Kim is a big fan of Cher. The wife of Kanye West says in an interview with Harper's Bazaar Arabia, "She's always had the sickest style, I'm obsessed with her." She adds, "To think that she was wearing these sheer dresses in the '70s and just what people must have thought back then."
Though Kim happily imitates the iconic singer's style for the magazine, she says she tries to be herself. "At the end of the day I still have to be me," she says. "If doing sexy shoots makes me feel confident, then I'm okay with it. That might not be appropriate for some people, and there's a time and a place. There's certain things I'll show my kids and certain things I won't show my kids. But generally I am okay with it. In moderation."
The mother of North and Saint also encourages other moms to do what makes them feel good. "More power to the moms that look really good, work really hard, do what they can so that they still feel sexy, still feel good about themselves," she says, adding, "I don't think for a second that because you become a mom you can't be sexy any more."
