I wore this sleek, turquoise "super hero" dress by Mara Hoffman during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel.

The geometric shapes in the outfit reflect a trend I want to tell you about...

Designers and stylists are dressing their models and actresses in powerful and structured shapes right now.

My latest Trend Spotting column on Celebuzz explains the new style and how you can add a little structure to your wardrobe without breaking the bank.

Make sure to also check out my photo gallery that showcases all of these sharp new shapes!

Our men love that.

Keep up the great work

Kim where did you get that black layered necklace thay you were wearing in the episode when you were at Dash and your mom asked you to be in Playboy? I love it!

Hi Kim!

You are such a great inspiration with fashion! I saw you on Jimmy Kimmel, and just fell in love with this dress!! So my question is, is this dress possible for purchase for people like me? If so, where can i find it?! Thank you for taking the time to read this!

xoxo

SuCh A CuTe DrEsS

**sexy girl** - There is no secret. Kim obviously has a hair stylist that does her hair, all of them do. You should take a picture of Kim's hairstyle that you like to your hair stylist and them to style it.

hey kim! do you think you can post a hair tutorial on how to get sexy curly/wavy hairstyle??? i have long hair too and it never comes out like yours. whats your secret???? love to know!

thanks in advance kim!

Hey Kim! Can you post more of your closet?? I'd love to see more of not only your collection or clothes/shoes/bags but also just your organization. I'm super-organized like that, too! Sorry if other people have asked you for this already...I refuse to read your comments section anymore cuz some people are just so ridiculous. But anyways, just wanted to let you know that I love coming to your site with all the updates. Thanks so much for posting the Tyra video; I missed the show and couldn't find it online! I love your style recently...you couldn't have picked a better style icon than Jennifer Lopez. And last but not least, you converted me from mineral makeup to Make Up For Ever HD and I couldn't be happier!! xoxo and be blessed :)

You guys are right-- I *am* a terrible dancer. It's also terrible when I try to think, speak, or dress myself. They take it out in editing, but I actually have maids to cut up my food and tie my shoes because I am so incredibly stupid. I didn't have my butt augmented to be sexier-- I did that so I could find it without GPS tracking!

I really am the tackiest piece of talentless trash to ever pretend she didn't slink out of the Valley on the money her daddy made helping murderers go free.

Hey, is that a camera? Quick, someone take a leak on my head!!!

Love,

KIM

Kim,I am a really BIG fan of yours and I want to know if I would be able to meet you one day.I check your websites for recent pics,news mack up tips and everything else.I hope you have time to e-mail me back in your busy schedule.Also where did you get those green shoes you had on with that lime green dress.

really i love kim

Kim Kuminmyasshian is a worthless spunkbucket who could do nothing better for the world than drink a gallon of Drano.

After she finishes drinking her gallon of wannabe rapper urine to wash down her Valtrex, of course.

paris - i dont really care who you think i might be. i agree that if i were that famous and rich, i'd probably do a lot more not only for our country but other countries as well. but she does post blogs about her support for AIDs and breast cancer and what not. u have to give her credit for that and not come on here just to bash her.

i agree with Aida Bakar. she's not superwoman. she's done more than i ever have so why bash her. why not just simply ask her instead of come in here and act like she's the dumbest celeb out there.

again, totally with Aida, stay positive!

HEY KIM,

HOW U DOING AFTER DWTS? I LOVE THAT DRESS ON U, IT DIFFERENT WITH THE TWO POCKETS ON THE SIDE. I ALSO LOVE THAT COLOR IT MATCH UR SKIN TONE. KIIMMY U ALWAYS LOOK FAB OKAY. LOVE U KIMMY

LOVE ALWAYS,
YOLANDA

XOXO

beauty + no brains = dumba**

reggie probably rides you like a donkey

I love the color of that dress!

