At this point in her dressing journey, there's very little Kendall Jenner could wear that would genuinely shock us. Think about it this way: She's worn a tiny string bikini with furry boots in a snow-covered field, a completely sideless gown by Rami Kadi to the 2019 Oscar's after-party, and tights as pants on a number of occasions now. In other words, Jenner doesn't exactly dress for the faint of heart. Yet even I was surprised when I scrolled through her latest Instagram slideshow, captioned "31 hours," to find the model wearing not just a thong bikini but one with an almost nonexistent G-string, and even stranger, I was into the look.
The floss-like thong bikini has been met with its fair share of controversial opinions online, but then again, so have most of Jenner's more risqué looks in the past. What hasn't, however, is the Marni S/S 23 dress that she also featured in the photo dump, which looked shockingly pretty, especially given the time of day when she wore it. Jenner can be seen dancing on the beach in the dress, which features extra-long sleeves and a sunset-like pattern, right at daybreak, making the colors pop perfectly. She also showcased a higher-coverage (kind of) bikini from Heavy Manners, one of the swimwear brands she goes back to again and again.
Below, scroll through the entire slideshow to see Jenner's controversial and not-so-controversial vacation looks.
