She has posed topless on several occasions, but Kendall Jenner’s latest shoot may be her most revealing ever as it sees her stark naked.

The model went nude for a tasteful black-and-white photo for Russell James, which sees her sitting down and protecting her modesty with her arms while smouldering at the camera as her wet hair whips around her.

On Wednesday, Kendall attended the launch party for the photographer’s new book Angels, which her picture will be appearing in.

And the 18-year-old felt little reason to leave much to the imagination for the party, which was hosted by Victoria’s Secret in New York City.

Kendall showed off her incredibly long legs in a teeny tiny black mini-skirt with a studded hem, and also wore a matching off-the-shoulder long-sleeved top that hugged her slender frame.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star added inches to her lithe 5ft 10in frame with a pair of simple black pumps.

And she looked every inch the off-duty model with her raven locks loose and minimal make-up highlighting her flawless complexion.

Kendall was joined by her mother and manager Kris Jenner, who beamed with pride as she posed alongside her second youngest of six children.

The 58-year-old wore an elaborately embroidered bronze lace mini-dress, along with a pair of beige court shoes.

Hugh Jackman was also at the event with his wife Deborra-Lee Furness, and was spotted catching up with Ben Stiller.

Victoria’s Secret model Martha Hunt posed beside her naked image which will feature in the book, and like Kendall saw no point in wearing something demure.

Instead the 25-year-old picked a completely see-through black dress with floral embroidery, leaving her underwear entirely on show.

Adriana Lima looked like she was having a great time as she planted a kiss on Russell's cheek and he swept her off her feet, while she dazzled in a multi-coloured printed dress.

Also sparkling was Lily Aldridge, who teamed her semi-sheer gown with heavy eyeliner.
