Kim Kardashian is on the October 2009 issue of Australia’s Kurv Magazine posing as the ever so famous child toy, Barbie.
She Tweeted about the experience earlier this month, writing: “I’m shooting a Barbie themed photo shoot today with famed photographer Tony Duran! These looks are crazy!”
According to photographer Tony Duran,
“The idea behind the shoot was to capture the different characters of Barbie—western Barbie, Safari Barbie, etc. But I wanted the shoot to look like a timeless fashion shoot as opposed to a caricature -so for the most part we kept the clothing all in blacks and deep greys-very monochromatic. Kim’s hourglass figure was the basis of the story and different interpretations of her blonde hair showcased the character. We tended to go extreme with the hair to give it a bit of a push editorially, but keeping the classic side of the shoot shining through. We went with vintage pieces to authentically represent each character fashion wise…”
I really don’t understand how Kim emulated Barbie. There is no pink, the iconic trademark colour, and really not so much of a Barbie feel to the pictures. She looks more like Aubrey O’Day than Barbie.What do you think?
