Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet make red carpet debut

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have officially debuted as a couple on the red carpet at the 70th David di Donatello Awards in Rome.

The event, often dubbed Italy's equivalent of the Oscars, marked a significant milestone in their relationship, which began in early 2023.

Although the couple had been spotted together at several events, such as the US Open and Beyoncé's Renaissance World Tour, this marked their first official appearance together on a major red carpet.

At the ceremony, Chalamet received the David for Cinematic Excellence in recognition of his performances in A Complete Unknown and Dune: Part Two.

For the occasion, Jenner opted for a black Schiaparelli gown, while Chalamet wore a black velvet Tom Ford suit accented with a white rosette.

Prior to the awards ceremony, Piera Detassis, president and artistic director of the Academy of Italian Cinema, spoke about Chalamet being chosen as the recipient of the prestigious award.

She told Variety: "Timothée Chalamet's European origins and American background make him one of the most unpredictable and talented protagonists of international cinema today, capable of being both an auteur performer and a star generating trends and styles."

The 29-year-old Oscar-nominated actor and the 27-year-old reality star happily held hands on the red carpet and posed for loved-up snaps together.

Detassis added:"The academy is delighted to award him the David for Cinematic Excellence, which is meant to be an acknowledgement of the great actor of quality and innovative films, and, at the same time, of the global protagonist.

"It is important for us to remember how his worldwide recognition came about thanks to a wonderful Italian film, Call Me by Your Name, directed by one of our most internationally acclaimed directors, Luca Guadagnino."
