Kendall & Kylie Jenner Redefine ‘The Body’ at the Met Gala
Key Points:
- Kendall and Kylie Jenner arrived at the Met Gala wearing nipple-accented bodices, referencing Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS nipple push-up bra and aligning with the event’s theme of the body as both subject and structure.
- Kendall Jenner’s outfit, a collaboration with Zac Posen, featured a custom-moulded leather bodice over a reworked white T-shirt, designed as a second-skin form inspired by classical “wet drapery” to emphasize the body’s shape.
- Kylie Jenner wore a custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown by Daniel Roseberry, showcasing a mid-unravelling satin ball gown with a rigid bustier that frames the body, highlighting themes of construction and transformation.
- The contrast in Kylie’s look between the structured corsetry and voluminous skirt, along with Schiaparelli Couture jewels, reinforced the focus on the body as a central element rather than an accessory.
