Kaia Gerber’s Valentino tulle dress with a cape brought a playful, school-girl fashion moment to The Hollywood Reporter’s 2024 “Next Gen” event. Gerber’s ensemble was the latest creation of new creative director Alessandro Michele’s debut collection for the fashion house. On Wednesday, she sported the unique set, mixing old money style with casual wear, to THR and Instagram’s Next Gen 2024 party in Los Angeles and looked glamorous doing so.

In another iconic style, Kaia Gerber paired up a Valentino golden cape and tulle dress with casual knee-high socks for THR’s 2024 Next Gen party. She wore the set from Alessandro Michele’s Resort 2025 collection titled Avant les Débuts that only debuted this fall in one of the creative director’s first for the fashion house.
Michele’s entire collection comprised a total of 189 looks including Gerber’s tulle dress, reported Vogue. The heavily embellished two-piece set comprised a mini dress and the cape with a white-pearl hem at the bottom and complex beadwork in floral patterns.
The outlet stated how the fashion model prefers styling her looks these days and paired her latest ensemble with knee-high pointelle socks. In addition, Valentino posted about Gerber’s look in a since-deleted Instagram story, sharing more details about the outfit.
The fashion house noted that her lavender-colored footwear was the Garavani Bowow pumps from Michele’s debut collection. Gerber then went with neutral makeup tones, styling her brunette locks in soft curls, defining her eyebrows, and adding rosy blush and matching, glossy lip shade to complete the look.
Kaia Gerber’s styling of the gold Valentino cape and tulle dress for THR’s 2024 Next Gen easily transported the looks into something from the 1920s. The pearl detailing and the school-girl fashion further contributed to that fact. The cape, however, is proving to be a trend-setting clothing accessory. Very recently, Elle Fanning sported a somewhat similar cape design with her Valentino gown at the 2024 Governors Awards.
This occasion also marked the continuance of Gerber’s latest elegant fashion moments. She recently donned a stunning, pistachio-colored Gucci gown at the 2024 LACMA Art + Film Gala and channeled Audrey Hepburn in an ornate, vintage Alexander McQueen Givenchy gown.
