    Jenner has been leaning into various 2024 summer trends lately, including the throwback trend of reviving old but timeless looks. Not only did she recently elevate the simple black dress by going backless, she was also spotted reviving the little white dress during a recent girls' night out.

    On June 8, while celebrating BFF Anastasia Karanikolaou's birthday, Jenner wore a form-fitting miniature white dress by Defaïence, featuring ruching details and an asymmetrical cut.

    She completed her night-out look with a pair of yellow, open-toed strappy sandals and a knee-high black leather jacket.
