I’m a size 18 and tried on Khloe and Kim Kardashian’s Good American and Skims swimsuits – the results were surprising
THE KARDASHIAN family have loads of businesses between them, but Kim’s Skims brand and Khloe’s Good American seem to take the prize when it comes to clothing. Both of the brands also have a swimwear collection that caters to a wide range of sizes, but do they really work? Plus-sized fashionista McKayla recently bought two

Plus-sized fashionista McKayla recently bought two bikinis from both brands to see which came out on top.
Skims was up first and things didn’t look very promising, the metallic silver triangle bikini was so small, “I am not hopeful,” McKayla joked.
Once she tried the itsy bitsy bikini on, “It’s hanging on for dear life,” the fashion whizz said as she held her boobs to stop them from falling out of the material, or lack of.
Straight away, it was clear the Good American silver bikini had loads more coverage, which was perfect for curvy girls like McKayla.

She said: “I like the quality in Good American better than the Skims, it just has better give in it.”
However the good material wasn’t enough to completely save the beachy look, the low-rise bikini bottoms weren’t to the fashion lover’s taste and the top offered almost no support.
Next she tried on two bandeau styles from both brands to compare.
The gold Skims bandeau bikini top alone set McKayla back £48 and looked worryingly small when she unpackaged it, she even thought she might’ve ordered the wrong size at first.

Holding up the glitzy bandeau to her bust she joked: “Kimberly, what is that going to cover?”
She said: “I actually kind of like this one, I just wish there was a little bit more up top.
“It’s kind of like a princess Leia moment,” she added as she showed off the back of the bikini bottoms.
The Good American bandeau style seemed like it would be a better fit, “the bottoms have more coverage both in the front and the back,” she showed.
The sparkly pink look was slightly more expensive than Skims at £59 but worked great for the fashionista, however although the coverage was better than Skims in the bottoms, the string ties on the side didn’t work well.
McKayla said: “The bottoms are ok, I wish they had a high waisted version.”
Viewers of the clip agrees, one said: “Ugh low rise bottoms are the worse, I definitely like the gold on you best! It’s very cute.”
