Once a baddie, always a baddie.
Kylie Jenner may be keeping mum about her relationship with Timothée Chalamet, but she’s not afraid to hit back at theories that she’s dressing more demure since snagging an Oscar-nominated boyfriend.
In her new Dazed cover story, the reality star, 27, denied switching up her style for Chalamet’s sake. When asked if fans should be “mourning a baddie,” she answered, “That’s so funny, I’ve seen that before too, and I’m always like, first of all, the baddie never left.”
“I wear a latex dress at least once a week. Like, where do you guys think the baddie went?” she asked. “People saw me in a flowy dress once in my life, and they were like, ‘She’s gone!’ I wore a sundress once in Palm Springs, you know – like, can a girl wear a sundress once?”
The Kylie Cosmetics founder joked she was “taking a break from slaying” in 2023 after fans noticed she was dialing back her glam.
Paige DeSorbo even took a swing during a “Giggly Squad” podcast episode, saying, “I do want to say about the Kardashians, every boyfriend they get, they take — they start to look like them. It’s like one of the weirdest things.”
The “Summer House” star likened the phenomenon to “when dogs start to look like their owners.”
That same year, Jenner was also compared to Sofia Richie and her “quiet luxury” sensibility after the makeup mogul wore a parade of ladylike outfits while on a European vacation.
In a 2024 New York Times interview, Jenner acknowledged she was “stripping down a little bit” when it came to her style.
“I don’t have this thick mane down to my butt, I don’t have lash extensions, I don’t have these long claws,” she said.
But when asked if it had to do directly with Chalamet, she responded cagily, “I don’t know how I feel about that. I just don’t want to talk about personal things.”
In another interview, Jenner said she’s simply grown out of the “King Kylie” aesthetic of her teen years as she’s come into her own as a mother of two.
“That era will always be a part of who I am, but it’ll never be what it was when I was younger. I probably would never wear lash extensions and thick eyebrows 1748667246. There are just certain trends that I’ve grown out of,” she told Elle last year.
“I’ve definitely had some moments of quiet luxury, as they would say, but I’m always experimenting. At the root of my authentic style, I think I’m more dark feminine.”
Jenner recently told Harper’s Bazaar she wore all black throughout awards season to avoid taking attention away from Chalamet and his nominated projects.
And she’s more conscious of flaunting her curves these days, revealing in an episode of “The Kardashians” that she worried the plunging vintage Versace dress she wore to the 2025 Golden Globes was a tad too revealing.
Still, judging by their recent series of courtside looks, it would appear Kylie and Timmy are in perfect style sync.
