Kendall and Kylie Jenner Step Out in Eye-Catching Gowns Ahead of Jeff Bezos's Venice Wedding
THE RUNDOWN
Kylie and Kendall Jenner brought summer's brightest hues to Venice, Italy, as they joined their sisters Kim and Khloé Kardashian ahead of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding this weekend.
The two stars wore warm-toned, formfitting gowns while boarding a taxi boat by the Gritti Palace hotel today. Kylie stood out in a gold lace look with her hair styled down in waves. Kendall, meanwhile, chose a stunning pink floral halter dress from Roberto Cavalli's spring 2002 collection.
Back in 2001, Kate Beckinsale wore the same Roberto Cavalli look to the My VH1 Music Awards:
This marks Kendall and Kylie's first big appearance together since the Met Gala. There, they posed on the red carpet separately, Kylie in a Ferragamo corset dress and Kendall in a custom Torishéju skirt suit:
Neither Kylie's boyfriend of two years, Timothée Chalamet, nor Kendall Jenner's rumored partner, Devin Booker, were photographed alongside them in Venice. Kim and Khloé Kardashian were spotted earlier with the sisters' mother, Kris Jenner.
Kendall and Kylie's dresses mark two of their boldest looks all year.
Back in the fall, Kylie spoke to ELLE about her fashion evolution. She doesn't see herself as a minimalist. 'I think I'm actually going in the opposite direction,' she said. 'I've definitely had some moments of quiet luxury, as they would say, but I'm always experimenting. At the root of my authentic style, I think I'm more dark feminine.'
Her change in style is due to the fact that 'I haven't had a baby in a few years,' Kylie said. 'The first part of my twenties was having children, learning what my personal style was and then losing it—not knowing how to dress, gaining 60 pounds for both pregnancies. It took me a year to feel like myself again. At 27, I feel more confident and more like myself than ever.'

Vogue editor Anna Wintour makes pop culture chic: A look back at the fashion icon's impact
Anna Wintour isn't just a face behind the pages of Vogue magazine. She is a paragon of glamour herself. The famed editor-in-chief, who's served at the helm of American Vogue since 1988, is stepping down as the magazine's head of editorial content, as part of a modified organizational structure the Condé Nast publication adopted four years ago. Wintour will stay on as Condé Nast's chief content officer and Vogue's global editorial director. Wintour, known for her stern management style and iconic A-frame bob, helped redefine the landscape of celebrity fashion, thanks in part to her bold cover portraits for Vogue (Wintour's first issue featured Israeli model Michaela Bercu in a casual look that included a $50 pair of faded jeans.) Over the years, Wintour spotlighted a range of A-list talent, from pop stars Madonna and Britney Spears to supermodel Naomi Campbell and former first lady Michelle Obama. The style maven also helped transform the Met Gala, an haute couture fundraiser for The Metropolitan Museum of Art, into a viral, star-studded extravaganza that draws buzz from fashionistas, celebrities and social media onlookers alike. Here's a look back at Wintour's indelible mark on the fashion world and beyond. Anna Wintour leaves Vogue: Media executive steps down as magazine's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour makes Met Gala 'hip' celebrity shindig The 1995 Met Gala was Wintour's first time in charge of the event, but it didn't become her permanent "Party of the Year" until 1999. "It was the flashiest and most shocking party the Met had ever thrown," fashion journalist and author Amy Odell wrote in 2022's "Anna: The Biography." Wintour had "cracked off the shellac and unleashed the future's much more hip possibilities." It's no secret that Wintour has a heavy hand in curating the gala's details, as previously cataloged in 2016's "The First Monday in May" documentary. Wintour, along with museum curators and close friend Tom Ford, orchestrates every detail, including the dress code, food and seating arrangements. In recent years, the Met Gala has hosted epic fashion moments from the likes of Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Zendaya, Jared Leto and Bad Bunny with head-turning themes that explore multiculturalism, nature and fashion history. Even with all the celebrity wattage, West