‘This is a crime’: Simone Biles torches Kylie Jenner’s Khy blazer as Olympic champion drowns in XXS disaster

Olympic champion Simone Biles has publicly criticized Kylie Jenner’s fashion brand Khy over sizing issues with their faux leather blazer. The 28-year-old gymnast shared her experience through Instagram Stories, showcasing how the garment completely overwhelmed her 4’8″ frame despite ordering the smallest available size.

According to Hindustan Times, the incident occurred when Biles attempted to wear the deep red blazer from Khy’s collection, which retails for $138. Despite selecting the XXS/S size option, the garment appeared significantly oversized on the seven-time Olympic medalist, leading to her public critique of the brand’s sizing system.

“Ms. Kylie Jenner, this is a crime!!!!!” Biles expressed in her Instagram Story, accompanying a mirror selfie that displayed the ill-fitting blazer. The Olympian further emphasized her point by following up with a comparison to a meme featuring model Gigi Hadid wearing an extremely oversized Vetements hoodie, stating, “This is me on the last slide, SICK.”

Khy’s pricing and size range raise questions about inclusive sizing

The blazer in question is available in three different colors: merlot, honey, and black, with five size ranges from XXS/S to 4X. According to the brand’s website, the piece is described as “a boxy, ultra-oversized blazer with a drop shoulder and flap pockets” made from “textured, structured, premium faux leather.”

Jenner’s fashion line, which launched in November 2023, has demonstrated significant commercial success, generating $1 million in sales within its first hour of operation. The brand’s outerwear collection prices range from $118 to $498, positioning it in the premium fashion market segment.

The Kardashian star has previously emphasized her deep involvement in the brand’s development process. In an interview with Vogue, Jenner stated her commitment to the brand, explaining her role in everything from original concept and design to fabric selection and fit meetings, serving as both creative director and marketing lead.

This incident highlights ongoing discussions about sizing standards in the fashion industry, particularly regarding the interpretation of “oversized” styling and its practical implications for consumers of different heights and body types. Biles’ experience specifically underscores the challenges faced by petite consumers when navigating contemporary fashion trends and sizing conventions.
