Curvy model gives Kim Kardashian a run for her money as she bares her pert derriere to recreate the reality star's cheeky 'break the internet' shoot
- Abigail Ratchford, from Los Angeles, put her own spin on Kim's Paper magazine cover during a shoot for her 2016 calendar
- The 23-year-old explained on her Instagram account that the calendar is inspired by her 'favorite images'
Kim Kardashian has some competition in the curves department from a Los Angeles-based model who has put her own spin on the reality star's infamous 'break the internet' shoot for Paper magazine.
Abigail Ratchford, 23, posted a cheeky snap of herself on Instagram as she was preparing to recreate the now-iconic spread from November last year, which saw Kim, 35, stripping down to nothing but a pearl necklace, baring her enviable curves in a variety of fun poses.
And looking at Abigail's behind the scenes sneak peek, the model is able to give Kim a good run for her money as far as curves are concerned; in the social media snap, Abigail can be seen in a photo studio baring her bottom with her back to the camera - just like Kim did on the cover of Paper.

Perfect match: Los Angeles-based model Abigail Ratchford has recreated Kim Kardashian's 'break the internet' shoot for her 2016 calendar
The original: For her cover shoot, Kim, 35, struck a variety of fun poses, including this one which seems to be the inspiration for 23-year-old Abigail's own snaps
Spot the difference: Abigail certainly seems to have the same fondness for selfies as her inspiration Kim, and also possesses the same curvy figure as the reality star
Clearly eager to ensure that she does the original image justice, Abigail has pulled out all the stops for her recreation, finding the same style of sparkly black gown worn by Kim on her cover, as well as a chunky pearl necklace and long, black silk gloves.
Her long dark brown locks have also been teased up into a bold top knot; even the brown background that Abigail is posing in front of looks near-identical to that used in Kim's own shoot.
The model also made sure she had a bottle of Champagne ready and waiting - perhaps an indication that she is going to attempt to recreate more of Kim's images, particularly the snap which saw her opening a bottle of fizz, while balancing a glass on her bottom and shooting the frothy beverage into the glassware, all the while offering a cheeky grin at the camera.
Alongside her behind the scenes image, which she shared with her 2.1 million followers on Wednesday, Abigail commented: 'On set yesterday at my Calendar shoot which are all pictures inspired by my favorite Images [sic].'

Strike a pose: The model's Instagram account is full of pouty pictures like this, which are incredibly similar to those often shared by Kim and her sisters
Baring is all: Abigail doesn't seem to be shy about flaunting her figure in front of the lens
Barely there: While some might balk at the thought of uncovering their bodies on camera, Abigail is no stranger to pulling it off with confidence
Pop! Kim's shoot was the inspiration for many a Halloween costume this year, as people attempted to put their own twist on this Champagne shot
She then added the hashtags, #BreakTheInternet and #KimKPaperMagazine.
And while some might be nervous about posing in such a barely-there ensemble, it seems Abigail is more than confident to uncover her curves in front of the camera.
One day before revealing a sneak peek at her break the internet-inspired shoot, the model posted a video taken during the second day of her calendar shoot, in which she can been seen lying naked on a bed of petals, while some dedicated assistance cover her intimate areas with the flowers.
No doubt inspired by the iconic scene from Oscar-winning movie American Beauty, in which actress Mena Suvari was seen lying naked among some beautiful flowers, Abigail captioned the saucy footage: '12 hours later and thats a wrap on Day 2 of my Calendar Shoot. Cant wait for you guys to see what we have in store.'
Another iconic image: Abigail also shared a video of herself posing in a bed of roses for a photo that is no doubt inspired by the Oscar-winning movie American Beauty, starring Mena Suvari

Expecting: Kim's body has certainly changed since her Paper shoot; she is currently expecting her second child with husband Kanye West, a baby brother for her two-year-old daughter North
For her Halloween costume this year, Abigail went down the same route as fellow model Heidi Klum, choosing to dress up as cartoon siren Jessica Rabbit.
Donning a strapless glittery red gown, a bright red wig and some purple gloves, Abigail was the spitting image of the seductive cartoon character, with some Instagram commenters suggesting that she looked more like the real deal than Heidi herself.
'Way better than Heidi,' one person wrote, while another added: 'This is the best Jessica Rabbit costume. EVER.'
Although Abigail's calendar shoot might well be the most accurate tribute to Kim's original images, she is by no means the first person to put their own twist on the fun photos.
Halloween fun: This year Abigail chose to dress up as Jessica Rabbit, donning a figure-hugging red dress and bright red wig for her costume
Copycat: Heidi Klum also chose to dress as the saucy cartoon character, however she went even further with her costume, adding full face and body prosthetics in an attempt to perfect the look
Tribute: Kelly Ripa recreated Kim's shoot as part of Live With Kelly And Michael's special Halloween episode
Kelly Ripa attempted to recreate the famous Champagne shot, donning a similar full-length sparkly dress, a dark brunette wig and a chunky pearl necklace for the recreation.
However TV host Kelly's version, which she wore on air for Halloween, wasn't quite so glamorous - and featured a Champange shoot made out of paper, rather than the real deal.
Kim obviously enjoyed being the 'butt' of Kelly's joke, as she told the chat show host that she 'nailed it'.
The reality television star took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to repost the image and captioned it: 'How cute is @KellyRipa !!!!! Haha @michaelstrahan You guys nailed it! Happy Halloween!'
Abigail has yet to reveal when her calendar will be released to the public, however sources close to the model told TMZ that the soon-to-be released merchandise will feature 'at least one topless shot', in which Abigail will be covered with body paint, adding that there will be 'no full frontal'.
