Kim Kardashian’s polka dot bikini throwback is so on trend for SS25
Kim Kardashian is no stranger to a controversial fashion moment or two. Some of her Met Gala looks instantly spring to mind, like her 2021 outfit which consisted of a head-to-toe Balenciaga t-shirt that even covered her face. And while we're not saying we'd wear her naked dresses or teeny tiny fur bikinis, there's no denying she's always had style. Specifically, a unique style signature that has become instantly recognisable as Kim's.
It turns out, this extends all the way back to her teenage years. Taking to Instagram, Kim treated her social media followers to a bikini pic. Hardly a rarity from the 44-year-old reality TV star and SKIMS founder, but this bikini pic happened to be a throwback from 1994! Yep, 31 whole years ago.
In the retro polaroid snap, Kim can be seen wearing a red polka dot string triangle bikini top and coordinating high-leg bikini brief bottoms.
Staring down the lens of the camera, she is photographed leaning against metal railings with palm trees visible in the background behind her, suggesting the moment was captured while on a family holiday. You've likely already done the maths, but Kim shared the post on her Instagram stories confirming she was 13 years old when it was taken. She's hardly changed a bit in the years since!
We've no doubt her two-piece was the most stylish thing around at the time, but polka dots in every colourway are actually a big spring summer 2025 fashion trend, too. One of the easiest ways to get in on the look is through your swimwear, so why not recreate Kimmy's style?
