Kylie Jenner’s Style Evolution, From Bras Over Tees to Armani Couture

Remember when, on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim was devastated that Kylie Jenner wasn’t showing her enough love on Tumblr? We would probably be questioning our cool factor, too, because the youngest Kardashian, seen on the cover of Paper magazine this month, has always had a distinct personal style.

As far back as 2005, she looked at ease in everything from a camo shirt with ruffled sleeves to bra vests over T-shirts, paving the way for her ability to oscillate between Armani couture and streetwear. The 18-year-old fashion rebel of the family, who has lines at Steve Madden and Topshop and a cult lip kit, knows how to keep both her career and wardrobe interesting. See all of Jenner’s best looks and shades of pastel hair (including the blue she fought to wear at the Kimye wedding), from the front row of Prabal Gurung to the streets of Los Angeles, in our slideshow ahead.
