Reality star Kendall Jenner has made her Haute Couture debut.

The 18-year-old walked during the Chanel show as part of Paris Fashion Week - Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2014-2015 at Grand Palais on Tuesday.

Her appearance cements her place in the world of fashion, as she continues to move further and further way from Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

The beautiful brunette, who made her runway debut during Paris Fashion Week earlier this year, stole the show as she strutted her stuff.

Looking almost unrecognisable as the teenager from the hit E'! show her hair was piled above her head in a punky style with a sequined hat on the back of her head

She wore a red and black tweed off-the-shoulder dress, which had feathers sprouting off it, creating a dramatic effect.

It didn't take long for her mother Kris to gush about her second youngest, writing: 'WOW!!! Congratulations @kendalljenner you look so beautiful walking in the Chanel Couture show just now!!!!! I'm so proud of you! Fabulous show @karllagerfeld,'

Kendall also shared a picture of herself with another model backstage, which she captioned: 'birdies backstage #ChanelCouture'

The teenager has been making huge strides in the industry over the past year, walking in catwalk shows for Chanel and Marc Jacobs and landing a shoot in Vogue Paris.

Most recently she was announced as one of the new faces of Givenchy, starring in the latest campaign alongside Mariacarla Boscono and Julia Nobis shot by top fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

Her connection with Givenchy was already established back in February though when she walked in the label's show in Paris.

Meanwhile Chanel supremo Karl Lagerfeld closed the French fashion house's latest show with a pregnant bride.

Dressed in an elegant crêpe de Chine gown with a gold brocade cape and a neat line of buttons along the bodice, the model, her hair teased into a striking quiff, even allowed herself a smile as she processed along the runway on the arm of the German designer.

It was a dramatic end to a dramatic show which offered up a glimpse of Lagerfeld's romantic vision for autumn: one replete with sculptural shapes and elegantly cosy textures.

Brocade, tweed and heavy silk all featured heavily, as did gorgeously touchable prints - many of which appeared inspired by William Morris and the pre-Raphaelites.

In a departure from last January's S/S14 collection where models clad in neat, knee-length dresses and trainers took centre stage, Lagerfeld's vision for winter took a darker turn with marabou-fringed tweed and bodices studded with armour-like jewels taking centre stage.

But while ladylike might be back, heels, it seems, are not - at least according to Lagerfeld and Chanel.

Instead of skyscraper shoes, models on the catwalk at the Grand Palais des Champs-Elysées in Paris wore delicate flat sandals in black, silver and white, each one tied in place with pretty grosgrain ribbons.
