Kate Upton threw aside her swimsuits and grabbed some cute pieces for her French Elle photoshoot in this month’s magazine. Kate is known for showing off her beach bod in almost all photo shoots. But it is nice to see in adorable outfits that look amazing on the young 20 year old model. Check out more of Kate’s Elle photoshoot: 

The great thing about this photoshoot is that it really looks like Kate is having a blast and acting like any other girl. While she is an amazing swimsuit model and has been on many “Sexist Women” lists, these photos are very different from her usual work. I mean, look at her photo taken with Terry Richardson in a GQ spread:

It is almost impossible to find an image that does not have Kate in a bikini by a pool, which is why here Elle spread is so refreshing. The spread, called “American Beauty,” definitely seems like a better fit to the model’s personality. Kate looks like she is having a lot of fun posing with stuffed animals and vintage cars, which feels more like what the 20 year old model on her.  

Other than Elle, British Vogue did another photoshoot similar to this one, where she was dressed in less racy clothing that her usual lingerie and bikini outfits in most photo shoots. According to editor-in-chief, Alexandra Shulman, this was a deliberate choice to have Kate be seen more seriously in the fashion world. And while we cannot take her seriously in a panda hat, it is nice to see her slight shift away from being a swimsuit model. We hope to see much more of Kate, both high fashion and teen fashion like she did in Elle.
