Kendall Jenner Skips the Sabrina Carpenter Concert Dress Code for a Bomber Jacket and Leather Boots

In 2024, buying tickets to a major pop star's tour also means buying into their style universe. Going to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour all but requires a stack of beaded friendship bracelets; sweating at a Charli XCX concert isn't complete without a brat green outfit. But Kendall Jenner is not like other girls who go to concerts—and when she attended Sabrina Carpenter's Short 'N Sweet Tour in Los Angeles on Nov. 17, she didn't wear custom Victoria's Secret lingerie for the occasion.

Jenner dressed for "Girlie Night," as she dubbed the outing on Instagram Stories, in a going-out riff on her usual wardrobe staples. Instead of the bright pastels, lace, and rhinestones typical of Sabrina Carpenter's concert looks, the model instead chose a black leather bomber jacket by Phoebe Philo, a black mini skirt, and under-the-knee leather boots by The Row—in black, of course.

Jenner's concert outfit was an outlier in the sequin-coated arena. Even her close friend, Hailey Bieber, wore a lace top and visible bra in an homage to Carpenter's avant-bombshell lingerie. Then again, maybe Jenner's recent bob haircut and dark brown dye job are enough of a nod to "Espresso" to suffice.

After spending early fall with hair categorized as "rich-girl blonde," Kendall Jenner returned to her roots this November. Her return to brunette life has arrived with a range of streamlined minimalist outfits, including a under-$150 Reformation skirt paired to triple-layered tops, a bomber jacket and baseball cap, a sleek brown blazer for a FWRD holiday pop-up party, and now, her Sabrina Carpenter concert outfit. Maybe there's a lesson in Jenner's steadfast commitment to neutral shades and leather footwear: Skipping the dress code works when you're true to yourself.
