Kylie Jenner Snuck Into the Golden Globes in a Modern Version of Paris Hilton's Iconic Party Dress
For the second year in a row, Kylie Jenner managed to sneak past the photographers outside the Golden Globes and into the award ceremony to accompany Timothée Chalamet for a star-studded night out. Last time around, she surprised the internet when she skipped the red carpet and showed up at Chalamet's table wearing a completely sheer vintage gown by Hanae Mori with a low, ruffled back and long sleeves. This year, she followed suit with an even bolder and, dare I say, iconic ensemble.
Though no full-body photos have surfaced of Jenner's look at this year's Golden Globes (yet!), we have secured a few angles of her dress in candid photos of her sitting with Chalamet as well as group shots with his A Complete Unknown co-stars Monica Barbaro and Elle Fanning, both of whom also sat at their table, and Fanning's sister Dakota. The Kylie Cosmetics founder chose a vintage chain mail like dress with thin straps, a cowl neckline, and a low, scooped back that was decorated with what appears to be floral embroidery. She pulled it from Versace's archives, specifically the S/S 99 collection. It's even older than the dress it made me think of immediately—one worn over 20 years ago by another Hollywood sensation.
If our minds think alike, then you already know who wore it: Paris Hilton. The Julien Macdonald dress was worn to Hilton's 21st birthday party in London in May 2002 and featured the same cowl neckline, thin straps, and shockingly low back. It's hard to tell the length of Jenner's dress from the photos available, but if it turns out to be mini, then it truly is a perfect modernized take on Hilton's incredible Y2K party dress.
