The collection is receiving mixed reviews, and while some people like it more than Kylie Swim, others are questioning why she feels the need to continue creating swimwear.

“I think the internet is still traumatized by Kylie Swim,” one person recalled.
“So did you have any leftover Kylie swim gear or what?” one commenter asked.
Several people pointed out that the swimsuits were only flattering on people with the Kardashians’ physiques, with one writing: “This looks so cheap and flat on normal bodies (like mine).”
Many people wondered how this would be different from the failed swim line, with one wondering, “I don’t understand how this would be different from Kylie Swim since she hasn’t addressed it yet… different manufacturer? different materials?”

Jessica then tried on the corset tankini, which she had a hard time fitting into and said she thought they used Kylie’s waist as a model and even needed someone to help her put it on.
The swimsuit designer summed it up by saying, “You failed again, Kylie.”
YouTube creator Mia Maples, 25, weighed in by sharing a nearly 20-minute video Honest review Kylie’s swimwear, telling her 4.4 million subscribers: ‘Kylie Jenner has decided to dive back into swimwear after the incredible flop that was Kylie Swim.’
Mia, who lives outside Edmonton, Canada, previously reviewed Khy’s other three collections.
“They’re not really that innovative,” Mia said, calling the swimsuits “pretty basic” and explaining that most of the items haven’t sold out.
Mia noted that the new swimsuits were lined, had better seams, and had a larger gusset, but she preferred tops with a layer of padding and looked for bandeaus that weren’t too tight.
She praised the “buttery soft” material, but said the top slid up because she didn’t have “big boobs.”
Mia said she could actually see herself wearing these swimsuits, unlike Kylie Swim, who she previously criticized and saved for comparison.

Stella said she was glad she went up a size and compared it to Kylie Swim, which didn’t carry plus sizes but still featured plus-size models on the website.
“I don’t want to be too picky,” she said, before showing off the fraying of the corset, though she ultimately thought it looked fine, despite the microskirt showing off her backside.
Stella and Jessica weren’t the only two women who had problems with the swim corset.
On TikTok, Leah Rodriguez She shared a video and wrote: “I should have known,” showing a video of her already frayed corset.
