Kylie Jenner Hints at Origins of Her New Fashion Brand Khy and Announces Launch Date

Kylie Jenner is getting ready to share Khy with the world.

Ahead of the release of her new fashion brand, the Kylie Cosmetics founder, 26, hinted at where she got the idea of the name for it in a video shared on Instagram Friday.

In the clip, Jenner can be seen wearing several of her new Khy pieces while walking around a hotel. In the background, her voice is heard telling a waiter, “Can I just get a coffee, please? I am here for my new brand that I can’t really say in French. I just can’t really talk about it.”

The Kardashians star is then captured walking the streets of Paris in a long black jacket with matching boots, while revealing in a voiceover: “One time I snuck my way into Paris. I got to walk the streets in, like, four days, no one found me. I just bar-hopped, went to all the restaurants [and] sat outside.”

Jenner then concludes the video by entering what appears to be a Parisian restaurant in a black Khy dress. As she sits down, a bartender asks her, “What’s your name?” to which she responds, “Khy” while sipping on a coffee.

“I can’t believe i’m finally sharing @khy with you,” Jenner captioned the video on Instagram. “Khy seamlessly blends designer fashion with everyday style into highly edited drops, starting with Faux Leather + Base Layers.”

“Drop 001 was designed in partnership with berlin-based @_namilia_ and offers twelve fashion essentials between $48 and $198 in sizes ranging from XXS to 4X. the first of many releases from khy, spanning a diverse range of categories and styles,” she added, noting that the first drop is set to launch on Nov. 1 on KHY.com.

Jenner announced the launch of her fashion line earlier in the week by sharing an Instagram post of her wearing a long faux leather trench coat. “Meet khy,” she wrote in the caption.
