Kylie Jenner Dons gold dress with Yeezy slides showing pedicure – Footwear News


Kylie Jenner went for gold with her latest outfit.

The 22-year-old cosmetic mogul posed on Instagram yesterday in a sparkly gold midi dress. The piece boasted a high slit and gathered details around the bodice. The dress came from Lapointe’s Fall ’20 collection.

For the shoe, the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star searched for Yeezy’s slides. At a retail price of $ 55 in adult sizes, Yeezy slides feature a classic slip-on silhouette and are made from injected EVA foam, with a soft overlay on the footbed that adds extra cushioning. Sliding outsoles are strategically placed in the groove for comfort and traction. The open toe style was perfect for showing Jenner’s pedicure, a bold neon yellow color. She wore her hair in a Rapunzel-style braid and accessories with gold jewelry.

While Jenner’s Yeezy slides added a sleek, sporty finish to her look, the silhouette has been the subject of some controversy in the past, and netizens compared it to everything from Play-Doh to imitating Crocs and a potato. Furthermore, even Snoop Dogg disagreed with the style, writing in an October 2019 Instagram comment that the slides looked like jail slippers. Regardless of any criticism, Yeezy’s slides sold out at retail and are now trading for around $ 200 on StockX.com.

Regarding the typical Jenner style, she can often be found in couture outfits from brands like Bottega Veneta, Versace, Alexander Wang and Balenciaga. When it comes to shoes specifically, the A-lister has an impressive collection of heels from high-end brands like Stuart Weitzman, Amina Muaddi and Gianvito Rossi. Plus, her wardrobe includes some more affordable shoe options, like Nike sneakers, as well as many Yeezy styles, which isn’t surprising given that brother-in-law Kanye West is the brand’s designer.

It’s no surprise that Jenner has a closet full of designer rags. After all, the “It” girl is worth just under $ 900 million, according to an estimate by Forbes. She closed a deal with Coty in 2019, giving the company a 51% stake in its Kylie Cosmetics label for $ 600 million, a $ 1.2 billion valuation from the makeup brand. While Jenner was previously considered by Forbes To be a billionaire, Money magazine has lowered its status in light of the pandemic and alleged discrepancies in financial reporting.
