Kim Kardashian looks starstruck as she joins ‘icon’ Kate Moss and daughter Lila to tour the Vatican

She previously revealed Kate Moss is her ‘icon’ and has admitted to copying her style. 

So Kim Kardashian, 40, was undoubtedly feeling rather starstruck as she joined the model and her teenage daughter Lila Grace for a tour of the Vatican on Monday.

The reality star looked slightly overwhelmed as she sidled alongside the supermodel, 47, and her daughter, 18, in the back of a car, where Kate had a swift cigarette.

For the outing, Kim shunned conservative attire and instead opted to flaunt her sensational curves in an off-the-shoulder white lace dress as she toured the city, which is the official residence of the Pope of the Catholic Church.  

Kim was sure to turn heads in the figure-hugging Bardot-style number, which featured a cut-out design at the midsection, allowing a glimpse of her toned abs. 

Rounding off her look, the mother-of-four added barely-there white heels and shielded her eyes with futuristic sunglasses.

Kim, who donned a white face mask, looked in good spirits as she carried a black leather jacket, which she may have perhaps used to cover up inside so as to adhere to the conservative dress code. 

Kate also looked sensational in a little black dress that she teamed with a satin shirt and mule heels. 

The fashion icon accessorised with a pair of cat eye sunglasses and toted a laser cut handbag.

Later in the day, the Vogue covergirl donned a pink printed shirt that she teamed with black shorts and flats.

Looking just as fashionable as her mother, Lila wowed in a cobalt satin maxi dress that she paired with a black blazer and Prada handbag.  

The mother-daughter duo have been in Italy on work, with Kate accompanying Lila to a Fendi photoshoot on the weekend.  

Kim seems to be in the country on holiday, and her glamorous visit to Vatican City, home of the Pope, comes after she previously called Pope Francis ‘dope’.

In 2015, during the time of Kanye West’s then presidential bid, Pope Francis visited Washington where he spoke about gay marriage, abortion, immigration and the Syrian refugee crisis.

And before he addressed Congress, he received a big, albeit brief, endorsement from the reality TV star, who was clearly keeping abreast of the big events at Capitol Hill.

‘The pope is dope,’ she tweeted to her fans.

She quickly moved on though and turned her attention back to promoting her website and app, tweeting: ‘Gonna live stream with all of this contour on!!!’

Kim was no doubt pleased that the timing lined-up with Kate’s schedule, as she previously admitted that the model was her ‘icon’. 

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline back in 2014, Kim announced: ‘I love Kate Moss. 

‘I love how she wears her winged eyeliner and her messy hair and how it looks so effortless but still put together. It looks beachy and messy at the same time; I love her glamour.’ 

In 2018, Kim then copied one of Kate’s iconic fashion looks, sporting the ‘naked dress’ that made headlines for Kate back in 1993.

Opting for an updated version of the sheer slip dress, Kim wowed in the leggy number, but sported a coat to protect her modesty.

Meanwhile, Kim’s been making the most of her visit to Italy.

On Sunday, she and her glam squad enjoyed the sights of the historical Colosseum, with the star wowing in a tight white bodysuit and blue shorts. 

What is the dress code in the Vatican? 

There is a basic dress code that both men and women must adhere to when visiting Vatican city, particularly St. Peter’s Basilica and/or the Vatican museums (including the Sistine Chapel).

Visitors must cover their knees and upper arms, while they are prohibited from wearing shorts or skirts above the knee, sleeveless tops, and low-cut shirts.

Men must also remove their hats when entering, though women are permitted to remain wearing theirs. 

Shoulders must also be covered and visitors may be turned away or advised to cover up with a shawl.  

The beauty appeared to be having the best time as she also visited a vintage shop before strolling around the cobbled amphitheatre in her heeled sandals. 

After working up an appetite amid her day of playing tourist, Kim was spotted arriving at Dal Bolognese restaurant for a bite to eat. 

Meanwhile, earlier on Monday, Kim nothing short of flawless as she left her hotel in the Italian capital on her way to lunch at Roscioli Salumeria.

All eyes were on the stunner as she flaunted her cleavage and midriff in a skimpy cardigan with just one button fastened. 

The trip comes amid a report that Kim is worried about dating again and ‘did not think that Kanye would move on with someone else before her,’ a source told Us Weekly. 

‘She’s not focused on dating at the moment but actually worries that guys will not want to date her because of how public her relationship was with Kanye,’ an insider said on Saturday.

Kim filed for divorce from her estranged husband in February after nearly seven years of marriage.

‘She also knows how hard it is to build trust with someone so she thinks it’s going to take time before letting someone into her private life. It was easy with Kanye because they were friends before so they had years’ worth of trust,’ the source explained.

The insider also continued to dish on Kanye’s blossoming relationship with Russian supermodel Irina Shayk, 35, saying that the SKIMS founder ‘did not think’ the rapper would ‘move on’ before she did.

‘She certainly did not think that Kanye would move on with someone else before her,’ the insider noted.

Irina and Kanye have reportedly been dating for a ‘couple months,’ and they were seen celebrating his birthday in Provence, France after he decided to ‘shoot his shot’ in photos obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com.

Kanye and Irina have known each other for at least a decade, having first worked together when she played an angel in the music video for his song Power before hitting the runway for the rapper when he debuted a fall/winter collection at Paris Fashion Week in 2012.

Despite Kim’s hesitation to dip into the dating pool again, her famous family and inner circle of VIP friends have offered reassurance that ‘she has nothing to worry about,’ while maintaining that they will be ‘setting her up,’ with eligible bachelors.

‘Friends and family are telling her she has nothing to worry about and when she’s ready to date again, they gladly will be setting her up with potential suitors,’ the source shared.
