Kylie Jenner’s Signature Red Carpet Style Has Come a Long Way

Kylie Jenner is a woman of superlatives, or at least of notable firsts: She’s the youngest Kardashian; she’s allegedly a self-made billionaire; she’s the sister who has undergone the most radical style transformation. Not bad for a Gen Z-er with four accomplished older sisters and an Olympian for a parent. She was born into a reality-television dynasty, and as a result, grew up in the spotlight, accompanying her parents on the red carpet and frequently twinning with Kendall Jenner, the sister just two years her elder.

But over time, Kylie has cultivated a look that sets her apart from her closest sibling and aligns her more directly with her Kardashian half-sisters, filling her closet with shimmering Balmain looks and plenty curve-hugging pieces. She’s established relationships with some of fashion’s biggest brands and designers—from Jean Paul Gaultier and Maison Margiela to Casey Cadwallader of Mugler—and let’s not forget her decades-long friendship with Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing. Below, see Kylie Jenner’s red carpet evolution, from tween star to Balmain muse and self-described “cool mom.”
