Style before comfort! Kim Kardashian squeezes her growing bump into unforgiving leather skirt and ripped top
There's nothing straightforward about dressing while pregnant.
Indeed the unique challenges of a constantly changing body shape mean clothes can flatter one day and not fit the next.
Perhaps that is what happened to Kim Kardashian, whose tight outfit looked a shade on the small side as she stepped out on Sunday.

Style before comfort! Kim Kardashian squeezes her growing bump into unforgiving leather skirt and ripped top as she heads out in New York on Saturday
Not a perfect fit: Kim's tight outfit looked a shade on the small side as she stepped out on Sunday
While the outfit was typical of Kim's Kanye-influenced style, it did not look as well fitted as some of her other recent choices.
The mother-to-be wore a wrap around black leather skirt, over an artfully torn beige T-shirt.
A black coat was draped over her shoulders so as not to hide her outfit - a favourite pose of Kim's - while over the knee boots provided some coverage on her legs.

Copy Kim's style in these Gianvito Rossi boots
She's married to rapper Kanye West, but little did we know that Kim Kardashian was a fan of heavy metal. The reality star went for a rock-chic look while out in NYC when we wore a ripped t-shirt and leather mini skirt.
Kim finished off her outfit with a long coat, dark shades and a pair of Gianvito Rossi boots. The suede thigh high stunners featured a pointy toe and stiletto heel. It wasn't exactly maternity wear, but then again the pregnant fashionista doesn't exactly play by the rules when it comes to style.
These over-the-knee boots would make a great addition to any Fall wardrobe teamed with a pair of stovepipe jeans and a cozy sweater or a mini skirt like Kim's. Click right to pick up a pair at Barney's for just under $2000.

Kim is in New York for the city's fashion week, and so has even more eyes assessing her clothing choices than usual.
And while the reality star may wish she could slob around in a pair of husband Kanye West's oversized pants, she certainly isn't letting her standards slip.
The 34-year-old has worn a series of daringly on-trend outfits, including a sheer lace one to Givenchy's show on Saturday with her husband.

Kanye certainly looked appreciative, as the couple posed together.
Hinting at a collaboration between the rapper and the French haute couture fashion house, Kim wrote earlier: 'TONIGHT- GIVENCHY X YEEZY'
The partnership isn't a huge surprise as Kanye is well-known to have a friendly relationship with Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci.
Page Six revealed on Thursday that the Gold Digger hit maker plans to hold another NYFW show next week to preview his second Yeezy collection.
