THE RUNDOWN<\/p>\n

Kendall Jenner didn\u2019t join Gigi and Bella Hadid on the runway of the 2025 Victoria\u2019s Secret Fashion Show.Jenner was last seen in Texas for an 818 Tequila event.The star doesn\u2019t do many runway shows now and recently spoke about wanting to explore home design as a career.<\/p>\n

Gigi<\/a> and Bella Hadid<\/a> were back on the Victoria\u2019s Secret Fashion Show<\/a> runway this evening, but one of their famous friends who modeled with them when they made their debuts about 10 years ago was missing. <\/p>\n

Kendall Jenner, who first walked the show in 2015, wasn\u2019t on the runway tonight or spotted in the audience. While she hasn\u2019t spoken about the event or her decision to miss it, she has made recent comments suggesting modeling isn\u2019t her main career focus.<\/p>\n

In fact, Jenner, who runs 818 Tequila<\/a>, was last seen in Texas this weekend for a brand event. The Dallas Observer<\/a> reported the model spent some time at Happiest Hour for a \u201cTailgate with 818\u201d party on October 11.<\/p>\n

She recently told Vogue<\/a> that she was considering doing just house design as a career. \u201cI swear to God, I\u2019m going to stop everything and just design homes,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m not kidding.\u201d<\/p>\n

She has also coped with anxiety before runway shows. In 2019, she told ELLE<\/a>, \u201cI used to get really nervous during fashion shows. I feel like when you\u2019re walking on the runway\u2014I say this from experience\u2014you\u2019re just thinking, \u2018Walk straight! Walk straight!\u2019\u2014and you try to just focus on that. Especially me, because I used to get really nervous when I knew people in the audience. I would try and force myself to zone out. But now, I\u2019m cool with it\u2014I\u2019ve actually gotten so much better at it that I like knowing who\u2019s there, and I\u2019ll kind of peek over to see who\u2019s in the audience before I come out. But it took a little while to get to that point.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jenner walked just one runway during Paris Fashion Week for L\u2019Or\u00e9al\u2019s Le D\u00e9fil\u00e9: A Celebration of Women\u2019s Empowerment. The event was on Sept. 29, 2025.<\/p>\n

She told ELLE UK<\/a> on October 10 that she was most excited to spend time with the brand\u2019s other ambassadors who modeled in the show. \u201cL\u2019Or\u00e9al has done such a good job of curating an incredible group of women, so I\u2019m grateful to be a part of that,\u201d she said. \u201cWe usually shoot separately, so to have this moment once a year where we all come together feels really special. I love being able to catch up with all of the women.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cThere\u2019s a sisterhood between all of us; all these women are really inspiring and you can feel it during the show too. I grew up with a ton of sisters, and this feels like an extension of that.\u201d <\/p>\n
