Kendall Jenner's Oscars Party Look Turns Heads With Its Unusual Fabric

Kendall Jenner continued her reign as one of the best-dressed celebrities at the annual Vanity Fair Oscars party, turning heads in a daring and unexpected ensemble.

On Sunday night, Kendall Jenner walked the red carpet in a sheer black lace gown made entirely of rubber, showcasing her penchant for bold and avant-garde fashion.

The striking gown, pulled from the Thierry Mugler 1992 spring/summer collection, featured a thigh-high slit, bell sleeves, and a high neck. Jenner completed the vampy, gothic look with black lace heels, dangling black earrings, and a sleek blunt bob hairstyle that added an edgy touch.

But what shocked fans is that the dress was actually made out of rubber!

Inside the star-studded party, Jenner was seen mingling with sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner. While Kylie skipped the red carpet, she joined the festivities in a black lace ensemble by Ashi Studios, spending the evening alongside her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet.

Meanwhile, Kardashian opted for a more bridal-inspired look, wearing a white Balenciaga haute couture ball gown that sparked comparisons to crumpled toilet paper online.

Fans immediately took to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, to comment on her look, with one user expressing, "Her Vanity Fair Oscar party looks always eat."

Another said, "This Diva."

A third called her a "Legend!!"

As someone else claimed, "She’s got to teach her sister how to dress."

Jenner is no stranger to sheer and daring looks at the Vanity Fair party.

Last year, she captivated onlookers with a see-through black Maison Margiela gown from the label’s spring 2024 couture collection. The delicate sheer fabric left little to the imagination, highlighting the model’s white corset and matching thong beneath.

In 2023, Jenner also embraced vintage couture, stepping out in a bronze gold Jean Paul Gaultier gown from the spring 2008 couture line. The gown, reminiscent of Marion Cotillard’s iconic ivory version worn at the 2008 Oscars, showcased Jenner’s appreciation for archival fashion.

This year has been nothing short of busy for the 818 Tequila founder.

Jenner graced runways around the globe, including a standout appearance on the Schiaparelli runway during Paris Haute Couture Week in January. She later made waves at New York Fashion Week, appearing on the Calvin Klein catwalk.

Jenner's runway moment for Calvin Klein was particularly buzzworthy, as she walked past her ex, musician Bad Bunny, who sat in the front row. Dressed in an oversized coat, square-toe flats, and circular glasses, Jenner kept her cool, demonstrating that whether on the runway or a red carpet, she remains unshakable and undeniably fashionable.

Kendall Jenner made waves at Paris Fashion Week, not just on the runway, but also on the streets, where her high-octane off-duty looks turned heads. While she strutted her stuff for Schiaparelli and Alaïa, it was her sidewalk style, curated by stylist Dani Michelle, that truly showcased her fashion prowess.

“Kendall knew her hair would be blonde and we wanted to style around it,” Michelle shared with Vogue. “Before any special fitting, she shares her vision, the references she feels, and what inspires her. Then I work on it every day ’til the day we fit, where we create moments with the looks that she connects with the most.”

This season, Jenner embraced neutral tones and classic silhouettes, leaning into an elegant and timeless aesthetic. Her looks ranged from a vintage Galliano skirt suit to modern pieces from The Row. She also sported a striking navy vintage Mugler skirt suit and completed her tonal blonde vision with an archival McQueen ensemble.

According to Michelle, Jenner's inspiration stemmed from a love of classic, tailored looks.

“She was inspired by classic, elegant tailoring [which] we achieved in her vintage Galliano skirt suit, timeless classics with her The Row suit and dresses, striking navy with her vintage Mugler skirt suit, and we wanted a beautiful tonal blonde in her archival McQueen,” Michelle explained.

Her street style during Paris Fashion Week proved yet again why she remains a top influencer in the fashion world, effortlessly setting trends both on and off the runway.
