Kendall Jenner Celebrates 30th Birthday: Stunning Bikini Photos From Her Private Island Party

Kendall Jenner is officially 30, and the supermodel welcomed the new decade with a sunset-lit island celebration that doubled as a fashion moment for the entire Kardashian-Jenner clan. The private beach party, held on an undisclosed tropical island, featured coordinated neutral body-con looks for sisters Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian Barker, and Kylie Jenner, while birthday girl Kendall stunned in an ivory Loewe column dress that caught the golden hour glow. Kris Jenner, in a champagne-colored caftan, toasted her eldest Jenner daughter with a speech that reportedly left the normally unflappable Kendall “teary-eyed but laughing,” according to attendees. A custom wooden archway reading “Kendall’s 30th — Est. 1995” framed the oceanfront dining table, where 30 guests dined on chef-curated Baja-style seafood towers, citrus-marinated wagyu, and vegan coconut ceviche. Vintage Polaroids from Kendall’s earliest runway seasons were strung between palm trees as décor, creating what insiders called “a living moodboard of her career.” The model’s longtime friends Hailey Bieber and Justine Skye closed out dinner by leading a beach-bonfire rendition of “You’re So Vain,” a nod to Kendall’s favorite karaoke track. Guests then moved to an open-air bar where Kendall grabbed a Sharpie and scrawled “Kendall’s 30th 2025” across a wooden beam, an impromptu tradition that began at her 25th fête. Fashion watchers were quick to zero in on Kendall’s second look of the night: a barely-there black string bikini paired with a sheer sarong and stacks of yellow-gold bangles, which she later posted to Instagram Stories alongside a caption, “Thirty, flirty, and thriving.” Within two hours the post surpassed 4 million likes, prompting retailers to report a 120 percent spike in searches for “minimalist black bikini,” according to real-time shopping analytics. Beyond the aesthetics, sources close to the family say Kendall opted for a no-gifts policy, requesting donations to the Wildlife Conservation Network in lieu of presents, reflecting her well-documented love for horses and wildlife. The move echoes her recent interview in Vogue where she emphasized “protecting the planet that gives me so many shoot locations.” With new episodes of “The Kardashians” already in post-production, fans can expect the milestone birthday to be a major plot point next season. Until then, Jenner’s seaside soirée—and the viral photos flooding social feeds—underscore why she remains a dominant force in both fashion and pop-culture conversation as she steps into her thirties.
