Titled "Miss USA," there's a lot going on in this spread. Good news first: That bejeweled Margiela mask looks amazing, and was perfect for yesterday's "guess who will be on the cover!" teaser. Céline's cozy tie-belt dress (shown below, left) is a cute nod to Kim's belly, which is wrapped up like a woolly gift.
But the black-veil-and-Yankees-hat combination (above, right), combined with the American flag sweater, doesn't do her — or anyone — many favors. Neither does the semi-creepy jelly jar and droopy hydrangeas (top), although that could make for a fun Internet meme. And the Comme des Garçons one-piece, left open because it clearly didn't fit over Kim's tummy, just looks like a unzipped ski suit in soft focus (below).
But perhaps what's most troubling about these photographs is Kim's apparent joylessness. At best, her facial expression is that of grave stoicism; at worst, she looks uncomfortable, even ill. (Perhaps she really was; who knows?) This intimate shoot would have been a great opportunity to explore more flattering (or at least more relaxed) maternity looks than those she wore throughout her pregnancy. Alas, that ship has sailed.
