Statuesque Caitlyn Jenner towers over leather-clad male companion following dinner date… after revealing she's eager to find a new partner

In an upcoming interview with Ellen DeGeneres, transgender reality star Caitlyn Jenner candidly confessed she hopes to find love again.

But on Friday night, the 65-year-old former Olympian was more than happy to have dinner with her friend Buzz Bissinger.

Leaving upmarket Italian restaurant Mangia in Malibu, the 6ft 2in star was spotted towering over the leather-clad writer as they made their way out of the eatery.

Caitlyn - formerly known as Bruce Jenner - cut a relatively simple, yet, perfectly stylish figure in cropped denim jeans and a white knitted jumper.

She accessorised her low-key getup with a tanned leather handbag, while adding a few extra inches to her statuesque frame with platform wedges.

Her make-up was immaculately minimal, highlighting her features with lashings of mascara and a few swipes of black eyeliner, which complemented her skin tone.

Crop it like it's hot with Caitlyn's frayed Mother jeans

On what looked like a dinner date with a mystery man, Caitlyn Jenner looked as stylish as ever in a simple slouchy knit, sandals and these killer frayed jeans.

They're by Mother denim and we love the signature slightly raw hems, and how they sculpt her figure beautifully with their snug fit.

A pair of skinnies is probably the ultimate wardrobe staple for most women, so you shouldn't feel regret when making an investment. Especially when they're by a brand loved by most of the Kardashian/Jenner crew - in fact we've spotted Kendall wearing Caitlyn's exact pair in the past!

Luckily for you they are currently available to buy at MyTheresa (click right) for $361, which is kind of steep, we know, but know the quality will more than make up for the spend.

So hurry and buy them now with a click to the right before they sell out, and wear them all year round with polo neck sweaters to crisp white shirts, flats or heels.

'Everybody wants to have a partner, everybody would love to have a family and for trans people sometimes that can be extraordinarily difficult to do,' the I Am Cait star explained, although she joked that she already has 'too many children' so is in a different point in her life.

‘I’ve kind of passed that stage in my life, but yes would I like to find a partner in life to share my life with. I’m sure I will at some point,' she continued.

'Right now I’m just very busy doing a lot of things and kind of just getting used to where I’m at and who I’m at. As time goes on I’ll deal with that subject.'
