Kendall Jenner responds to claims she 'upstaged' bride after wearing 'inappropriate' dress to friend's wedding
Kendall Jenner caused quite the stir when she debuted a bold look at her BFF Lauren Perez's wedding in November.
The reality star and model, 26, swapped her bridesmaid dress for a daring black cut-out gown for the reception, a decision that triggered a swift backlash online.
Some critics accused Jenner of attempting to "upstage" the bride by wearing an "inappropriate" dress — however, it appears the bride didn't seem to mind at all.

"Clearly Kendall has to be half naked or no one pays attention to her," another wrote.

Jenner, who was maid-of-honour at the November wedding, initially wore a pale blue Bec and Bridge strapless gown for the ceremony.
Model Bella Hadid was also bridesmaid, donning the same Australian-designed dress at first.
Both women opted to change into a second frock for the reception.
