Kendall Jenner could wear a brown paper bag and stop traffic while crossing the street — she looks amazing in everything. I've yet to see her wear an actual bag as a dress, but she does wear a lot of very, very short dresses [1]. And if I had miles-long legs like hers, I'd wear minidresses as often as possible, too.
Whether Kendall is hitting a red carpet or just walking around sunny LA [2], she has a minidress for every occasion (polka dots, see-through fabric [3], runway-approved . . . you name it). If you're one to take inspiration from Kendall's on-point street style [4], you'll also love every last one of these looks. Here are 14 times the fashionable model rocked the hell out of a tiny dress. Read on for inspiration, then shop some similar numbers we think she'd like.
