Kylie Jenner arrived at the Palm Springs International Film Festival gala in a show-stopping orange gown, sharing the evening with boyfriend Timothée Chalamet as he accepted a major acting honor. The couple kept a low profile but delivered high-fashion moments and a flurry of social-media reactions.
How Kylie’s orange gown stole the spotlight
For the gala, Jenner chose a bedazzled creation by Ludovic de Saint Sernin. The design combined a sculpted bodice with a form-fitting skirt and a daring high slit.

She finished the look with understated yet luxe touches. Her nails matched the dress. Nude heels lengthened her silhouette. Diamond studs and a pinky ring added sparkle.
Timothée Chalamet’s night: award, attire and nods to the film
Chalamet was on hand to receive the Spotlight Actor of the Year prize for his role in Josh Safdie’s film, Marty Supreme. He opted for a retro brown suit that echoed the film’s mood more than standard black-tie fare.
The couple’s outfits appeared in dialogue: Kylie’s bold orange may have been a quiet reference to the film’s aesthetic and the evening’s spotlight on Chalamet.
The couple’s low-key arrival and red-carpet choice
Despite their public profiles, Jenner and Chalamet skipped the formal red carpet. Sources say they slipped into the venue to avoid fanfare. Their decision minimized cameras, but it did not dim their impact once inside.
Instagram reaction: orange hearts, likes and poolside photos
After the gala, Jenner posted close-up shots of her makeup and outfit. Chalamet reacted publicly:
- He “liked” the post.
- He left several orange heart emojis in the comments.
Earlier that day, Jenner shared additional images taken poolside in a tiny gold bikini. The photos drew massive engagement, pulling in nearly 3 million likes and a flood of praise from fans.
Jenner even playfully admired herself in the comments, writing, “ur so hot.” The snaps look to have been made at a La Quinta residence tied to her or her family.
What the outing signals for their relationship
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet were first linked in April 2023. Since then, their public appearances have been selective but increasingly intimate. Chalamet’s participation in a Kardashian-Jenner holiday tradition hinted at growing closeness.
The Palm Springs gala illustrated how the pair balance private moments and public style statements. Fans continue to watch how their relationship unfolds alongside new film projects and business ventures.
