Kendall Jenner channels flapper-girl flirtatiousness in a plunging neckline in futuristic silver, a panel of gorgeously fluffy ostrich feathers revealing a sheer skirt underneath.

The high-belted silver trouser suit is a stunning highlight of the collection; embellished in gemstones in a starburst pattern, with a slightly flared sleeve, trouser leg and jacket, it somehow retains a very Chanel-coded elegance despite the outrageous amount of bling.

We’re loving the liberal volumes of feather plumes here. The baby-pink ostrich feather sleeves and dress hem bounce along beautifully when the model walks. This flourish paired with the almost abstract simplicity of the textured silver tube dress is a winning combination.
