Kim Kardashian Shows Off Her Curves For W Magazine

Filed under: Apparel, Celebrity Shopping, Cosmetics and Fragrance, Art, Celebrity Design

Kim Kardashian loves her body. She has never been one to shy away from showing it off. She always looks impeccably put together and beautiful, especially in her form fitting, body conscious, making men drool dresses. Given her past spread in both Playboy (which she says she regretted) and in Harper's Bazaar, it comes as no surprise that Ms. Kardashian would grace the cover of W's November Art issue in the buff.

Kardashian's revealing photos, where she is covered from her neck down in silver metallic body paint, have been available online for weeks now. And there's been a lot of buzz about it - some good and some bad. Needless to say, I think the photos are beautiful. The ability to photograph the human body in its purest form and capture its beauty while translating that into a captivating and artistic editorial spread is no small feat and editorial photographer Mark Seliger accomplishes this task well.

It looks like aging action hero Bruce Willis, 54, and his new supermodel wife Emma Heming, 32, are trying out to be the next Brad and Angelina. The pair just shot a sizzling cover feature for the new W magazine with a decidedly kinky S&M theme. (Click here for all the pix which fyi include a couple of rather risqué shots.) The couple, who got married married in the Turks and Caicos in March, are in amazing shape, which makes sense considering Heming is a lingerie model and they met at the Los Angeles gym of their trainer, Gunnar Peterson, in 2005. Photographed by Steven Klein, the saucy shoot is of course peppered with luxury clothing and accessories, including above a Dior leather jacket, Eres lingerie and half of a Giorgio Armani tuxedo. You can read the accompanying cover story here and learn about what went on behind the scenes at the shoot here.

Aging pop chameleon Madonna has reportedly moved into a lavish Palm Beach mansion (above) with her 22-year-old boytoy, Brazilian male model Jesus Luz. Madonna, 50, signed a $50,000 month-to-month lease on the 10,000-sq.-ft. house, located at he posh Palm Beach Polo and Country Club in Wellington, which is on the market for $6.5 million, the Palm Beach Post reports. The fully furnished five bedroom, seven bath mansion once belonged to BET network co-founder Sheila Johnson and is now owned by a Virginia-based private investor.

Madonna first spent two weeks in Palm Beach in January with her personal trainer and returned to hang out with polo superstar and Ralph Lauren model Nacho Figueras, who's helping her learn to play polo, the paper reports, noting she's considering buying the house. The Real Estalker adds that the back of the Spanish Colonial-style house faces the golf course and opens to a long covered terraced with gauzy curtains, a swimming pool, spa, pool pavilion and outdoor kitchen. Madonna and Jesus recently appeared in a remarkably racy photo shoot for W magazine.

Filed under: Apparel

This past summer we reported on a very sexy Christy Turlington shoot in W magazine wherein she posed as a "Greco-Roman warrior-goddess". For the magazine's brand new January issue, the stunning supermodel appears on the cover and in a multi-page spread inside showcasing spring fashions, shot by Mario Sorrenti. "With her perfect features and yoga honed body, Christy represents the unmatched standard in beauty," notes Models.com. "After all these years she still radiates high gloss perfection." It seems the Supermodel Revival continues apace.

Filed under: Apparel

Following early speculation about what exactly Commes des Garcons would come up with for its collaboration with H&M, a couple of photos have surfaced of the new line, which will hit stores for, oh, about 30 seconds in early November. The collection draws on designer Rei Kawakubo's trademark deconstructed jackets and cropped pants, mostly in black with the occasional polka dot. You can see for yourself in the September issue of W (on newsstands today).

Christy Turlington's Stunning W Magazine Shoot

While we're on the subject of the Supermodel Comeback - which we think will be in the news for a while yet - it's worth pointing out Christy Turlington's stunning new shoot in the August issue of W magazine, titled "Champion". The 39-year-old knockout, who as we mentioned has been re-signed as the face of German fashion house Escada, poses as a "Greco-Roman warrior-goddess" for photog Michael Thompson in old-school black-and-white. Talk about classical beauty - obviously all that yoga and being married to Ed Burns agrees with her.

This is certainly turning out to be a banner season for Kate Moss; it seems every time we turn around she pops up in another fall ad campaign. And we might add that despite all Kate's been through, she's looking more gorgeous than ever. We already told you about her Just Cavalli and David Yurman campaigns, and she re-upped with Donna Karan as well; the latest is for French fashion house Longchamp, for whom she has modeled several seasons running. The cinematic black-and-white ads were shot by photo duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott at the famed Café de Flore in Paris. Kate's co-star is French actor Gaspard Ulliel, who appeared in the last Hannibal Lecter film. Kate's been busy elsewhere as well. She recently posed topless in W magazine and is launching a new fragrance.

Brangelina's Retro Fantasy House for Sale

Filed under: Estates

While Brad and Angelina don't own (and to my knowledge never have) this beautiful 1957 Rancho Mirage property, it was the site of a memorable photo shoot featured in W magazine shortly after the pair got together. The glam, retro shoot had a perfect backdrop in the Kenaston Residence, which is a landmark residence designed by architect E. Stewart Williams. It has been completely restored, staying true to its mid-century modernist roots, with natural rock, wood and frosted glass. It has a large swimming pool, partially surrounded by the U-shaped house and lots of floor-to-ceiling windows. All the retro-chic furnishings, including Eames chairs and Nelson lamps, are included.

In terms of details, the house is 5,000-sq. ft. with 4 bedrooms (2 master suites) and 3/5 baths. It is on a 1/2 acre lot with 50 palm trees. The asking price is $2,875,000 and there is a property tax discount due to its landmark status. Lots of photos of the house after the jump.
