Amber Rose Poses For ELLE…Kanyé Styles!

As you may have heard, Kanyé West was set to style his model girlfriend, Amber Rose, in an editorial spread for ELLE Magazine. And, here it is. I actually like it. It’s styled perfect for ELLE, minus that Giorgio Armani bodysuit, which exposed a bit too much. It frightens me how comfortable she is with showing her ENTIRE rear end like that! I mean, is that class? I don’t think so. But, whatever. Other pieces used in this shoot include designs by Dolce & Gabbana, Blumarine, Alexander Wang, and Kara Ross accessories.

Amber Rose is the mystery model Kanyé West styled for the October issue of Elle. Amber tells the magazine she has a 24-inch waist and 38-inch hips. She quite memorably showed off her curves at the fall 2009 Yves Saint Laurent show in Paris with Kanyé, wearing a black catsuit she bought in her hometown of South Philly and spent “$10 at the most” on. She’s pretty sure it’s from — wait for it — Contempo Casuals. Amber says of working with Kanyé:

“He’ll pick out something and he’ll be like ‘Babe, just … no.’ I’m more electric pink and bright yellow. And Kanye’s more like nude and bone. Like, bone is his favorite color. I’m like, whose favorite color is bone?”
She insists she isn’t Kanye’s “Barbie.” For example, Kanyé wanted her to wear a gown to the 125th Anniversary Gala of the Met. Amber chose a white Alexander Wang wrap dress with a thigh-flashing slit.

“I didn’t want to wear a long gown,” Rose says. “So then we get to the Met and everybody has a long gown. I was like, great. I didn’t know what the Met was!”
Proving anyone really can be a designer, Elle reports she might launch a line of sunglasses.
