The singer - known for her stunning costume choices - looks breathtaking in a red kimono as she poses as a geisha in a shoot to promote her forthcoming world tour.
The tour begins in Paris on May 6th and will reportedly cost more than £10million to stage.
It includes shows in Greece, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Luxembourg, Russia, Latvia and Spain, and has already taken over half a million in sales.
KylieX2008 is the singer's first major tour since her battle with breast cancer.
She had to cut short her Showgirl tour in 2005 when she was diagnosed with the illness.
Kylie recently told how doctors initially missed the cancer, giving her the all-clear.
After an initial check-up, the singer was told she had "nothing to worry about".
She was only correctly diagnosed when she decided to seek a second opinion midway through the tour.
KylieX2008 kicks off in the UK in June at the Belfast Odyssey Arena before moving to Glasgow, Newcastle and Manchester ending at the O2 Arena in London.
Meanwhile Kylie is said to have abandoned plans to crack America after her latest attempt failed.
She reportedly told a friend, "I gave it my best shot. I won't try again."
Kylie appeared on numerous US shows to promote her album X including The Today Show, Dancing With The Stars, The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Late Late Show.
But despite her attempts the record sold only 6,000 copies and debuted at number 139 on the US Billboard charts.
