Kendall Jenner’s Oscars After-Party Dress Is a Piece of Fashion History — See Photos

The vintage piece from Jean Paul Gaultier will surely ring a bell if you like Marion Cotillard.

It was a tremendous milestone for Marion Cotillard’s career when she won Best Actress for her portrayal of Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose at the 2008 Oscars. But the moment was made even more spectacular with her ivory haute couture gown by Jean Paul Gaultier, which was ornamented with meticulously beaded mermaid fish scales. Fast forward to today, and Kendall Jenner attended the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscars party in the exact same dress but in a shade from the opposite end of the color spectrum.

At the star-studded Hollywood bash, the 27-year-old model shut down the red carpet in an iteration of Cotillard’s dress from 2008. However, Kendall’s vintage Jean Paul Gaultier dress from the brand’s Spring/Summer 2008 haute couture collection was a shimmery golden bronze color. The model ensured the glittering dress was the focal point of her look by opting for classic black pumps and no jewelry.

While vintage fashion is having a big moment on the red carpet right now, Kendall has been collecting vintage JPG for quite some time. The model boasts some of the rarest pieces from the brand’s archives – most recently, a Venus De Milo halter neck dress from spring/summer 1999.