Hey "Paris" and people - yeah I agree that Kim should have done more charity work. But she is only one person and not GOD. She can only do so much. At least, there are some elements of charity in her show rather than none at all (the New Orleans family & the homeless guy called Shorty). Even if it is for publicity stunt - it is still a good thing as it helped the unfortunate family and the homeless guy a lot. It's because of her fame that she managed to pull things off. I am sure there will be more charity work done in future, be it for the KUWTK show or on her own. Stay positive people!

Don't you ever look bad? jeezo...

:-)
Ignore the comments from the haters...jealousy is an ugly thing. I've never heard or seen you behave any other way then sweet. Stay that way...

HEY KIM,
VERY NICE DRESS, I LOVE THE COLOR.
I DON'T HAVE THE CURVES THAT YOU DO, IF I DID I WOULD LOVE TO WEAR THIS DRESS. NOT EVERY "BODY" CAN WEAR A DRESS LIKE THIS. IF YOU GOT THE BODY AND THE BOOBS, GIRL SHOW IT UP !!!!

friday: thanks for the feedback

I see your point as well....

Hey Kim! I so love this look on you! Nice dress and it suits your figure very well!

Hey Shu, lighten up will ya! I think Kim’s sense in fashion looks more fun, adventurous and exciting. Being fashionable does not mean that you have to follow what others are wearing in order to get a certain style (modern, retro etc). It’s more fun to mix rather than to stick religiously to its concept (be it having shiny or matte colored fabric). Fashion is very subjective. To me, Kim looks original and trendy in that dress. I can hardly see heavy make up on her. She is neither wearing red hot lipstick nor metallic blue eye shadow! Plus, her cleavage does not ruin anything at all. It actually enhances the geometric look via the ‘V’ shaped neckline. There is nothing wrong with having curves and great assets and to be able to flaunt it in any ways and any styles. I know I would!;-)

You look amazing in this dress!!!!!!!!!!!

The hair the make-up...everything is just perfect!

Kim I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Kim,
You always look amazing!
I love you! You are the best!

Kim, You should make a clothing line that
average girls can afford. I love everything in DASH but i could never afford any of that stuff.

Wow that dress is sooo nice, it looks great on you, your so lucky!

lol if i was Kim I would be worried about some of the psychos that leave crazy messages here, some seem like stalkers who would kidnap kim because they are so obsessed (especially the males). Kim you need security for real.

Hi Kim,

You are looking so hot on this pic. You didn't wrote me back about my first email. I'm not joking so it is up to you. If you don't want to know more about what was happen... It is not a big deal! Im just thinking that you need to know! Have a good week end. The wather is very warm down here in French Riviera! ;)
Martin

HI KIM,

UR LOOKING SEXY,IM CRAZY ABOUT U.....
HAY I LOVE U DOLLY..PLZ HUG ME PLZZZZ,
I WANT TO DIE IN UR ARMS.

just curious on what your gonna do with your Vote for Kim shirts? Are they going on sale now??

I know your breasts are real but in this pic they look fake. Did you use body tape?

Kim,
You look Fab in that dress. Your curves are in all the right spots. I wanted to tell you that you did GREAT on dancing with the stars. I was so excited for you. It takes a lot for someone to go out in front of millions. I live in Charlotte NC and wanted to know if your going to Reggie's game on 10/19? I have Suite tix and would love to meet you if your going. Let me know!

Well Kim likes the glamour, overly done, sexy look...so it is no surprise that she would like this dress.. i personally think that the breast being exposed killed the dress but whatever...

KOURTNEY definitely has GREAT style...

shu - I think this look suits her better to some of the other dresses she has worn before. On TMZ they showed her a few time wearing horrible dresses that were way too tight and they called her a "stuffed sausage", however if she had just worn a larger dress size the dresses wouldn't have looked all that bad. Kim tends to keep to the same style so i think this dress gives her a diff look and i like it more than what she usually wears. I find it odd how everyone seems to think that Kim is the fashionista when really to me it seems that Kourtney has the best style and wears the cutest stuff, just my opinion.

Even though I am sure it is tempting for you to want to wear modern runway fashions, your classic look works better for you as a whole. Your height and personal hair and makeup style and body shape limit you to some fashion!!!

