Kendall Jenner Just Brought Back Knee-High Gladiators in Paris

When it comes to reviving old trends, it seems no stone is left unturned at this point. Shoulder pads, bike shorts, fanny packs, the list goes on and on. Such is the case with gladiators, it seems. Kendall Jenner was spotted stepping out of a cab in Paris wearing none other than knee-high gladiator sandals, pairing the statement shoes with a '70s-inspired lace-up, fringe minidress.
The look was similar to her ensemble that she wore to the S/S 19 Longchamp show in New York earlier in the week, when she styled a purple suede minidress with her gladiators for the front row (both designed by Longchamp). Jenner partnered with the iconic brand with a stunning campaign honoring its 70th anniversary, including a short film, #TheEncounter, featuring a horse and the model in Paris.
So does this mean a return to the gladiator trend? We'll have to wait until next spring to find out for sure. In the meantime, scroll down to see the look and head over to shop our favorite ankle boots for fall.
