The whimsical designs seen throughout the White Sands SS12 collection are beautifully captured in this lookbook starring reality TV star Kendall Jenner. As the half sister of none-other-than Kim Kardashian herself, the model will gain the swimwear collection a lot of attention, yet Jenner's lithe frame and innocent presence is a perfect foil for the White Sands SS12 collection as well.
In addition to her beauty and fame, Kendall Jenner will also bring a bit of controversy to the White Sands SS12 collection. After the uproar the 10 year-old French model Thylane Blondeau caused when appearing in a mature French Vogue editorial, the industry is being scrutinized for inappropriate images starring children. At 15 years old, Kendall Jenner's White Sands SS12 lookbook is sure to stir up some controversy.
