Kim Kardashian West has never been one to do things by halves. Her comeback to the spotlight after a two month hiatus is with an eye-catching photoshoot, with the focus of attention on her famous derrière.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, 36, poses in dirt (again) for husband Kanye West's Yeezy collection in German fashion and art magazine 032c alongside younger sister, Khloe Kardashian, 32.

Kim Kardashian robbers caught on camera
Newly released security footage shows what French police believe to be Kim Kardashian's robbers making off with $14 million worth of stolen jewellery.
The editorial "conceptualised" by West, 39, and shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott sees the sisters roll around in the dirty-looking sand at the Wests' under-construction home in Calabasas, Los Angeles, wearing bodysuits and classic Yeezy homeless-chic knitted ribbed sweaters with holes.
In another shot, the sisters stand hand-in-hand in the shower wearing neutral bodysuits that turned see-through in the water.
"Calabasas is the Bethlehem of reality television and the location of Kanye West's Yeezy studio, an industrial space with Intel as its neighbour. The studio is a testing site for a new type of uniform, a search for the base unit of clothing," part of the accompanying article reads.
It's the second time Kardashian West has been prepared to get dirty for a shoot styled by her husband. Last year, the app mogul posed for System Magazine shot by by Juergen Teller at Château d'Ambleville, France, where West insisted for one frame his wife should lie on a mound of dirt, whilst wearing flesh-coloured lingerie.
The picture became an instant meme.
It's the first sign of life from Kardashian West who decided to take a break from the spotlight after she was held at gunpoint and robbed of around $13 million worth of jewellery in her Paris apartment by five men dressed as police, while at fashion week on October 3.
While Kardashian West looks to be making a start to return to public life, her rapper husband West remains hospitalised.
On the same day he cancelled his Saint Pablo concert tour, he reportedly admitted himself to UCLA Medical Centre where he underwent a psychiatric evaluation.
According to E!, Kardashian West spent part of Thanksgiving on Thursday by her husband's side.
"Kanye is trying to get better, but he has not been released yet because he and the doctors feel he needs more time to recover," a source told E!.
"Kim is indeed with him and will be by his side for a while today. She plans on going to eat with her family later and the kids. North and Saint just think their dad is away now. Kanye wants to get better, so that's a big part in this healing process. Kim is overwhelmed but is doing the best she can."
Before reports emerged of West's hospitalisation, his mother-in-law and KUWTK matriarch, Kris Jenner, told reporters on the red carpet at The Angel Ball on Monday night in New York that West was "exhausted".
Earlier in the day, the rapper cancelled all 21 dates of his current tour Saint Pablo, a day after backing out of his Los Angeles show at the last minute.
Known for his outrageous comments and erratic behaviour, the rapper caught attention at a gig in Sacramento on Saturday, where he performed just three songs, before venting in a 20 minute tirade, singling out Beyonce, long-time friend Jay Z, Mark Zuckerberg, Google and Hillary Clinton.
"Beyonce, I was hurt because I heard that you said you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year [at the MTV Music Awards] over me and over Hotline Bling. Now, don't go trying to diss Beyonce. She is great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win. F--- winning. F--- looking cool. F--- being cool," he said.

"I been sent here to give y'all my truth, even at the risk of my own life, my own success, my own career," he added.
He then pleaded with his Watch the Throne partner Jay Z to reconnect with him: "You still ain't called me. Jay Z, I know you got killers. Please don't send them at my head. Please call me. Talk to me like a man."
West has previously said that Jay Z did not get in touch following the Kardashian West robbery in Paris.
