The summer season is officially here and thriving—and model Kendall Jenner has wasted no time heading out on a lavish vacation. This month, Jenner (and sister Kylie Jenner) headed to Saint-Tropez in France for a little R&R. Earlier this week, the siblings were spotted living their best lives, swimming in the ocean in their chic little day dresses. Today, however, Kendall was spotted doing a little shopping at the Chloé store with some friends, and her choice of a bright red minidress brought back one of the biggest trends of summer 2023: Tomato girl summer.

A few seasons back, tomato-themed looks was all of the rage on the runways and with celebrities. The aesthetic revolved around wearing shades of tomato red and earthy greens and browns; you could say it was all about dressing as though you were growing on a tomato vine in some chic, well-manicured garden. Today, in Saint-Tropez, Jenner revived the look yet again, pairing a red shift dress with red flip-flops. (Someone loves a monochromatic moment.)

Back in 2022, Jenner partook in tomato girl summer when she attended sister Kourtney Kardashian’s wedding in Portofino. The model sported a two-piece set covered in an earthy floral print—not exactly tomato red, but in the vein of the earthy gardenia vibe nontheless. Her latest look, however, is all-in on the summery fashion trend. Suddenly, we are craving a piece of heirloom tomato toast stat. Or, is it too early for a Bloody Mary?
