Kylie Jenner Impresses Timothée Chalamet In Black Backless Dress

Kylie Jenner turned up the heat for a date night with her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, proving once again that the little black dress is the ultimate timeless staple!

The Kylie Cosmetics mogul attended the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Feb. 11, where Chalamet was honored with the Arlington Artist Award—bringing her signature mix of elegance and edge to the occasion.

For the evening, Jenner opted for a daring sleeveless black cocktail dress by Alaïa. The figure-hugging number featured a dramatic plunging U-shaped neckline, putting her cleavage on full display. But the real showstopper? The backless silhouette, which exposed just the right amount of sideboob, added a sultry touch to the look. The dress clung to her curves in true Alaïa fashion, cascading into a long train that trailed behind her with every step.

Jenner kept her accessories sleek and sophisticated, stacking silver statement earrings and sporting two massive diamond rings. She styled her jet-black hair in loose, voluminous curls and kept her makeup understated, complementing her monochrome look with a soft pink manicure.

Though Chalamet walked the red carpet solo, he and Jenner reunited inside the venue for the celebration. While the couple keeps their relationship mostly private, fans have been keeping a close eye on their stylish outings. On Feb. 12, Jenner shared highlights from the night on Instagram, cheekily captioning her post, “Sprinted too hard last night”—a nod to her vodka soda brand, Sprinter.

This isn’t the first time Jenner has turned heads in a sultry black ensemble for a night out with Chalamet. Just last month, the duo made a rare public appearance in Paris, where Jenner rocked an all-black halter catsuit with a plunging neckline reminiscent of her Alaïa dress. Meanwhile, Chalamet made headlines of his own by styling a skinny pink belt from Bibi Star as a scarf, proving that their fashion choices are just as buzzworthy as their relationship.

With awards season in full swing, fans are hoping to see the stylish couple make an appearance at the Oscars. If their past date-night looks are any indication, Jenner and Chalamet are sure to deliver another unforgettable fashion moment.

The couple has been making waves on the film festival and awards show circuit for over a year. At the 2024 Golden Globes, Chalamet broke traditional menswear norms by sporting a sparkly Celine Homme by Hedi Slimane ensemble paired with stunning diamond Cartier jewelry. His bold fashion choice was a hit with both the audience and Jenner.

The reality star bypassed the red carpet and joined Chalamet inside the ceremony, where footage from the Globes live feed captured her playfully toying with his luxurious accessories. Throughout the evening, the couple was seen whispering to each other and exchanging quick kisses.
