Jenner arrived at the event sporting a glistening mesh backless La Perla gown (she’s an ambassador for the brand) with a dramatic front cut-out, which was sheer enough to reveal a black bodysuit underneath, along with her nearly naked backside. She paired the ensemble with matching black mesh pumps. The custom La Perla design features 85,000 hand-painted crystals and took over 160 hours to make, spanning 5 cities and 26 craftsmen, according to the brand.

For her makeup, Jenner went with a subtle smoky eye and a bold lip, while her brown lob was tousled and parted to the side. FROM COINAGE: Why Does Chardonnay Cost So Much?
