Kendall Jenner's Fair Isle sweater and black jeans are a Western take on a classic Christmas outfit.
The Kardashian/Jenner family is famous for many things, but their extravagant Christmas celebration is at the top of the list. Their annual holiday party features faux snow machines, custom-made designer gifts, and skin-tight velvets befitting a billionaire's Christmas.
Kendall Jenner's holiday party, however, is known as the more subdued sister of the group. In the latest issue of Architectural Digest, the supermodel gives a tour of her Spanish-style Los Angeles mansion. Like her fashion sense, Jenner's seasonal décor centers on vintage treasures rather than overt displays of wealth.
“All my life I've loved vintage when it comes to clothes and furniture,” she told the magazine. I'm usually drawn to things that look like they're about to fall apart. There's a sense of history and character.”
When it comes to interiors, that means vintage ornaments, rustic garlands, and subtle equestrian influences. When it comes to fashion, the Kardashian stars apply these same principles, often reaching for a Western “fit” that matches the androgynous aesthetic of their home.
“If I had a modern home, I might modernize it a little more,” Jenner says.
“Vintage is exactly what my house screams.”
For the AD photo shoot, Jenner chose an outfit that embodied this same vibe. A simple blue button-down and a retro Fair Isle sweater. Leaning toward her signature tomboy look, Jenner styled it with black wash straight leg jeans and a matching leather belt. It was a stark contrast to the curve-hugging leather dress Kim Kardashian wore to the SKIMS holiday party last weekend.
Her intricate sweater is a holiday favorite among Hollywood street style stars. Last weekend, Jennifer Lopez paired a Fair Isle cardigan with light-wash jeans, adding a luxe touch to Jenner's classic combination. The week before that, Sydney Sweeney wore two different Fair Isle sweaters (Gucci and Celine) in a 24-hour period, both paired with pants like Jenner.
The Fair Isle sweater is a classic item that never goes out of style. Shop for gifts like Jenner's in similar styles.
