Spotted in Venice: Kylie Jenner Just Wore Summer's Most Controversial Dress Trend
We approve.
It's shaping up to be a big summer weekend—Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos are reportedly tying the knot in Venice, Italy, and the guest list reads like a who's who of A-listers. With the energy of a royal wedding, celebrities are descending on the floating city dressed to impress, and if the early looks are any indication, we're in for a fashion-filled few days.
So far, one outfit has managed to grab our attention: Kylie Jenner's. Spotted boarding a boat on the Venetian canals, Jenner turned heads in a romantic mustard-yellow lace dress. The gown, which we suspect is vintage, features a delicate halter strap that wraps around her neck, a structured bustier bodice, and a peek of a peach lace-trimmed bra underneath—a styling detail that gives the piece a cool, undone edge.
