The 40-year-old star has rocked some amazing looks over the years, from her jaw-dropping 2017 Gucci suit to her 40th birthday lime green bikini.
Kim’s 2017 Mexico vacation has re-sparked interest as many have recalled an unedited paparazzi photo of the celebrity while wading in the water.
The mom of four looked outstanding in the low cut bikini bottoms and underwire top, which were covered in the brand’s signature logo and accented with red, yellow and green stripes.
The reality star paired the look with gold necklaces and hoop earrings, and added colorful sunglasses for flavor.

Fans were quick to notice that Kim’s normally edited figure was more natural in the paparazzi photos, as a bit of cellulite was present on her hips and rear end.
Another iconic bikini moment was the jaw-dropping vintage Chanel NSFW swimsuit, worn by the TV personality in October of 2018.
The barely-there kini covers just the nipples and features a classic black theme with white logos.
The micro-piece was first modeled by Stella Tenant in the late Karl Lagerfeld’s 1996 Chanel runway show.

Kim’s raunchy look is available for rent to those residing in LA, but for 72 hours only.
For Halloween 2019 the mom of four pulled out all the stops with a stunning bright green glittery bikini matched with a platinum blonde wig as she channeled Elle Woods.
The famous model’s figure looked flawless as she embodied one of her favorite characters, and that same year she followed in her footsteps by pursuing her own law degree.
More recently, Kim manifested Elle yet again as she studied poolside in a tan swimsuit.

Bathing suits are not only for poolside adventures in the world of Kim, but also for fitness activities.

Kim’s 40th birthday was a cause for huge celebration, as she and her siblings jet-setted off to a remote location for a Covid-safe party.
The E! star donned several eye-catching bikinis for the getaway, including neon green and pink matching looks.
The KKW Beauty founder added long braids to complete the package as she enjoyed the Tahiti waves.
Despite Kim’s looming divorce, she’s recently faced some career successes as her wealth has reached an all-time high.

Gucci marks 100 years with exhibit on Michele code-breaking
FLORENCE, Italy (AP) — Alessandro Michele has radically shifted Gucci codes and challenged fashion norms in his 6½ years as creative director of the brand founded by Guccio Gucci as a travel bag company in Florence 100 years ago.
To mark the centenary, Michele has curated an exhibition in the Gucci Garden gallery, on Florence’s Piazza della Signoria, that underlines some watershed moments in his era. Those include an advertising campaign for perfume featuring a transgender model, an all-Black cast for the pre-Fall 2017 campaign and a lipstick campaign featuring everyday faces in all their imperfections.
The exhibition will be reproduced in seven cities, including Shanghai, Tokyo, Sydney and Seoul.
The 48-year-old designer credited CEO Marco Bizzarri, who tapped an unknown Michele from the Gucci design team to take over as creative director in January 2015, with allowing him leeway to go beyond the usual schemes driving the luxury business model.
“No one would have wanted, we can say it, a transexual in the world of beauty,” Michele told reporters Thursday in Florence.
He said the campaign, featuring Hari Nef, Petra Collins and Dakota Johnson walking through a field of wildflowers, proved conventional fashion world wisdom wrong by creating “an absolutely up-to-date female imagery.”
“If fashion and the fashion market want to continue to have a stage, there needs to be some sort of movement. That campaign, in a very gentle and very poetic way, gave space and voice to a world of very different femininity,” Michele said.
Likewise, Michele said the casting of only Black models in the 2017 campaign was at the time a breakthrough, noting that “things have changed in a dizzying and very fast way in the last year.”
The pandemic year has been a year of collaborations, including with North Face, and Ken Scott and Doraemon. A tie-up with Balenciaga will reach stores later this year. Gucci revenues rose 20% to 2.16 million euros in the first quarter of 2021 compared with the same period last year, Women’s Wear Daily reported.

Michele’s eclectic style, which has gone a long way toward mainstreaming genderless codes, especially for men, has created a sort of tribal following. Dubbed the Gucci Gang, Michele has fully embraced the power of that very distinct crowd during his pandemic year collections, which have been unveiled as digital presentations.
Those collections include this year’s “Aria” that ends with the runway cast converging dreamily in a garden, to “Ouverture” last November, with videos by Gus Van Sant featuring an Italian actress moving through a rarified Roman landscape with her Gucci tribe.
Michele said the brand’s real-life fans defy easy description, ranging in age “from 10 to 90.”
“It has happened that someone who could be my mother’s age greets me, or that Marina Cicogna (an 86-year-old film producer) tells me, ‘When I go in the store, I find crazy things,’" Michele said.
“It is strange because (we) also manage to dress someone who is 13 years old. Not only: Yesterday a young person stopped me who had a tattoo that said “Blind For Love,” and it was not the first,” Michele said, referring to one of the popular slogans that have adorned his creations.
“Evidently it was a strong detonation of something that already existed,” Michele said of his collections. “Fashion has the great capacity to interpret and to collect what is happening now …. to narrate the exact moment.”
Nicki Minaj, Drake & Lil Wayne – Seeing Green Lyrics
Let me take this Balenciaga mask off to ask y’all, “Who asked y’all?”
Don’t put no K after that B-Boy, “bad kall,” that’s flag talk
That cash blue, but I’m still seein' green
My bitch a vacuum
I told her, “Keep me clean,” the scene serene
I just need a queen that ain’t scared to fuck a Stephen King
My lil' ho out Atlanta, got a ho out Atlanta
With a ho out Atlanta, she a ho out Atlanta
We get it, it’s the same in each city
And ever since the pandemic
They don’t wanna let Drake out of Canada
I been screamin', “Free Drizzy”
I put you six feet deep, I’m bein' socially distant
Nina Ross on the hip, the .44 is my mistress
Extra shots, extra clips, ain’t talkin' videos nor vixens
