Kim Kardashian is belligerently refusing to wear maternity gear, even as her pregnancy develops.
But the reality TV star, 32, is making a rod for her own (no doubt aching back) by forcing herself into designer dresses that haven't been created with the pregnant body in mind.
She certainly seemed to be keen to show her blooming figure off in all its glory as she went from the Good Morning America studios to Live! With Kelly and MIchael in New York last Tuesday in this Lanvin number, but this picture of Zoe Saldana proves how it's supposed to look.

her fans: The reality TV star stopped to sign autographs as she arrived
at the ABC studios last week in the designer dress
KIm wore the dress as one of two outfits in just a matter of hours, including a mini-skirt and lacy top and later a voluminous pink dress.
The stiff fabric of her latest confection accentuated her buxom figure and helped create an hourglass shape.
Despite succumbing to flats a few times recently, she managed to strut around in her favourite killer nude Christian Louboutin heels.
She even used her sister Kourtney as a comparison, stating that her elder sibling had gained more weight in her pregnancy with Penelope at the same near five month mark.
'I've gained 20lbs. At this stage Kourtney had gained 30,' she explained.
'I will probably will gain those 60 pounds, just give me a couple more months.'
She added that so far she has not succumbed to junk food cravings and has so far been indulging in healthy treats.
'I want to have those cravings, like cheeseburgers, but I haven't. Now I eat healthy I don't know what's going on,' she said.
Kim revealed that she had recently gone baby clothes shopping for the first time, but made sure to not give the sex of her baby away when Kristen and Michael asked whether she had purchased pink or blue items.
'I bought a lot of black and white,' she said with a coy smile.
