Kim Kardashian-West posted a sneak peek of her look in Vogue Brasil on Instagram today. The reality star channeled 60’s sex symbol, Marilyn Monroe, complete with her then-platinum blonde ‘do.
One cover photo shows a sultry Kim wearing a long-sleeve turtleneck crop reminiscent of the one Monroe donned in 1953. The other cover photo, a bit more sensual, shows Kim in black leather elbow-length gloves atop a leopard blanket, cleavage exposed.
Designer Ricardo Tisci has referred to Kim as a “the Marilyn Monroe of our age;” Tisci’s statement isn’t far off.
Kim’s popularity and drop-dead gorgeous features are the talk of all the tabloids; it’s not too risky to name Mrs. Kardashian-West a modern-day Marilyn.
