Kendall Jenner’s Easy Trick to Modernize the LBD

For evening, the LBD is a mainstay that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion—but it can also be tricky to make feel fresh and fun again. How many times can one cleverly style a classic black dress? Stepping out on the red carpet in Las Vegas last night, Kendall Jenner wore her version of an LBD—not just any ol’ LBD, though—and instead used a bold footwear choice to modernize the whole ensemble. (An easy, yet effective, trick.)

For her appearance on the step and repeat, Jenner wore a strapless black dress with a feather-trimmed bust, a whimsical take on the LBD in and of itself. But for more of an It girl touch, she looked to her often-worn Yeezy PVC pumps to give the look an unexpected twist. Jenner’s choice of accessory continues her love for the naked shoe, which she often sports both in casual and glammed-up settings. (As does her sister, Kim Kardashian West.) But here, it feels particularly fresh as it offsets the daintiness of her frock’s pretty plumage, giving it an overall cooler and more current feel.
