For Kim Kardashian, it’s pleather weather.
The shapewear mogul stripped down to her Skims for a sexy shoot released on Monday, dubbed the brand’s “most provocative” swim campaign yet in a press release.
Shot by frequent collaborator Steven Klein, the steamy series sees the reality star posing in pieces from the Faux Leather and Rubberized Scuba Swim collections — both of which are slated to hit the site on Tuesday.
In true Kardashian form, the star paired her Patent Faux Leather Sim Micro Triangle Top ($48) and Micro Tanga Bottom ($46) with a pair of long matching gloves — plus thigh-high heels, to boot.
In other images, she reclined atop her fellow Skims models in the Rubberized Scuba Swim Scoop Neck ($59) — a spandex style she later zipped off for a topless shot.
It’s far from the first time Klein’s been behind the camera for a memorable Kardashian moment; he’s worked with the famous family on multiple occasions over the years, including for the Skims founder’s famed Jackie Kennedy-inspired 2017 Interview magazine shoot with daughter North West.
“As a photographer I am inspired in collaborating with icons,” the photographer said in a press release, later adding that, “Icons are symbols, the alphabet of desire. Kim speaks this language.
Skims itself is no stranger to partnering with icons, as previous campaigns have featured everyone from supermodels like Brooke Shields to Olympic athletes and musicians including SZA and Ice Spice.
The leather-like styles are far from Skims’ only swim release this year, as the brand’s bathing suit section currently includes everything from classic silhouettes to the new Sporty Swim collection.
Kardashian herself has served as a model for many of the drops, from posing with alien figures in a spring break-themed shoot to hitting the beach in a neoprene thong.
Now, it seems she’s putting the spotlight on some (literally) shiny new pieces.
