Kendall Jenner marked a first this week, stepping onto the Venice Film Festival red carpet for the very first time. For the Wild Horse Nine screening, she wore a white sleeveless vintage Giorgio Armani gown from the house's fall winter 1995 collection, covered in gold floral detailing, and kept her dark hair down. She finished the look with Briony Raymond cushion cut diamond earrings and a pair of Aquazzura heels.
Why she was there
Jenner attended the festival as a global fragrance ambassador for Emporio Armani, a role she spoke about with ELLE Canada in April, calling the partnership a natural fit given the brand's long standing focus on helping people express their most genuine selves. She pointed to Giorgio Armani's own legacy of effortless, timeless elegance as something that continues to inspire her, saying his work proves a look can stay classic while remaining young and vibrant.
How her style has changed
The Venice appearance was Jenner's first red carpet look since the Met Gala in May, where she wore GapStudio. She told ELLE Canada her relationship with fashion has become more curated over time, saying she now values longevity and quality over chasing trends and looks for pieces she can picture wearing a decade from now. On beauty, she described keeping things simple in a separate June interview with ELLE, saying she leans on a good lip and clean skin rather than elaborate hair and makeup, and that she prefers not to feel like she is wearing too much when she goes out.
