Kylie Jenner turned heads at the 2025 Golden Globes by reviving a vintage Elizabeth Hurley look with her modern flair.
The business mogul arrived at the ceremony in a shimmering silver chainmail gown by Atelier Versace. The dress was originally from the designer’s spring 1999 collection.
KYLIE JENNER PAYS HOMAGE TO ELIZABETH HURLEY
The dress was a near replica of Hurley’s iconic lilac version, which she famously wore to the CFDA Awards in 1999 with Hugh Grant, according to BuzzFeed.
Jenner’s look was styled by Alexandra and Mackenzie Grandquist. It featured a plunging neckline and a daringly low back.
She kept her accessories minimal, taking a page from Hurley’s book, and wore chunky stud earrings. They wore oversized diamond rings by Lorraine Schwartz.
KYLIE JENNER AND TIMOTHÉE
A fan on X (formerly Twitter) gushed, “Kylie Jenner channelling Elizabeth Hurley? It’s giving ’90s royalty with a modern twist. #Iconic.”
The evening wasn’t just about fashion for Jenner. She attended the event to support her boyfriend of two years, actor Timothée Chalamet, according to Page Six.
Chalamet received a nomination for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown.
HOLLYWOOD POWER COUPLE
The Hollywood power couple exuded glamour, with Chalamet making his statement in a custom Tom Ford outfit.
His tailored black suit was complemented by a white striped shirt and a blue polka-dot scarf.
The ensemble marked a debut for Tom Ford’s new creative director, Haider Ackermann, who is also a favourite of both Jenner and Chalamet.
Kylie Jenner’s red carpet absence added intrigue. She skipped the press frenzy outside and headed straight to her seat inside.
KYLIE JENNER ENJOYS THE GOLDEN GLOBES
She sat with Chalamet and his A Complete Unknown co-stars Elle Fanning and Monica Barbaro, according to People.
Kylie Jenner continued to support Chalamet by taking photos of him and snapping selfies with Fanning and Barbaro during the show.
This isn’t the first time Jenner has paid homage to Hurley.
Last year, she turned up at the Golden Globes in a black lace catsuit. The catsuit was reminiscent of Hurley’s outfit from Elizabeth Taylor’s 1997 Happy Birthday Elizabeth: A Celebration of Life special.
TIMELESS ALLURE
One fan noted, “Kylie Jenner is inspired by Liz Hurley’s iconic ’90s style. It’s such a fun tribute!”
The couple’s PDA also drew attention. Jenner was seen beaming at Chalamet, capturing tender moments between the pair.
Fans on social media couldn’t get enough. One wrote, “Kylie and Timothée are giving us serious couple goals. The love, the style, the vibes – all flawless!”
For South African fans, Jenner’s homage to Hurley is a nod to the timeless allure of vintage fashion.
Chainmail designs have been making a resurgence globally, with many local designers incorporating similar metallic styles into their collections.
AWARDS SEASON
And while Kylie Jenner’s accessories might be out of budget for most (her jewellery reportedly costs millions), South African jewellers offer affordable alternatives that can replicate the star’s sparkle.
With awards season in full swing, all eyes are on Jenner and Chalamet. Will they continue to deliver show-stopping looks?
VINTAGE FASHION
South Africans, ever inspired by international trends, will surely be watching. As one local fan said on X, “Kylie’s style is proof that vintage never goes out of fashion!”
At the Golden Globes, Jenner didn’t just revive a dress; she rekindled an era. The ’90s are alive and well – with a Kylie twist.
