Did Kim's nude pics give her the confidence to don latex in public?
It seems Kim Kardashian's recent nude, full-frontal photo shoot gave her the confidence to wear latex on the red carpet.
The 34-year-old Keeping Up with the Kardashians star donned a figure-hugging pale pink latex dress for the Fleur Fatale fragrance launch at Spice Market on Tuesday, Nov. 18, in Melbourne, Australia, putting all her curves on display.

While down under, Kim showed up on Australia's The Project and chatted with host Peter Helliar, Fifi Box, Natarsha Belling and Rove McManus about her decision to go completely nude for Paper Magazine. "I love the photos, I did it for me, I hope other people like them," she told the hosts. "Everyone should do what they they are comfortable with, and I'm never one to preach, but I felt really positive and really good about myself."

So how did this nude shoot come about? "I looked back at a clip of Keeping Up with the Kardashians last season and I was really heavily pregnant, I was about eight months pregnant, and I looked at my sisters and said, 'You guys, when I feel like I have my body back, I'm doing a nude shoot,'" she recalled.
And that's what just what she did. "When I got the opportunity to work with the photographer Jean-Paul Goude, who photographs everyone nude, that's his thing, I was so honored and excited to work with him, because he is a legend," Kim said. "And for me that was something I knew I wanted to do to make myself feel confident."

Kim doesn't seem too concerned with those criticizing her nude pics. "To each his own, as you were saying, as a role model I’m not saying anyone else should do that, but for me, I did it as an art project that was going to make me feel confident and feel good," she continued. "And it taught me to do what you want to do."
