"It was kind of something that I'd wanted to do for a while. I'd done a shoot in the past with fat suits, and it led me to this, especially lately with this obsession with a new body shape," Yiapanis said. "I kind of wanted to question how valid that is for designers, whether it's just a stunt or if it's a true shift. We're so accustomed to the shape that's been on the runway for the past 20 years that I don't know how honest this new, more curvaceous figure is as an intention. It seems a bit like a publicity stunt. So I wanted to overdo it, and when Katie [Grand] told me that she was going to shoot Kim [Kardashian West], I thought this was the perfect chance to do this idea that I'd been wanting to do. A lot of designers seem to be courting people like Kim, but at the same time the clothes that they make still don't really fit that body, unless they're custom-made. There's a slight insincerity to that."
Yiapanis said when Kendall and the other models putt on the oversized silicone boobs and butts, their posing completely changed. "As soon as the breasts and bum came on, it was a different woman, and I think they kind of enjoyed that feeling of having that silhouette for a while."
As for fan reactions to the shoot, Yiapanis dished, "Yeah, it was fun to see how people initially thought it was nudity, then it was Photoshop. It didn't cross anyone's minds that these were prosthetics. I don't know how anyone could Photoshop something into those proportions."
