian dazzled her Instagram followers this week in a strapless, purple, shimmering minidress that hugged her figure and flaunted her sculpted physique.
In her new photo collection post, the 43-year-old reality star’s renowned curves were on full display, leaving many in her comment section stunned. However, others expressed concern for her “shrinking” and “slimmer” frame, with some even claiming she looked “too skinny.”
The Kardashians star and style icon has yet to respond to these fan concerns, and it also isn’t the first time she’s sparked them regarding her weight and slimmer look.

Kim Kardashian’s Glimmering Purple Minidress Sparks Mixed Reactions From Fans
On January 17th, the mom of four shared a nine-part photo collection post in which she modeled an iridescent lilac minidress. The strapless item by Rick Owens featured a low-cut v-shaped neckline, a waist-emphasizing fit and thigh-skimming hemline. Kardashian captioned her upload: “purple reign” with violet heart emojis.
Her comment section was divided, as many praised the chic and flirty ensemble, and others shared their worries for Kardashian’s well-being. “So gorgeous” one wrote as someone else commented: “love that dress so much.” To complete her look, the Kardashians star added oversized black shades with purple lenses and she wore her signature long raven tresses in a long, slicked-back braid.
As for her makeup look, the SKIMS mogul went for black liner, voluminous lashes, radiant blush and a dusty rose pink pout. Many users headed to the comments to point out that she looked “skinner” in this garment. “Kim is becoming too skinny,” one wrote as another replied: “what happened to bbl kim.” Others accused the SKKN founder of taking Ozempic to shed more pounds while some also brought up that she’s been caught editing and filtering posts in the past.

Kardashian has been open about how her commitment to a healthy diet and fitness routine has had a transformative effect on her body. In the spring of 2022, she lost 16 pounds in just three weeks to fit into Marilyn Monroe‘s iconic dress for the 2022 Met Gala, but she made it clear that she achieved this weight loss in a “healthy” manner.
Despite countless online critics expressing concern that such rapid weight loss was toxic and unsafe, Kardashian emphasized that her goal was simply to fit into the dress, and that she “didn’t do anything unhealthy” when working towards it. In an interview on The Today Show last year, she said that she “cut out sugar, junk food and fried foods” from her diet. In the months after the Met Gala, she also told her followers several times that she committed herself to daily, strenuous 5 a.m. workouts to sustain her reduced physique.
