Kendall Jenner's "golden hour" blonde is the ultimate sunkissed hair colour

Following a carousel of experimental wigs for photoshoots this month, Kendall Jenner has committed to a statement hair transformation of her own. The model sidelined her signature jet-black lengths in favour of a fresh cut and colour; a warm honey shade we're coining "golden hour" blonde.

Jenner gave us a good look at her new shade when attending the Bottega Veneta show during Milan Fashion Week. The 28-year-old arrived at the show wearing a draped brown dress with matching brown accessories, her dark chocolatey neutrals providing the perfect contrast to her new brighter locks, which she wore smooth and centre-parted, with softly flicked-out ends.

The new tone, courtesy of the celebrity hairstylists Jenna Parry and Jessica Gillin, features a subtle blended shadow root, sunkissed buttery lengths and a blunt shoulder-length crop. A stark departure from the model's trademark glossy tresses, "golden hour" blonde boasts a gilded warmth, not too dissimilar to the tint cast by the late afternoon sunshine. With a rich depth and flattering glow, this is the ultimate autumnal blonde shade.

In September alone, the 28-year-old has showcased a variety of alternative hairstyles, from a blunt, cropped pixie for Calvin Klein (a look that truly spotlighted the model's resemblance to her mother, Kris Jenner) to an extraterrestrial combination of textured extensions, and a micro-fringe for a Marni campaign. When it comes to experimental locks, Jenner has proven that she is truly a beauty chameleon.

Jenner's younger sister, Kylie isn't following too far behind. Just last week, the beauty entrepreneur and media star took to Instagram to debut a set of vibrant teal tresses, an ode to her teenage years and iconic 'King Kylie' era. While we're yet to see if the statement hair look endures a single week, or if it will make an appearance this Fashion Month, it remains a playful reference in the catalogue of Jenner's dramatic beauty transformations.