What you have done is a more country version of the geometric style entirely!!!

Now, your mom???
She can carry the geometric look PERFECTLY!!!!!

I concur, Paris. I mean she only helped ONE family and all she did was furnish a trailer--they could have done so much more esp. since it was a FAMILY effort along with REGGIE aka "hubby". Personally, I think it was a publicity stunt and it was ALL staged. What else has she done since then besides two or three "lectures" about drinking? In which she brought Reggie with her-I'm sure she knew it wouldn't have any substance if it just involved her. Her father succumbed to cancer--and yet I haven't really seen or heard of her doing anything this month for "Breast Cancer Awareness". And if she did I'm sure I would have been aware of it since she seems to only do 'Charity work' for publicity! She should realize that to be blessed she needs to start blessing others. And not by issuing "fashion advice" that she probably steals from other "trendy" magazines.

About this geometric look.......I have seen it on Beyonce,Victoria B,JLo, to name a few.

Their dresses have a heavier and crispier fabric; also the colors I have seen are matte not shiny.

I think it looks better that way than this way. The designer you are wearing isn't very upscale and your cleavage ruins its modern edge.

You try to wear different styles but yet keep the same old hairstyle with the long extentions and heavy makeup.

I didn't see the view segment but from what folks are saying i'm just wondering why kim ASSUMED that her fans would vote for her eventhough she was a bad dancer. Does she think her fans are idiots and don't understand the condept of a "dance competition"? She has probably spent her whole life blaming others for everything. That said, i love that dress but I don't know why so many people give kim props like she made that dress or something. She has a stylist who TELLS her what to wear. Oh and to the person who asked about hair remover, kim said she gets lazer hair removal (over her whole body), kind of crazy lol but hey im sure most of us would do that if we had the money ! Love the color of your dress though kim.

Hi Kim,

OMGosh Kim!! I love that dress!! Very Sexy!!

~T~

okay "christine" (sounds more like kim or khloe making up email addresses as kim stated on JK) but anyway...new orleans sounded more like a publicity stunt ( i mean reggie was there anyway for his charity org)..and btw if you think that is the only issue at hand in our country, then i believe ignorancy lies at the other end...its great what she did at new orleans, but imagine if she used her entire potential to change the world..just like her father, who put 100% into everything, and not just 5% like kim

hey kim love your dress and you

Hey Kim,
How are you? I think your absolutely gorgeous and I feel you handle yourself very well with the media. I do have a quick question for you I know you are a stylist and I have a dilemma. I'm in a wedding in 2 months and my dress is short so the shoes are IMPORTANT! But I'm not sure what color to wear. The dress is light blue with dark blue pieces at the top, sash, and underskirt. I was thinking dark blue pumps with a bow on the back but I can't find any. What color do you think would compliment the dress the most? Dark blue, light blue, silver?? I just dont know please help me if you get a chance I trust your opinion. Thank You so much

SWEETIE, I LOVE YOUR STYLE. VICTORIA B IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES TOO.

HAVE A BLESSED WEEK!

WITH LOV ARIES

hey kim. thanks for giving us styling tips and options that won't break the bank.

Stylist = worthless rich kid too stupid for a real education and too stupid for a real job decides to co-opt other people's looks and sell them to even stupider, lazier celebrities

DAMN!!! SO SEXY KIM!!!

im luvin the Mara Hoffman dress, I can find myself wearing a dress like that, i must simply say that your style rocks.

Hey Kim. So, you often talk about personal beauty tips that are helpful. One thing that hasn't been discussed is your opinion on hair removal. It's something I struggle with. With all the photo shoots, I'm sure your a pro at whatever way you use. What method do you find the most effective?
Thanks
Lar

KIM LET US KNOW THOSE CHANDELIER EARRINGS YOU WORE AT THE BARLTES N JAMES BBQ. YOU LOOKED ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!. I LUV MARA HOFFMAN.. TOO BAD THAT DRESS IS SOLD OUT!!!

okay "Paris" do you not watch keeping up with the kardashians? Kim and her sisters visited New Orleans in their time of need and helped those unfortunate get some furniture and real things back in their lives. if you weren't so blind and ignorant and quick to judge, you would have known that. do a little research next time before you come in here.

and Kim, that dress is gorgeous. love the color. sorry about dwts and may your father RIP.

