Back in December 2014, Kim Kardashian’s close friend Brittny Gastineau turned heads in West Hollywood as she stepped out for dinner at Craig’s Restaurant.
The model showcased her mile-long legs in a daring black halter-neck gown with double thigh-high slits, proving why this look remains one of her most memorable red-carpet-worthy street style moments.

The then-32-year-old model embraced bold evening glamour in a floor-length black halter-neck gown, punctuated with grommet studs and daring double thigh-high slits.
She layered on a sleek leather jacket and carried a quilted black handbag, striking the perfect balance between edgy and sophisticated. A glossy pink lip added just the right touch of softness to her tough-chic look.

Instead of the standard T-shirt-and-jeans formula, she opted for a more unconventional mix that showed her willingness to experiment with everyday style.
She assembled a rather unusual ensemble – white jeans, a two-tone black and ice blue denim shirt, a Louis Vuitton monogram bag, studded sandals, and a bright yellow printed scarf.

Her off-duty look may not have been the most cohesive, with the contrasting elements creating a slightly mismatched effect.
Still, the choice of a vibrant yellow printed scarf added a welcome pop of color and showed her willingness to play with unexpected combinations. This approach keeps her casual style unpredictable and interesting.
