Kylie Jenner is everywhere, but you already knew that. In fact, I was walking through the airport, thinking about how I was about to write a review of her new clothing brand, Khy, while wearing the ridiculously cozy red sweatsuit she put out with Drop 003. And just as I was about to approach my gate, I passed by one of her Kylie Cosmetics vending machines — by far one of the biggest in the terminal. Everything the 26-year-old business owner ties her name to is in line with her personal aesthetic — so you can recognize the quintessential “Jenner” in the product before even seeing her face or reading her name — and Khy is no exception. She launched the namesake label to challenge the status quo and put luxurious spins on modern basics, collaborating on her first two lines with high-fashion designers Namilia and Entire Studios, respectively. 

So far, none of the outerwear has been priced above $198, though most people would expect to pay less for the simpler designs (i.e. shorts, joggers, bodysuits, tees, and tops), which are right around $50. Unsurprisingly, her fans have gone nuts tracking the pieces. The first Instagram of Jenner modeling a Matrix-inspired black leather trench was posted on Oct. 24, and the account already has nearly 1 million followers. Best sellers include the cropped puffer from Drop 002 in an Ikea-like cobalt blue with a rolled shawl collar and hidden zipper and velcro closure; a long sleeve thong bodysuit in a slick cotton-spandex blend with a subtle zipper at the chest; and an exaggerated puffer vest with a removable hood — the latter two being selections I made for myself.

Jenner is wise to star in every campaign, the latest of which focuses on covetable sweats, tees, and tanks that no one really needs, but everyone wants. The way the beauty mogul poses in the high-neck micro tee, framing her famous curves against a pair of matching, hip-hugging fleece pants, is alluring to say the least. I scrolled past the photo and immediately wanted the muscle tee. Sure, I have a few others, and I could easily DIY something similar with a pair of scissors given the raw edge hem, but it’s Jenner herself who helps to justify spending the $28. 

Ahead, see how I styled eight different Khy basics, comprising Drops 002 and 003, find out which piece I ended up liking the most and would easily purchase in multiple colorways, and decide for yourself after reading my review whether Khy clothing is worth it.

Khy Puffer Vest

The puffer vest has a boxy, oversize fit, which makes it a great layering piece for winter. The bulky shape of the hood is an obvious distinctive feature — you can sense how much volume it adds to the piece overall just by unpackaging and holding it up in front of you. I, for one, am a fan of chunky, cocoon-like outerwear, and felt like the blue polyester fabric had a definite sporty nature to it. I balanced that out with tailored wide-leg trousers and sock boots with a complementary primary color pop at the sculptural heel. Going bare underneath the vest was obviously a bold move in the dead of winter, but I think the fact that I felt sexy baring skin underneath the puffer speaks for its versatility.

The puffer comes in cobalt blue, stone, and black, and retails for $98. At that under-$100 price point, I understand why it’s a Khy best seller. Even without wearing anything underneath, I felt warmed by the thick, cloud-like bodice, and I especially like that the hood is both adjustable and removable, so you can style your outerwear many different ways. My only letdown was the inability to cinch the hem, as I think that would allow for a bit more focus on the bottom-half of an outfit.

Khy Long Sleeve Bodysuit + Cargo Pant

I knew I’d be excited to try out Khy-branded cargo pants, as this is currently one of my favorite pant silhouettes. To allow for full attention on the 10 differently-shaped pockets, all of which have varying decals, I went for an all-black outfit with the addition of the long-sleeve thong bodysuit. I finished the look with Miu Miu sunglasses and bright yellow Ganni x New Balance sneakers for a futuristic color pop.

From a fit perspective, it’s important to note that these pants are very baggy. The product page recommends taking your normal size and sizing down for a fit that’s less oversize, but with such a wide-cut leg and a loose waistband, I sort of felt like I was wearing snow pants. That being said, I did really love the feeling of the material, which is 48% polyester, 40% cotton, and 12% polyamide. I think it adds athletic appeal to the pooling pant street style look. The bodysuit is great, too, and I didn’t have any complaints about fit, I’m just not sure it’s worth the $50+ price tag. I also prefer a more accessible bodysuit with a snap closure at the bottom of the thong.

