Kris Jenner is throwing it back to the 1980s \u2014\u00a0again! <\/p>\n
The momager made a rare red carpet appearance on Tuesday night with daughter, Kendall, as her date at the 20th anniversary L\u2019Or\u00e9al Paris Women of Worth event in LA.<\/p>\n
Wearing a shade of red as bold as the beauty giant\u2019s iconic lipstick, Kris wowed in a strapless red Valentino gown with a black bow at the front and back. She wore a black tuxedo blazer over the dress, giving the design a more modern flair.<\/p>\n
However, Jenner\u2019s gown wasn\u2019t just any old Valentino item. It was a re-creation of a dress she owned in 1985, revived in 2022 by designer Pierpaolo Piccioli during his tenure at the helm of the French fashion house.<\/p>\n

The oversized images part to reveal Kris in the present, wearing an identical gown.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s aging in reverse,\u201d writes one follower. Another shares the sentiment, commenting, \u201cAn iconic princess.\u201d<\/p>\n Just last week, Kris wore a vintage power suit<\/a> from 1988, following the lead of her daughter, Kim Kardashian, who not only wears vintage on the regular<\/a>, but was recently slammed for wearing an iconic Alexander McQueen gown in the<\/a> ocean.<\/p>\n Kris\u2019 original Valentino gown was designed for the house\u2019s Haute Couture spring 1985 collection. It was revived in 2022 as part of a celebration of Valentino Garavani\u2019s 90th year with a Valentino Vintage Project exhibition and a book, celebrating the vibrant red hue that is so iconic of the brand.<\/p>\n Kris first showed a photo of her original dress alongside a sketch of the recreated look. ash_kholm\/Instagram<\/p>\n The momager posted an unboxing video of the dress back in 2022. krisjenner\/Instagram<\/p>\n Kris saw that sentimental dress pop up on her Instagram feed, and was compelled to reach out to Pierpaolo to ask if he could re-create the red gown for her.<\/p>\n While unboxing the gown on her feed, Kris shared, \u201cI\u2019m going to try to explain how much this package means to me, from Valentino.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt really touched my heart,\u201d she continued, \u201cbecause I used to have the same dress back in the \u201880s. And I reached out to Pierpaolo and asked him, \u2018Could you ever re-create this dress for me?\u2019 and he said, \u2018Absolutely!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt brought back so many amazing, amazing memories,\u201d Kris mused.<\/p>\n Though Instagram was certainly not a thing in 1985, the momager is using modern technology to ensure that the special dress gets as much exposure as possible, making its inaugural outing a red-letter day, for sure. <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t