That dress looked perfect on your body and I love the rich jewel tone color. But I am more interested in where you are finding all those fabulous scarves you have been sporting lately. They add SO much personality to clothes I think :) Please fill us in! =D

dont u know that there is more in this life than sex, fame, money... i mean honestly, people you know that have passed away, like your father, are in their graves by themselves, without money or fame or materialism...so why don't you try to use the money u were blessed with for something positive so that when God asks you what difference you made in this world..at least you can give Him a proper answer..b/c your simple reply will be "rayj, playboy,..."


ps. your life after this is not determined by what what you wear or what you have, but ur actions...so do something good so that you can make your father proud...


pps. please don't take these comments personally, its simply an opinion to a person who has the potential to change things and make a difference for the youth and destitute of this world...

THANKS So much for the fashion advice- I was in desperate need of some kimmy style advice. love it tara

LOL SORRY FOR THE TYPO KIM! I MEANT TO COMMENT I LOVE THE COLOR OF THE DRESS YOU ARE WEARING ITS A COLOR THAT LOOKS GOOD ON BLONDS, RED HEADS, BRUNETTES, LIGHT SKIN OR DARK SKIN.

STAY SOOO SWEET!!!

FASHIONABLY YOURS

ANDRIE

^^Tabby^^ - Kim is 5'2 and I seriously doubt she wears a size 10 shoe. I'm not sure why you would think someone that short would have feet that large.

Kim,

Love the dress. I live in NYC and I've been seeing a lot of these geometric-shaped dresses everywhere. One of my favorite stores is A/X, especially their jackets and I also love Intermix. As always, you look amazing! On a side note, on your casual days out or around the house, what do you like to wear?

hey kim, even though u can't dance. i can't either. dont let these people who cant say anything good about u hurt u. everyone isnt gonna like you. just because you are you. stay strong and keep your head up

y isnt my comment posted?

yea face it U SUCK @ dancing get over it!!! it wasn't your fans fault its yours 4 not knowing how to dance so u dont have anyone to blame, but YOURSELF LOSER...stick 2 what u do best making tapes haha

I love this dress, where did u get it & how much was it? I WANT ONE for Vegas baby!!!!!

What kind of bra do you wear with a dress like that-particularly if you are curvy?

It's weird how Kim would say that because there were tons of comments on here from her fans stating that they voted for her time after time. I don't think she was blaming her fans for being voted off though. It seems like Kim's under the misconception that her fan base wasn't watching DWTS, therefore votes from her camp wasn't coming in as much as she thought it would. I would say she's not reading her comments, but that jean video trumps that theory. But still, i think it's a pretty lame excuse for her to use as to why she got voted off.

Typos are normal, but hating isn't. Go get help asshole.

You look cute Kimmy.
The dress is HOTTT!
I love the fact that it have pockets.


WTF is with these losers keep posting foolishness about the view. If you're no longer a fan, CARRY ON. BYEEE!
Don't let the door hit you on your way out bitches. Actins speak louder than words.

Good Day Kim,
Waiting on Tyra part 2 :-)

^^anonymous 3:25pm^^ Do you think people are going to stop coming onto this site because of what was said on The View? Of course they won't, her webstie will site have tons of traffic.
I'm not sure if you realize that you are wasting your time posting your ridiculous rant.

Where is my comment? It was here a second ago b/c I read it. deleted it b/c can't handle the truth...huh!

I said " you threw your fans under the bus on the view... you biotch!!"

BTW- the video clip is on you tube.
type in "the view Kim kar....." (how ever you spell her last name)
Shocking???
