Kylie Jenner is facing another round of accusations that she’s copying her boyfriend Timothée Chalamet‘s ex, Lily-Rose Depp, after fans noticed some familiar details in her latest red-carpet appearance.
The reality star attended the annual LACMA Art+Film Gala on November 7 wearing a shiny, backless fawn-print gown from Saudi fashion label Ashi Studio. The striking design, taken from the brand’s Fall/Winter 2026 Couture collection, featured a fitted halter silhouette and a dramatic open back that flowed into a floor-length skirt.
The dress also featured an optical-illusion pattern in shades of cocoa, silver, and pale blue, mimicking the delicate coloring of a deer’s coat. Its distinctive print gave the ensemble a whimsical, “Bambi-core” aesthetic.

Kylie Jenner Wears Backless Halter Dress At LACMA Gala
Jenner completed the look with her dark hair styled in soft, side-parted waves, along with a matte brown lip and subtle gray eyeshadow.
Chalamet also attended the event but the two were not photographed together and walked the floor separately. Depp, meanwhile, was not in attendance.
While Jenner's gown initially attracted attention for its unusual design, it was her facial expressions and makeup that sparked a different conversation online. Fans accused the beauty mogul of imitating Depp's signature pout, with some suggesting that her poses and overall beauty aesthetic have become increasingly similar to those of the actress.
The expression, sometimes referred to online as the "Gen Z pout" or "dissociative pout," typically features a blank, heavy-lidded gaze and slightly pursed, puffy-looking lips. Johnny Depp's daughter has frequently incorporated the expression into her selfies and public appearances, and some social media users believe Kylie has adopted similar mannerisms since beginning her relationship with Chalamet.
Fans React
On X, one user wrote, "The makeup and facial expressions are all giving Lily, not just the poses."
Another commented, "The way she tries to do the pouty face like Lily kills me."
"She morphs into the ex of every man she dates," someone else claimed.
"It's down to the mannerisms," another person added.
"Anyone who can't see this is blind tbh. It was like immediately after dating Timothée her entire style changed," one user alleged.
Another wrote, "OMG, it even gives me goosebumps how scary it is. At first, I was like, her makeup looks like everyone else's nowadays, but then she turned around and started rolling her eyes, giving that low, half-lidded gaze and posing. This is crazy."
"For some strange reason, I think of Lily's mannerisms and style when I see this," another commenter shared.
Kylie Has Faced Lily-Rose Depp Comparisons Before
This isn't the first time the mom of two has been accused of taking inspiration from Chalamet's former girlfriend. She has faced similar comparisons since 2023, when rumors about her relationship with the actor first began circulating.
At the time, some social media users speculated that the makeup mogul had altered her facial fillers to achieve features they felt resembled Depp's. However, those claims were never confirmed, and the speculation coincided with a period when Jenner had already begun embracing a more toned-down appearance after years of online criticism about her supposedly "overfilled" look.
More recently, Jenner sparked another round of comparisons in January when she attended the Chanel Spring/Summer 2025 Couture show in Paris wearing a tweed Chanel skirt set. Some fans pointed out that the outfit looked similar to a Chanel ensemble Depp had worn to the brand's Cruise 2022/23 show three years earlier.
Now, following Jenner's latest appearance at the LACMA Gala, the comparisons have resurfaced, with fans once again debating whether her evolving beauty and fashion choices resemble those of Chalamet's ex.
