Kim Kardashian doesn’t really need to do posed pH๏τo shoots – she can get all the promo she needs by whacking up a selfie for her 116 million Instagram followers.

But when she does get in front of the professional camera, as opposed to the one on her phone, she goes all out.

After parading that famous derriere all over Miami in an obscenely teeny thong, Kim has gone space age for a ʙικιɴι shoot on the beach.

The 37-year-old – who previously declared she doesn’t take selfies anymore – teamed up with close friend Larsa Pippen for the mystery shoot, which saw them working it on a beach in Miami, Florida, wearing metallic silver swimwear.

While Kim’s chosen ʙικιɴι didn’t shrink quite as much as the pink thong she wore for her prior shoot (although that feat would have been near impossible), the mum-of-three still made sure all eyes and lenses were on her with the futuristic two-piece.

Kim showed off the hourglᴀss figure that has the world obsessing over her every angle in the ʙικιɴι, while she finished her look with a high ponytail.

Kim was pictured kneeling on the sand for a Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition vibe, before strutting her stuff with Larsa – who opted for a silver swimsuit with a silhouette that required a ʙικιɴι wax just to wear it.
