It was the models who almost stole the show at the Venice Film Festival tonight, when Kendall Jenner graced the premiere of Wild Horse Nine with a breathtaking look.
The fashion star, 30, swapped a more modern piece for a timeless ’90s dress as she made an early appearance on the red carpet.
Kendall proudly showed off her physique in the dress from Giorgio Armani’s 1995 collection as she took a break to sign autographs for her fans.
The fashion star, an ambassador for Armani Beauty at the festival, paired her outfit with diamonds from Briony Raymond.
Like many models, she made the most of her appearance at the festival, despite not starring in the Martin McDonagh film, and was joined by fashion favorite Stella Maxwell, who opted for a revealing black lace dress.
Wild Horse Nine stars Parker Posey, John Malkovich, Sam Rockwell and Steve Buscemi and marks Martin’s return to directing for the first time since his critically acclaimed 2022 film The Banshees of Inisherin earned a string of Oscar nominations.

Set in 1973, shortly before the Chilean coup, the film sees CIA officers Chris and Lee being sent from Santiago to Easter Island by their bureau chief, MJ.
Amidst the iconic images of the island, and as the old partners grapple with their dark pasts and current conspiracies, Chris’s renewed bond with a pair of rebellious students threatens to take everyone’s journey to this remote paradise sideways.
The film is competing for the coveted Golden Lion Award and will be released in theaters on November 6.
Although Kendall is expected to attend a number of Armani events in the coming days, her new boyfriend Jacob Elordi is unlikely to join her.
The Wuthering Heights actor attended the Venice Film Festival last year to promote his film Frankenstein, but is not expected to attend this year.
Jacob is enjoying a break from the big screen after a hectic year, with the release of his Oscar-nominated role in Frankenstein and the blockbuster Wuthering Heights.
In his spare time, Jacob has seen Kendall in London, Hollywood and Australia.
The couple went public with their relationship in April when they were glimpsed passionately kissing at the after-party for Bieber’s Coachella performance after being set up by Kendall’s younger sister Kylie.

In the intervening months, their romance has seen them visit Hawaii and Japan together, with the pair even going viral on TikTok for holding hands in Tokyo.
The couple also traveled to London for the premiere of The Dog Stars.
Their trip included a glamorous dinner at Cipriani with Jacob’s father John, followed by the red carpet event for the film on Thursday.
It is reported that Jacob booked the $82,000 per night penthouse suite at the famous London hotel Claridge’s for himself and his girlfriend in an attempt to impress her.
An insider exclusively told the Daily Mail that they were dating “as early as early February” thanks to a bit of matchmaking from Kendall’s sister Kylie.

Should celebrities overshadow movie stars at major festivals with their red carpet appearances?
At the time, Kylie’s boyfriend Timothée Chalamet was waging a best actor Oscar campaign for his turn as an underground ping-pong champion in Marty Supreme.
Meanwhile, Jacob was also nominated for a series of awards for his role as the monster in Guillermo Del Toro’s adaptation of Frankenstein.
“Kylie was around Jacob a lot during Timothée’s marathon because Jacob was nominated for Frankenstein and Timothée was nominated for Marty Supreme,” the source explained to the Daily Mail.
“Kylie is the alpha sister and pushed Kenny to start a romance with Jacob because she wanted to arrange double dates with Timothée.”
The insider shared, “Kenny’s house is where all the parties happen, there’s a lot of action there, so the four of them got close there,” the source expanded, revealing that “Kenny found out that we just hit it off with Jacob…there was chemistry.”
