Kendall Jenner Takes a Page Out of Jacob Elordi’s Packing Playbook
Packing light? Kendall Jenner has never heard of it. On September 2, the model arrived at the 2026 Venice Film Festival with an oversized Chanel weekender that tested the size limits of carry-on luggage—a look reminiscent of her beau Jacob Elordi’s arrival in 2025.
In Venice, celebrity airport strolls have become their own quasi-runway, and for Jenner, a supermodel by trade, the entrance is all the more impactful. As expected, her off-the-plane outfit oozed coastal Italian ease—featuring crisp white separates, face-covering Side Eye sunglasses, The Row leather flats, and a dainty brown wristwatch. While Elordi wore a slouchy Bottega Veneta tote for his highly photographed arrival in 2025, Jenner opted for a Chanel bowling bag—which became the star of the sartorial show. The camel-colored suede design featured chocolate-brown leather piping at the sides and down the front, giving the slouchy silhouette a hint of structure. Meanwhile, the subtle quilting and touches of gold hardware—specifically the double C logo at the front—grounded the look in Old-Hollywood polish. Perfect for the occasion.
The 83rd Venice International Film Festival marks Jenner’s first time at the celeb-studded event. The star is reportedly attending on behalf of Armani Beauty this week, alongside ambassadors like Jonathan Bailey and Sydney Sweeney. It’s a particularly fitting appearance for the model, who is rumored to have begun dating Oscar-nominated actor—and big bag aficionado—Jacob Elordi earlier this year. The pair have been spotted together on multiple trips throughout the summer, and while they have not made an official red carpet debut, it makes perfect sense that Jenner would want to step into his silver-screen red carpet world.
In 2025, Elordi was focused on promoting Frankenstein, which premiered at the festival. This year, it remains unconfirmed whether he will attend, but if he does, we’ll be on the lookout for a couples’ outing with coordinating oversized bags.
