We’re all tucking away our coats and heavy jackets for spring, right? Right?
Well, not Kendall Jenner, apparently. Last night (April 30), the model showed just how to wear a heavy coat even as the weather warms up. While Hailey Bieber opted for an ice blue minidress from Tom Ford’s Gucci tenure, her dinner companion mixed hard and soft with a little help from her favorite brand, The Row.
Jenner’s top half was straight out of The Matrix. She wore a black leather zip-up from the Olsen-fronted label—the $9,500 Jilly jacket—with utilitarian finishes like a high collar, detachable hood, and drawstring waist. She created some sartorial tension with her bottom half: A pair of flowing white silk trousers.
The model’s accessories were also a lesson in contrast. She wore a pair of impenetrable, Neo-esque black rectangular sunglasses, contrasting with her silk accordion top handle purse—also from The Row. She found her sartorial middle ground with her shoes, a pair of black leather pointy-toe kitten mules.
So, when considering your spring and summer wardrobe, don’t rush to put away your leather jacket just yet. Take a cue from Kendall Jenner and remember that opposites attract.