Coast Vogue contributor Lisa Love detailed to Odell some of the intricacies Anna would "fuss about" during the event. "When Kim Kardashian wore a custom latex Thierry Mugler dress that redefined tight to the camp themed party in 2019, Anna kept saying to Lisa Love, 'Can you please tell her to sit down?'" Odell wrote. "Love had to explain that, actually Kardashian physically couldn't sit." Who is Anna Wintour? What to know about longtime Vogue chief Anna Wintour reportedly inspires 'The Devil Wears Prada' book, film "The Devil Wears Prada," a 2003 novel written by Wintour's former assistant Lauren Weisberger, tells the story of aspiring magazine writer Andrea Sachs, who finds herself working for the icy Miranda Priestly, a high-powered editor of a top fashion publication. The book became a New York Times bestseller and spawned two sequels, 2013's "Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns" and 2018's "When Life Gives You Lululemons." In an interview with Random House, Weisberger — who didn't name Wintour as a direct inspiration — said while she didn't set out to write a "'boss from hell' story," some of the anecdotes featured in the novel "aren't so far away from the tasks either I or my friends in various industries ... went through our first few years out of college." At the time of the book's release, Wintour told The New York Times: "I always enjoy a great piece of fiction. I haven't decided whether I am going to read it or not." Weisberger's alleged insider portrait of Wintour hit the big screen in 2006 with a film adaptation that starred Anne Hathaway as Sachs and Meryl Streep as Priestly. The Oscar-nominated dramedy grossed $326.7 million worldwide. Wintour has since appeared to give her seal of approval to Weisberger's high- fashion tale. In December 2024, the Vogue editor was spotted attending the London premiere of "The Devil Wears Prada" musical, a theatrical reimagining of the film with music by Elton John. Anna Wintour becomes musical muse for Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, more Wintour's fashion empire has served as lyrical fodder for some of the biggest names in music. The magazine magnate has been referenced or name-dropped in songs from the likes of Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Bad Bunny and others. On 2009's "Empire State of Mind," Jay-Z delivers the pun: "Caught up in the in-crowd, now you're in-style / Into the winter gets cold, en vogue with your skin out." Minaj gave shout-outs to Wintour on her songs "Muny" and "Come on a Cone," while fellow rapper Azealia Banks named her 2018 single "Anna Wintour" after the iconic editor. Rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, referenced Wintour as a symbol of his industry status on 2012's "Cold": "Dinner with Anna Wintour / racing with Anja Rubik / I told you ... it was more than the music." More recently, reggaeton superstar Bad Bunny name-checked Wintour's Vogue on the 2023 track "VOU 787." 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Anna Wintour shaped next generation of fashion with allyship Wintour is just as invested in the future of fashion as she is in capturing the best looks for the covers of Vogue. Throughout her career, the media executive has lent financial and social support to emerging designers, such as British designer John Galliano. Wintour secured financial backing for Galliano's eponymous fashion label, which helped his 1997 ascent to designer-in-chief at Christian Dior. Wintour also patronized the works of designers Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs. In 2003, Wintour and the Council of Fashion Designers of America established the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, which provided financial support and business mentoring to up-and-coming designers. "Anna's been so supportive all through my highs and my lows," Galliano said at the 2014 British Fashion Awards, per The Cut. "She reached out to me when I had become an outcast with almost daily phone calls, inspiration, encouragement and really practical help." He added: "There are really no words to adequately express my gratitude to Anna for all that she has done and continues to do, for me and for our industry and for the future."

Anna Wintour is stepping down as the editor in chief of Vogue. These are the moments that turned her into a pop culture icon.
