EXO's Kai had a dramatically mature transformation for the September issue of Nylon. The handsome idol starred in a black-and-white pictorial filled with must-have Fall/Winter season runway apparel by brands like Saint Laurent. The cover is particularly special because it will be Nylon's 7th anniversary issue.

The magazine first teased fans via Instagram last week by sharing the first preview photo. In the shot, Kai modeled a striped turtleneck cardigan, black slacks and shiny boots. He sat on the floor next to overturned director chairs.

The photo was uploaded with a caption that said, "For the fans who are waiting with bated breath for this month's cover and photoshoot with Kai, our editor has released a best cut. Look forward to our interview with Kai as well, who has a great personality and upstanding thoughts."

To the delight of EXO fans, the cover was recently revealed! In the picture, Kai wore a striped suit and stared into the camera, ignoring his messy hair.

If you can't wait to get your hands on a copy, the publication will be released to the public on August 18.

In other fashion news, Kai posed with his best friend, SHINee's Taemin, and label-mate Krystal for the August issue of W Korea.
