In the shot, the model donned a white corset with a high neck, long-sleeved top covering the top part of her chest.

She matched her lower half with a ruffled skirt that flowed out to the sides at the bottom.

The SKIMS founder hid her hands behind her back as she gazed dead center at the lens.

Her straight black hair was parted in the middle, resting behind her shoulders for the shot.

Her style and stance in the photo immediately reminded fans of a similar photo that British model Naomi posed in for the magazine year's prior.

The runway beauty was featured on the front cover of Vogue's 2020 issue where she too wore a white high neck long-sleeved top that puffed out at the bottom.

The 51-year-old also styled her hair in the same way as Kim, although she had her eyes closed and her hands clasped in front.

The fashion gossip Instagram page, made the connection between the photo's similarities, capturing the post with a dig at the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum writing: "Kim and Vogue said 'Black History Month'"

Naomi herself was one of the nearly 100,000 users who "liked" the post.

After Hollywood Unlocked reshared the side-by-side comparison, a user shared it to the platform starting a discussion within the thread.

They captioned the screenshot: "'Taking her sauce' got me 😂🤣😬," referring to the publication's caption, which read: "Oop! Looks like #NaomiCampbell is tired of #KimKardashing taking her sauce, especially on #BlackHistoryMonth"

One person commented on Naomi's response writing: "This is especially interesting because on many occasions, Kim has made it out to seem like her and Naomi are “so close.” With the happy birthday posts and the praise. Doesn’t look like Naomi agrees… 👀"

While a second user pointed the finger at Vogue adding: "this is really bad on Vogue, recycling shoots and looks though is all fashion seems to be."

And another agreed chiming in: "I think it was bad on the director of the photo shoot that all of her solo pics remind me other celebrities. The styling didn't feel original and seems very repetitive."

'BLACKFISHING' BACKLASH

The magazine shoot also led to some controversy as fans accused Kim of blackfishing due to her noticeably darker skin tone in the pics.

Posting photos that showed Kim with lighter, natural-looking skin alongside her darker tan in the photoshoot, a  user wrote: “Here we see Kim's original skin colour, Kim with a tan and Kim blackfishing.”

A second user commented: “This is not even her normal skin tone.”

Another critic questioned the person who shot the cover, asking why they believed Kim’s tan was “a good idea.”

SWEET GIFT

Meanwhile, Kim seemed to pay no mind to the backlash as she showed off a picture of a cake with her Vogue cover plastered on it.

She unboxed the cake on her Instagram Stories, thanking her pals for the gift.

"My besties know me well," she said.

Kim went on: "I would love nothing more than to come home to a Hanson's cake with a photo of myself on it."

She showed the card that accompanied the cake, saying: "My Bat Chat were also featured in Vogue," referencing a group chat that includes sister Khloe and pal Steph Shepherd.

LEFT OUT

Kim's ex Kanye West also shared photos from the shoot, which included some sweet group shots with their kids.

The snaps featured the reality star hanging out with her and the rapper’s kids, all playing around with basketballs and mini cars.

Everyone seemed to be having fun as they laughed and smiled and Kim gave her children kisses on the cheek.

Despite the former couple's public social media feuds just days prior, Kanye begged for the reunion of his family in the caption writing: “GOD PLEASE BRING OUR FAMILY BACK TOGETHER”

Kim filed for divorce from Kanye, 44, in February 2021.
