German photographer Peter Lindbergh took photos of Nicole Kidman, Tuesday for 2017 edition Pirelli Calendar.The photographer said he is not fond of high heels and bikinis for women.
The famed calendar Pirelli has been taking mature snaps of semi-nude models for their calendar for decades. Lindbergh's idea in capturing a photo is their nakedness in the soul and not their bodies. The Star wrote that the 14-Oscar winning actress Nicole Kidman will be featured in the calendar in a black and white close-up and a nude make-up.
Pirelli has been taking shots dramatically for decades. Among the stars included in the roll call and agreed to pose on make-up free includes Charlotte Rampling, Uma Thurman, Helen Mirren, Nicole Kidman, Lea Seydoux, Alicia Vikander, Kate Winslet, Julianne Moore, Robin Wright, Lupita Nyong'o, Rooney Mara, Zhang Ziyi and Jessica Chastain.

Lindbergh added that it is important to remind the people that there is different side of the beauty. And it would be perfection and truth by the time the models are presented in the media.
