The billionaire has been dubbed an “icon” by her fans and famous friends after stripping off for her latest racy photo shoot.
Kim Kardashian was back in the Marilyn Monroe mindset for a new photo shoot which she posted to her Instagram on Wednesday.
The reality star, 43, set tongues wagging in a tiny animal-print bikini and Marilyn-worthy platinum ‘do but didn’t specify if the mostly black-and-white pics — which were styled by Soki Mak and lensed by Michael Bailey Gates — were for a specific magazine or brand partnership.

Clad in a spotted bandeau-style top, cheeky briefs and matching eye mask by iconic leather brand Zana Bayne, the mother-of-four showed off her famous curves for the camera.
Her hair was styled by Chris Appleton in a perfectly blown-out short crop reminiscent of Monroe’s, and Kardashian took the look even further with skinny eyebrows, thanks to makeup artist Kali Kennedy.
Friends and fans immediately clocked the connection to the iconic blonde, with model Winnie Harlow commenting, “So. you’re telling me this isn’t Marilyn Monroe?”
“Monroe Style elegance & sexy,” one person commented, while another declared her “such an icon.”
One popular comment declared that the shoot was giving “a Marilyn Monroe tigers 1960s era vibe,” referring to a photo shoot the late actress did while on set the set of the 1957 film The Prince and the Showgirl with a stuffed tiger toy.
It’s no surprise that Kardashian might be channelling Marilyn; who could forget her 2022 Met Gala dress plucked from the Some Like It Hot star’s closet?
Months after the Met, she even slipped back into Marilyn mode for a Dolce & Gabbana campaign, platinum waves and all.
