Kim Kardashian is an undeniable pop culture icon. The 44-year-old beauty mogul and reality TV star is constantly acting as a style inspiration for not only her fans but also designers, fellow content creators and other celebrities. Whether she’s crushing it in a SKIMs brand campaign or lounging in swimwear poolside, she’s an in-demand fashionista who always has something new and exciting on the horizon.

The mom of four, who appeared on the cover of SI Swimsuit in 2022, is a force to be reckoned with in the world of fashion and influence, so it’s no wonder her various brands have been so successful. If you’re looking for inspiration as you do some much-needed shopping, we’d recommend taking notes from Kardashian—she’s totally changed the game.

In the name of sourcing some fashion inspo, we’re looking back at her best bikini moments over the last five years, from magazine spreads to brand campaigns and beyond.

Working with a fashion legend

While Kardashian absolutely looks incredible in a bikini, one of the most exciting projects she worked on recently saw her not only wearing two-pieces but designing them.

During the summer of 2025, the mogul announced an exciting collaboration between her brand SKIMS and fashion powerhouse Roberto Cavalli. The collection featured a mix of string bikinis and classic one-pieces as well as coverups, all crafted in signature Cavalli patterns and bold animal prints for a timeless, unforgettable range of poolside looks.

Roberto Cavalli x SKIMS

“I was looking back through old vacation pictures, and so many of the pieces I wore were Cavalli,” Kardashian told Vogue of her inspiration. “Skims can be really simple; it’s all about the fits and the materials and the way they make you feel, but when you go on vacation, sometimes you want something different. We were making our own prints, and I was just thinking, ‘You know what? There has to be some way to do a Skims Cavalli collab.’”

And sure enough, there was, with the mogul sending the brand a simple DM to gauge their interest in a potential crossover—and the rest was history.

Model, maker, mama

Still, in true Kardashian fashion, she couldn’t simply design the exclusive collection—she also had to rock it in the campaign photos. Sharing several stunning snapshots from the campaign on Instagram—many of which included both herself and her mother, Kris Jenner—the two channeled “exotic, electric, elevated” vibes.

Embracing her 40s

In the latest chapter of her life, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has chosen to prioritize self-love and happiness. “My 40s are about being Team Me,” the now-45-year-old told Vogue in 2022. “I’m going to eat well. I’m going to work out. I’m going to have more fun, spend more time with my kids, and the people who make me happy.”

And celebrating 40 also came with the opportunity to join the SI Swimsuit brand, which Kardashian called “crazy.”

“I mean, every girl has been obsessed with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit covers. They are iconic,” Kardashian said while on set for her SI Swimsuit cover shoot. “Every time I would see magazines like this, especially in the ‘90s when I was growing up, it was always these perfect, tall, thin women. And I just had never been that. I vividly remember Tyra Banks on the cover and women with curves. I remember just thinking that was so cool. But I still didn’t think that I—I thought that you had to be a professional model, a runway model.”

What’s next for Kardashian: upcoming projects and brand announcements

Despite an already incredible year filled with plenty of accomplishments, things aren’t slowing down for Kardashian as the months wrap up, with plenty of exciting new ventures on the horizon.

First, the multi-hyphenate has a starring role in the Hulu original series All’s Fair, for which she is also credited as an executive producer. Created by Ryan Murphy, the drama also stars several major Hollywood names, including (but not limited to): Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Glenn Close, Teyana Taylor and Sarah Paulson. Kardashian is also slated to co-produce and potentially star in a live-action film about the popular Bratz dolls franchise.

On the business side, SKIMS continues to drop new collections every month, ranging from shapewear to swimwear and everything in between. Most recently, the brand partnered with Nike for a NikeSKIMS collab, with a new drop coming in mid-November featuring styles inspired by winter sports.
