'Why are slip dresses and corset tops needed for a child's clothing line?'

Kim Kardashian West is facing backlash from fans after giving them a sneak peek at some items from her children's clothing range.

Kim, who worked on the line for American store The Kids Supply with musician husband Kanye, took to the social media platform to share a preview of some new clothing options, including what appeared to be a leopard print slip dress.

Many of the reality star's followers were shocked at the designs, and began sharing screenshots from her story to their own accounts to demonstrate why they felt the pieces were inappropriate.
