Kendall Jenner, Jacob Elordi Debut Fall 2026 Colorblocking in London as Romance Rumors Hit 6 Months

Q: Why did Kendall Jenner skip the red carpet for Jacob Elordi's premiere, only to be spotted on a high-profile date afterward?

Kendall Jenner appears to have skipped the red carpet to keep the focus on Jacob Elordi’s film premiere while still supporting him privately afterward. Nothing in the reporting suggests a fallout or scheduling problem. The consistent account is that Jenner flew to London for *The Dog Stars* premiere, chose not to walk the carpet, and met Elordi later for a date night. Coverage described the pair as generally private and noted they have not yet made an official red-carpet debut as a couple, even though they have been photographed together repeatedly in Hawaii, Tokyo, Australia, Idaho and now London. That pattern makes the decision look deliberate rather than accidental. By staying off the carpet, Jenner avoided turning a movie premiere into a relationship reveal and left the official spotlight on Elordi, his co-stars and even his canine co-star, Rak Jasper. The later public date, however, showed she was there in support and that the relationship remains active and increasingly visible. The after-premiere outing was still high-profile: they were seen holding hands, reportedly spent time at China Tang at the Dorchester, and continued the night at Soho House. In short, Jenner seems to be drawing a line between Elordi’s professional event and their personal relationship—private enough to skip the formal debut, public enough to be seen together afterward.

August 19 in London, Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi stepped out at Cipriani in coordinated smart-casual looks that highlighted Fall 2026 colorblocking rather than matching outfits outright.
Jenner paired a white cropped tee with a cobalt-blue shirt, black trousers and a burgundy Maxi Flap Bag, while Elordi wore a white T-shirt, a forest-green windbreaker and indigo jeans.
Those shades — cobalt blue, burgundy, forest green and dark denim — mirror key Fall 2026 runway palettes seen at Balenciaga, Loewe, Polo Ralph Lauren and Nina Ricci.
The sighting came about 2 months after the pair were photographed boarding a flight in Australia, extending a string of public appearances amid 6 months of dating speculation.
Their London fashion outing also preceded a later appearance in the city tied to Elordi's 'The Dog Stars' premiere, where Jenner again appeared by his side.
