Kylie Jenner once again drew attention at the Kardashian-Jenner family’s annual Christmas Eve party, but this year she surprised fans with an unexpected fashion choice. Instead of traditional holiday colors like red, green, or gold, Kylie chose a striking black-and-white gown by designer John Galliano for the 2025 celebration.
Photos on her Instagram showed Kylie in a fitted dress that highlighted her bold style. She paired the look with an elegant updo and dramatic makeup, giving the outfit a high-fashion edge instead of a festive feel. The choice stood out even more because last year, at the 2024 Christmas Eve party, Kylie wore a glamorous white sequin gown that matched the holiday mood. This year’s look proved she prefers to set her own rules in fashion.
While Kylie shared several photos from the party, her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, did not appear in any of them. However, her sister Kendall Jenner was seen alongside her, continuing their tradition of making stylish appearances together at family events.
Earlier this month, Kylie and Timothée caught attention for their coordinated outfits during his press tour for the film Marty Supreme. On December 8, the couple appeared at the Los Angeles premiere in matching orange Chrome Hearts looks. Shortly after, they were photographed separately in bold cherry-red outfits, fueling interest in their shared fashion moments.
Despite curiosity about her personal life, Kylie has explained why she keeps relationships private. She said outside opinions can make decisions difficult and that keeping some things to herself helps her stay grounded.
When it comes to fashion, however, Kylie is more open. She has shared that she does not see her style as “quiet luxury.” Instead, she describes it as experimental and rooted in what she calls a “dark feminine” aesthetic. She believes her evolving confidence has played a big role in this shift.
Kylie has also spoken about how motherhood influenced her fashion journey. After gaining weight during her pregnancies, it took time for her to feel comfortable in her body again. Now, at 27, she says she feels more confident and more herself than ever.
Her black-and-white Galliano dress at the 2025 Christmas Eve party reflected that confidence perfectly: bold, unexpected, and completely her own.
