Kylie Jenner Channels ’90s Supermodel Style in Paris

PARIS, France — Kylie Jenner, 27, turned heads during Paris Couture Fashion Week by channeling the iconic style of supermodel Naomi Campbell. The reality star and entrepreneur wore a modified version of Azzedine Alaïa’s legendary Fall 1991 leopard-spot catsuit, reimagined as a micro-minidress with sheer leopard spots and velvet cutouts.

Jenner’s outfit paid homage to the late designer Azzedine Alaïa, whose signature clingy knits and body-con silhouettes revolutionized fashion in the 1990s. The original 1991 runway look, modeled by Naomi Campbell, Beverly Peele, and Christy Turlington, featured matching black cashmere berets and a feral, animalistic edge. Jenner’s modern take on the design captured the same transformative energy that made Alaïa’s work legendary.

“The dress flattered her from all angles,” noted one observer, as Jenner shared a series of sultry selfies from her Paris hotel room. Her bombshell blowout and caramel-brown Kylie Cosmetics lipstick completed the ’90s supermodel aesthetic, a look she captioned “meow” on Instagram.

Later, Jenner dined at Bar des Prés, a celebrity hotspot on Paris’s Right Bank, where she continued to embody the Parisienne chic that Alaïa’s designs are known for. Her appearance at the crudo-centric restaurant further cemented her status as a fashion icon, blending archival inspiration with contemporary flair.

Alaïa, who passed away in 2017, remains a towering figure in fashion, with his designs continuing to influence celebrities and designers alike. Jenner’s choice to wear his archival-inspired look in Paris underscores the enduring appeal of his work and the city’s role as a global fashion capital.
