On Saturday, Kendall Jenner was one of many celebrities at the Bottega Veneta RTW Spring 2025 show at Milan Fashion Week in Italy. The Kardashians star had her new platinum blonde hair straight and down with a slight flip at the shoulders.
She was wearing a rich brown dress with long sleeves and mock turtleneck that made her blonde hair pop even more. The waist was cinched in with a gold belt buckle gathering ruched fabric. On her feet were a pair of red kitten heels and she carried a woven brown leather clutch. In her ears, Jenner had a small pair of gold hoop earrings.
In a video shared on X, formerly Twitter, Jenner posed at the show with Olympic gold medalist Imane Khelif.
Jenner debuted her hair on Instagram on September 11 with a carousel of photos she captioned, “Blonded.”
In most of the photos, the model was wearing jeans and a black leather coat over a black T-shirt. In some pics, Jenner’s hair was down as she combed it. In others, she had it up in a tortoise-shell pattern clip. She also wore black glasses and a black headband in some shots and a pair of gold hoop earrings.
Jenner often travels around the world to model and attend fashion shows, but in a recent interview she admitted it’s not always easy to pursue her career while talking with Emma Chamberlain for her podcast Anything Goes.
“I’m not going to sit here and say that I’ve had the toughest journey. I think I’ve been extremely fortunate,” Jenner shared. “But I also have had my own set of challenges, whether it’s [being] overworked or not getting a job that I would’ve really loved to get.”
She added, “I’ve had really dark nights where I’ve been in random cities and just hysterically crying myself to sleep because I haven’t been home in three months, and I’ve been pretty much alone the entire time…There’s been a lot of definite moments where I’m like, ‘What is going on? Is this all worth it?’”
But it’s definitely not all bad.
“I probably would’ve never traveled the way I have or the amount that I have had I not had this job. I’ve met a lot of amazing people,” the model said. “I feel very grateful for my experience.”
