Kendall Jenner has never attended an official Oscars red carpet, but the model is a mainstay at the annual Vanity Fair after-party. One of the event's most reliable guests, Jenner can always be counted on to turn out a high-fashion look straight from the world's most exclusive runways or a hard-to-source archive.
For the past few years, Jenner and her stylist, Danielle Goldberg, have leaned into the after-party circuit's reputation for revealing the season's best naked dresses. Last year, she wore a skintight, lacy Mugler gown from the archives.The year before, she wore a semi-sheer dress from Maison Margiela's infamous Couture Spring 2024 runway. Search even further through the Kendall Jenner Vanity Fair files, and you'll find LBDs in every silhouette and length. But for 2026's best-dressed list, it was time for Jenner and Michelle to turn toward a new look by Chanel—and a reigning cool-girl color trend.
