‘Thickity Thick’: Cynthia Bailey Wears Figure-Hugging Leather Dress

Cynthia Bailey was feeling herself while wearing a figure-hugging black leather dress.

The reality star from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” shared several photos of herself in a curve-accentuating dress — on Dec. 15, 16 and 17 .

Bailey, 53, first had someone take a picture of her taking a selfie in the black leather dress, black tights and black boots while she was all glammed up for hair and makeup. 

“‘trying to wrap up 2020 strong!’ 💪🏽,” she captioned the photo.

In another photo, the supermodel stood up and looked over her shoulder, bringing attention to her backside. 

“‘blackity-black & thickity thick’🖤,” Bailey wrote.

She captioned the photo of her front view, “waist not, want not.”

Finally, the “RHOA” star posted a selfie captioned, “‘if it don’t bring me peace, i don’t want it.’👑.”

“Come on BAWDY!” Janet Mock commented on one of the photos.

One fan commented, “Y u tryna trap kats?”

“Standing on solid ground 🔥 HER BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤,” a fan praised Bailey.

The 53-year-old “RHOA” star revealed the location of her pictures as her Lake Bailey property.

At that property, Bailey revealed in September, she was able to focus on losing the weight she gained during quarantine ahead of her October wedding to Mike Hill.

“When I returned back to Lake Bailey by myself, I was able to kind of manage my food a little bit better — because I didn’t have my family with me and honestly some days I didn’t even eat as much as before,” she told HollywoodLife. “It just wasn’t an issue when I came home, because I was just eating for myself, so I was able to control what was in the refrigerator,” she said, adding, “I was able to control my snacking and all of that kind of stuff.”

She added, “I just started slimming down. It was pretty awesome! I didn’t realize how good I actually looked until I put on a two-piece. I was like, ‘Wait a minute! I actually look OK!’

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
