Kylie Jenner has by no means acted a day in her life — except you depend the truth TV theatrics of “Retaining Up with the Kardashians” (and its many spinoffs) and her occasional music video cameos — however she’s turn out to be considerably of a fixture at Hollywood’s largest occasions. That is principally because of her boyfriend of almost two years, Timothée Chalamet, whose awards season run has stored her firmly within the A-list orbit. Their purple carpet appearances are all the time buzzy, both as a result of they pack on the PDA or simply from the oddity of a Kardashian navigating the movie business. However on the 2025 Oscars, Jenner wasn’t making headlines for being somebody’s arm sweet. As a substitute, she was the discuss of the night time for all of the unsuitable causes: her outfit.

To be honest, Jenner has solidified her standing as a style icon through the years. She’s had some jaw-dropping purple carpet moments, together with her all-purple Met Gala look. However this time? Not a lot. She arrived in a customized black Miu Miu bustier gown with cut-out detailing that left little to the creativeness. It clashed awkwardly with Chalamet’s butter-colored Givenchy go well with, a way more refined selection for a person up for Finest Actor for his function as a younger Bob Dylan in “A Full Unknown.”

Sometimes, when this couple reveals up, they steal the present. This time, it was principally Jenner on individuals’s lips — and never in a great way. The web had ideas, and let’s simply say, they weren’t precisely glowing critiques.

Kylie Jenner could have regarded beautiful in her customized Miu Miu ensemble, however not everybody was impressed. In truth, some followers assume she was blatantly attempting to steal Timothée Chalamet’s thunder along with her daring gown. Whereas Chalamet has undergone a surprising transformation and exuded Finest Actor nominee vitality in his Givenchy go well with, Jenner’s look felt extra Kardashian than elegant — and followers on-line did not maintain again with their critiques.

“She must strive elegant, modest seems to be. Basic glam and even fashionable conservative would work so effectively on her. Instagram make-up & a Style Nova esque glitter gown with cleavage as much as the neck is so drained & boring (and cheesy),” one Redditor groaned, with one other saying, “Kylie attends many Couture reveals, but she will’t get a customized gown for the Oscars? That gown seems to be like one thing from the mall.” Of us on X (previously Twitter) are no kinder. “It is so bizarre to see Kylie with Timothée however then once more who is aware of. My factor is….. why would not she ever coordinate with him. That black gown with that yellow go well with? Yikes!” one individual tweeted. “Sadly, Kylie wore an orally I applicable [sic] gown to remove consideration from Timothée. She must cowl her women. He ought to have introduced his mother,” mentioned one other.

Savage! However they may have a degree: With entry to the perfect designers on the planet, you’d assume she’d present up in one thing that really regarded costly as a substitute of one thing that belongs in a Shein haul. Then once more, she’s simply the plus one, so perhaps we must always all settle for that she’s there to do what Kardashians do finest: be certain all eyes are on them.
