It girls, supermodels, and best friends Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber made a joint appearance Sunday night at the 2023 Academy Museum Gala.
The two posed together on the red carpet at the Los Angeles museum—each woman wearing a stunning floor-length gown that perfectly embodied her personal style.
Jenner was pure sophistication in a vibrant red long-sleeved turtleneck gown. The piece, pulled from Fendi’s Fall/Winter 2023 couture collection, featured a bandagelike bodice that cinched her at the waist like a corset. Jenner wore the gown with no bra underneath, and styled it simply with strappy red sandals and small silver hoop earrings. Her makeup was glowy and included a glossy pink lip, and she wore her hair in a messy, straight ’do.
Bieber put a red carpet spin on her signature look, which often includes a little black dress and slicked-back hair. The Rhode founder chose a sequin halterneck gown from Saint Laurent, which she wore only with black sandals and large diamond drop earrings. Her makeup was glazed-doughnut glowy, and she added some edge with a subtle cat eye, painted-on freckles, and a black manicure. Her hair was slicked back into a neat ballerina bun.
Some of the biggest stars in music, film, and fashion walked the red and pink carpet at the gala to celebrate the movie industry in the wake of the SAG-AFTRA strike. And apart from the great fashion, four groundbreaking Hollywood figures were honored at the event for their contributions to the industry: Meryl Streep, Michael B. Jordan, Oprah Winfrey, and Sofia Coppola.
