Kendall Jenner Braves Aspen Snow in Heels and Mini Dress
The model / reality star was spotted at a family dinner at Matsuhisa in Aspen (Khloé Kardashian was also photographed), before heading to Kemo Sabe to check out cowboy hats. All while wearing a grey Bottega Veneta mini dress with shearling detailing at the shoulder, which she paired with black tights and heels. With barely-there spaghetti straps and a fluffy white faux fur trim at the off-the-shoulder bodice, the show-stopping dress evoked images of an haute snow princess. She wore sheer black tights and pointy black pumps for her sisters’ night out, pulling her hair pulled half back and sporting glowing makeup in shades of brown and bronze.
Ever the daring fashion icon, Jenner paired the thigh-skimming frock with sheer black tights and pointed-toe black pumps, her gamine shoulders and legs exposed to snowflakes drifting lazily down. Slicked-back in a neat bun, her dark tresses and glowing complexion offset the wintery tableau behind her. Though puzzling to imagine stepping through snow in heels and a coat-less dress, Jenner exuded an unbothered nonchalance in the moment, more frost-kissed ingénue than frozen fashion victim.And truly she. was. committed. Like, walking through the snow unbothered by the prospect of freezing wet feet levels of committed.
While Angelenos are accustomed to seeing the model in her signature casual luxury everyday wear from brands like The Row and Khaite, Jenner has revealed a more daring, experimental streak during her Aspen holiday. Case in point, the alien-esque shield sunglasses from Bottega Veneta she recently modeled with a geometric Rick Owens puffer. Jenner also made jaws drop in Phoebe Philo’s $27,000 shearling statement coat, coincidentally after reports broke of her tryst with Bad Bunny. Revenge dress, anyone?
Though her wintery Aspen adventures may verge on impractical, one can’t help but admire Jenner’s fearless spirit and willingness to take style risks for the perfect Instagram moment. While we mere mortals would shudder at the thought of stepping outdoors without a proper winter coat, Jenner breezes through the snow looking utterly unbothered by the cold. Somehow, she makes it work every time.
So while we wouldn’t recommend throwing caution to the wind and venturing into snowdrifts in mini dresses and stilettos, we can still revel in Jenner’s show-stopping look from the toasty comforts of our own homes. And should the model need someone to drape their down coat over her icy shoulders, we volunteer as tribute.
