Was Kim Kardashian Plastic-fantastic in Latex Couture?

2014 has been a tough year for keeping Kim Kardashian out of Australia, headlines, and revealing outfits. The reality star was back in Melbourne last night to promote her new fragrance, Fleur Fatale, and decided a latex ensemble would be a marvellous choice for the paparazzi-filled red carpet.

I don’t think anyone was terribly phased on how little Kim left to the imagination in this skin-tight combo with exposed cleavage, because, let’s be honest, we’ve all seen her naked now anyway. It’s more the use of latex, the same material used to protect us from sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies, that has raised an eyebrow or two.

The blush-pink bodysuit and pencil skirt was by latex couture designer Atsuko Kudo, and props to Kim for getting into the uncomfortable-looking synthetic fabric. But we can’t turn a blind eye to how trashy the getup looks, despite its hefty price tag (around $535 AUD). We do love those suede pointed shoes, though.
