Kendall Jenner Is Not Wearing Nipple Pasties in These Pics

Is Kendall Jenner wearing what I think she's wearing here?

As it turns out, no. At first glance, Jenner appears to be wearing some type of novelty nipple pasties in the pics she uploaded to her Instagram Stories on May 31. (Cocktail umbrellas, maybe?) But if you look a little more closely, you can see that it's all just a part of her dress's optical-illusion design.

Jenner's Stories begin with a video of her posing for a photographer on the deck of a yacht at night, then cutting to stills of the photos themselves. The model wears a skintight black dress that seems to cut off right under her bust, with bright red flower decals covering her nipples. In the pics, you can see that the dress has a sheer nude bodice to which the floral embellishments are attached. Really leaning into the whole burlesque vibes, she paired the risqué mini with an extra-long red skinny scarf and a pair of black slingback pumps from Bottega Veneta.

In the post Jenner tagged her stylist, Dani Michelle, as well as the dress's designer, David Koma. And it's not the first time she's stepped out in one of the brand's nearly naked dresses. In 2019 the supermodel stunned in a David Koma nude minidress, per Harper's Bazaar, which was fringed with tinsel for a tiny bit of flare. And in 2016, via PopSugar, she was seen in an upper-thigh-baring David Koma skirt.

I suppose when you're Kendall Jenner, less is always more with fashion.
