Kim Kardashian-West Looks Stunning in Nude Artbook Shot

I admit, I tend to give the Kardashians a hard time. They’re just such soft targets most days, though. Whether it’s Kylie and Kendall Jenner putting their faces on old Tupac shirts, Kim spending hours talking about a hotel table online without actually looking at it, or Rob being the worst ex-boyfriend ever (a real feat considering their family money comes from defending OJ Simpson), we all kind of see the Kardashians as the butt of a joke, even if it is a big, sexy butt.

Today, I’m going to try something new and be nice to Kim Kardashian. She hasn’t really done anything stupid in a while and the back to back hurricanes hitting the US reminded me of when her husband, Kanye West, went on a telethon for Hurricane Katrina and said “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” something I sincerely and ironically respect him for.

Kim posted a picture to her Instagram that will be appearing in a forthcoming photo book by famous fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and damn is it gorgeous.

It’s not just that Kim has had two kids and still looks like that. And it’s not just that she’s nude; we’ve all seen Kim Kardashian nude a hundred times from every angle and her leaked sex tape is the most-watched adult video in history.

It’s just a really well-composed photo of a beautiful woman taken by two of the best photographers in the fashion game. The book, which will presumably include an uncensored version of the above photo, will be available September 7th, which is tomorrow. You would think they’d give a name so people would know what to ask for when they get to the store, but Mert and Marcus are famous for their photography, not their marketing prowess.
