As ever, she made sure one of her many enviable body parts was on show and this time, it was her pancake-flat torso that stole the limelight.
She donned a very short black crop top with a mesh-style overlay and transparent edging, giving a cheeky glimpse of her braless cleavage.
The item was paired with a hugely flowing, oversized skirt in the same fabric and design, hints of her endless legs showing through the swathes of net.
As one of the fashion world's hottest up-and-coming models, Kendall really proved herself as she cut an impeccable figure on the red carpet at the Grand Theatre Lumiere at the Palais des Festivals.