Khy Seamed Baby Tee + Cropped Raw Hem Rib Tank

I grant full styling credit for this look to Ms. Jenner, who’s leaning into the layering aesthetic with the release of Drop 003. While this seamed baby tee is actually from Drop 002, I thought it provided a nice foundation for a head-to-toe neutrals outfit, adding the raw hem rib tank on top and finishing with a khaki-colored skort and minimalist leather slingbacks in the same shade.

While the spandex blend of the baby tee brings the same sporty vibe as the rest of the pieces in Drop 002, the rib tank definitely caters more towards everyday loungewear. However, both pieces are equally stretchy and comfortable. If you’re the type of person who’s sensitive to a too-tight sleeve, I would recommend skipping this tee and trying the version from Drop 003 instead, which is described as more lightweight and doesn’t have the same seam detail at the front. I also love the cut and feel of the tank, but both of these items are priced a bit high for simple basics in my opinion.

Khy Micro Tee

For a night out to dinner with friends, I slipped on this micro tee (without a bra!), and felt both supported and comfortable. I was most surprised that such a casual, heather gray jersey tee with raw edges felt sophisticated enough to complete a going-out look, especially since I had originally seen it styled with sweats. But the ‘90s cut encouraged me to reach for my Dickies trousers, loafers, and socks, and there was no looking back.

The Khy micro tee is definitely my favorite piece. Not only does the elastic under the bust work to distinguish it as an eye-catching crop top, it also pulls the fabric taut, smoothing out any wrinkles. Also available in black, red, and white, it retails for $28, which is one of the lowest-priced items on the site. I tried it with my Khy sweats and the cargo pants, too, and it looks just as seamless, somehow elevating the outfit even more. I’d easily pick up this top in black and white, especially since it’s not thin enough to see through.

Khy Fleece Super Cropped Hoodie + Fleece Straight Leg Pant

Co-ord sweats are no new trend, so I can imagine Jenner and her team sitting around a table brainstorming a silhouette that doesn’t feel overdone. The answer is definitely the super-cropped hoodie, which has a heavy hood that sort of pulls the sweatshirt up and back to reveal whatever top you’re wearing underneath it. Jenner styles it with the muscle tee, but I opted for a black sports bra to accent my Ferragamo pumps and went for the whole joggers-and-heels look.

When it comes to both the hoodie and pants, It’s important that I stress how comfortable the interior fleece is. Once I slipped on the set, I didn’t want to take it off, and I think that has a lot to do with the quality of the heavyweight cotton, which looks as luxe as it feels. The pants are slouchy, but not too baggy, and I love that the pockets have zippers so you can feel secure stowing away keys, cards, or AirPods when you’re on the go. If you’re on the fence about investing in the full set, I would go for the pants over the hoodie, but maybe that’s because at the end of the day, I prefer a full-coverage, oversize sweatshirt rather than anything that’s cropped to a half-moon cut. The sweatshirt didn’t bother me by any means, but if you’ve never worn a hemline that brushes across the top of your chest and is weighted by a double-layered hood, it may take some getting used to.

Khy Drop 002 + Drop 003 Review

Khy is very much a brand for Jenner’s fans who admire her sense of style and have a penchant for modern cuts and futuristic vibes. Ultimately, I see the appeal of building hype around different drops that spotlight designers from all over the world and push the envelope, but I think the price point feels a bit high for some of the more ordinary pieces. 

As far as the site goes, I love that each product page has information on the intended fit, but the description is lacking in cleaning instructions, which many shoppers prefer to review before checking out. Each drop page does include mention of the designer behind the collaboration, but I’m surprised that there’s no additional credit on each individual product. It’s also helpful to see best sellers, but I’d love to read detailed reviews of each item. 

Be forewarned before shopping — just because you add pieces to your cart doesn’t mean they’re reserved, so plan accordingly if there’s a new drop you’re excited to peruse and sign up for marketing messages and waitlist notifications to gather as much intel as possible. Finally, there are return fees to note, and you can’t change or cancel an order after you’ve placed it on khy.com.
