Kim Kardashian West goes au naturel & solo for her cover/editorial with VOGUE AUSTRALIA // shot by Gilles Bensimon & styled by Fashion Director, Christine Centenera.
Kim K — always known for her glam — looks stunning on the beaches of Australia wearing neutral, yet chic pieces.
This is definitely a switch from the #BreakTheInternet with Paper Magazine & her cover alongside husband Kanye West. Kim instagrammed a shot with the caption: “I truly am so honored to have worked with one of style icons, fashion director @Centenera for this cover for @VogueAustralia and shoot in one of my favorite places in the world, Australia! Thank you Gilles Bensimon for these gorgeous pics! Can’t wait to see the rest out Monday!”
Love the ‘Baywatch-babe’ inspired shot.
The reality star // social media phenomenon spoke with VOGUE about her relationship, daughter North, & more.
On being in the public eye vs privacy: “I like sharing my world with people. Although I wish there could be just maybe a little bit more privacy just for our daughter. But it is what it is. She is going to grow up to be a strong girl. I love my life. I feel like I’m in a really good place right now.”
Adding, “We’ll be at a party, and it might seem like the best party, and we’re whispering to each other: ‘Let’s just go home’, because we want some alone time.”
On Kanye: “He always has been such a good support throughout my life. I think we met 10 years ago and at different points we connected and got closer. We were always communicating, even if we were on different paths in our lives. We could always fill each other in on what was going on and always support each other. I think that created a good foundation for our relationship.”
On family life & North West: “We are absolute best friends; we know every last thing about each other. We know our goals are to make each other’s lives really happy, and I think we know how to do that. We have good communication, and I think that’s so important in a relationship, and we have so much fun together. We laugh together. We’re obsessed with our family. We love our daughter so much.”
North West is one of the cutest babies out there — so of course we’re wondering when the next Kimye spawn will be arriving lol. Kim tol The Daily Mail, “It’s been more challenging to get pregnant the second time around. When you’re not planning it, it happens. It’s just how God works. And when you want it so bad, it’s not happening.”
Vogue’s editor-in-chief Edwina McCann spoke highly of Mrs. West. McCann describes her as “the defining element of fame in this era,”adding, “People think they can just abuse her and think she doesn’t have feelings. Yes, she’s famous for being famous but that’s the society we’ve created. She understands that’s the price of fame and she gets on with it.”
“Kim Kardashian is one of the most searched people on Google, with as many Instagram followers (23 million and counting) as there are Australians. She is polarising. She is regularly the victim of cyber bullying. She is a serious fashion fan. She is also awfully nice.”