After 37 years as Vogue's editor in chief, Anna Wintour is officially stepping down. The fashion icon is not retiring altogether; instead, she will remain on as the publisher's global chief content officer as well as Vogue's global editorial director, per CNN. It is, nonetheless, the end of an era — one marked by Met Galas, groundbreaking (and sometimes controversial) magazine covers, and moments that cemented the EIC's place in pop culture history. From being dubbed 'Nuclear Wintour' by tabloids in the '90s for her icy management style to inspiring one of Meryl Streep's most famous roles, Wintour's reign at Vogue has shaped not only fashion but how the world views it. Prior to her reign as editor in chief of Vogue, Wintour worked across different magazines at Condé Nast, including House & Garden and the U.K. edition of Vogue. It was during her time at the U.K. fashion magazine, where she replaced beloved editor Bea Miller, that British tabloids gave her the titles 'Nuclear Wintour' and 'Wintour of Our Discontent' — nods to her reputation for being cold, demanding and unapologetically tough on her staff. In 1997, the British-born Wintour pushed back against the nicknames in a piece for the Guardian, writing that while journalists portrayed her as a 'wicked woman of steel,' she only recalled letting go of 'two or three' employees during her time at the magazine. 'There was a cozy but mildly eccentric atmosphere at British Vogue, which, after my time in New York, struck me as out of date,' Wintour recalled. 'It also seemed out of step with the fast developing social and political changes that were thundering through Britain in the eighties, under Margaret Thatcher. I felt the cozy approach was not responsive to intelligent women's changing lives. So I decided to infuse the magazine with a bit of American worldliness, even toughness.' While Wintour may not have appreciated the nicknames nor agreed with their accuracy, it's clear that her tough-as-nails reputation solidified a certain image of the ice queen fashion editor — an image that Wintour would carry with her throughout her career. In 1988, Wintour debuted her first cover of Vogue — and it shocked the fashion world. Model Michaela Bercu wore a $10,000 Christian Lacroix couture jacket with a bejeweled cross along with $50 Guess jeans, photographed outside in natural light. The casual tone of the photo was a stark change for the magazine; even Wintour herself didn't initially expect to run the photo on the cover. 'It was so unlike the studied and elegant close-ups that were typical of Vogue's covers back then, with tons of makeup and major jewelry,' Wintour wrote of the cover in a 2012 Vogue piece, adding that the photo 'broke all the rules.' The model 'wasn't looking at you, and worse, she had her eyes almost closed,' Wintour explained. 'Her hair was blowing across her face. It looked easy, casual, a moment that had been snapped on the street, which it had been, and which was the whole point.' Wintour said that the cover led to all sorts of incorrect interpretations, including that it was some sort of 'religious statement.' None were true. Instead, she wrote, 'I had just looked at that picture and sensed the winds of change. And you can't ask for more from a cover image than that.' In 2006, The Devil Wears Prada, a novel written by former Wintour assistant Lauren Weisberger, was adapted into a movie starring Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep. Immediately, people assumed that Streep's character Miranda Priestly — EIC of the fictional Runway magazine — was a thinly veiled caricature of Wintour. Wintour has not said much publicly about the portrayal of Priestly, an icy, calculating and wildly demanding boss. In fact, Anna: The Biography author Amy Odell wrote that when the EIC learned that Weisberger had sold The Devil Wears Prada, 'she said to [managing editor Laurie] Jones, 'I cannot remember who that girl is,'' per Entertainment Weekly. Recently, the film — for which a sequel is in the works — received a West End musical adaptation, which Wintour attended in December 2024. Speaking to the BBC after the show, she said it is 'for the audience and for the people I work with to decide if there are any similarities between me and Miranda Priestly.' The Devil Wears Prada is not the only piece of pop culture to apparently pay tribute to the famed fashionista. She was also parodied on the show Ugly Betty with the character Fey Sommers. Interpretations of Wintour, always with her signature giant sunglasses, have also been seen on Saturday Night Live and The Simpsons. Wintour also appeared as herself in 2018's Ocean's 8, which was about a group of women pulling off a heist at the Met Gala. In 2009, R.J. Cutler's documentary The September Issue followed Wintour as she and her team crafted the September 2007 edition of Vogue — at the time, the largest issue to date. It peeled back the curtain on working for Wintour, revealing her exacting standards and intense leadership style at the center of the high-pressure world of fashion publishing. In a review of the documentary by Roger Ebert, the late film critic wrote, 'There cannot have been a page she wasn't involved with. This seems to be a woman who is concerned with one thing above all: The implementation of her opinion.' Fashion's biggest night wouldn't be quite the same without the influence of Wintour. In 1995, she took over as chair of the Met Gala, transforming the annual fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute from a modest society dinner into a global pop culture phenomenon. Wintour revamped the guest list, inviting A-list celebrities, designers, models and entertainment industry power players. This coincided with the rise of the celebrity stylist, putting these behind-the-scenes fashion players on display just as much as the stars wearing their outfits. Wintour helped elevate pop culture icons like Rihanna, whose outfit choices have become among the most anticipated on the red carpet. In 2015, Wintour made headlines with the Met Gala once again. 'China: Through the Looking Glass' was one of the most attended exhibitions — but also a highly controversial one, as Wintour and her team were accused of promoting appropriation and showing Eastern culture through a Western lens. Still, the Met Gala has continued to push cultural conversation forward, as it did this year with its theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,' which spotlighted Black designers and Black identity. In May, Wintour told E! News of the exhibit, 'It's about optimism and hope and community. I hope that many, many people come and see it.'
