In this exclusive interview, Kim talks about growing up with Kourtney, working with Bruce Weber, and her idea of true happiness
What
happens when you pair a reality-TV siren with one of the most highly
regarded photographers in the world? Here’s a behind-the-scenes glimpse:
On set at Bruce Weber’s
beachfront home in low-key Golden Beach, Florida, newly pregnant Kim
Kardashian transformed into the exotic Tahitian princess Weber had
envisaged, moving from his guest house to his garden and backyard beach
(with paparazzi silently lurking, of course). Just as the sun began to
set on the Atlantic, the photographer’s shaded gunite pool served as the
backdrop for the final shot—an image that ultimately became one of our
two spring covers.
Later in the evening, Kardashian sat down with
entrepreneur and former Warhol darling Cornelia Guest—who, like
Kardashian, knows a thing or two about living in the cultural spotlight.
For their on-camera interview, the two headed to C. Madeleine’s,
a 10,000-square-foot vintage showroom on Biscayne Boulevard in North
Miami Beach. From ’30s-era furs to exotic-skin bags and everything
couture in between, C. Madeleine’s is a bona fide fashion wonderland—and
it also happens to be one of Weber’s favorite hunting grounds for
unique pieces to use on set. (Guest was so taken by the store that she
ended up falling in love with—and taking home—a sharp Thierry Mugler
suit.) During their chat, Kardashian opened up about the experience of
working with Weber for the first time. “I’ve been such a huge fan of his
work for so long,” she said. “It was just such a dream come true.”
