Blonde bombshell Kendall Jenner swaps hair colour with brunette beauty BFF Gigi Hadid as they switch up their style to rule the runway at Balmain's Paris Fashion Week showcase 

They're best friends and catwalk queens and on Thursday, Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid swapped hair colours as they took to a very star-studded catwalk at the Balmain show.

Kendall, 20, rocked a tousled blonde wig complete with roots, rather than a permanent change, which was similar to the one recently worn by sister Kim Kardashian, while Gigi, also 20, looked quite different with a long curly brunette wig, rather than her usual blonde as she followed closely behind her. 

Sporting rather racy looks, Kendall went braless and flashed her cleavage under a semi-sheer purple striped top worn under a matching cardigan with large shoulder pads. It was worn with a corseted layer which she teamed with a very sexy pair of thigh-high boots.

She wore an oversized clear perspex choker which had gold discs, while Gigi covered up in a matching corset top which was high-necked.

Wearing a matching satin blazer over the top, she also slipped into a mini skirt and a cream pair of thigh-highs. The girls complemented each other's look as they rocked pieces in the same hue from the same collection.

Balmain also posted a picture of the two girls' new and temporary hairstyles, writing: 'A blonde @KendallJenner and a brunette @GiGiHadid backstage #BALMAINFW16.'

The wigs were styled by hair stylist to the stars Sam McKnight ahead of the fashion extravaganza.

Also walking on the day were supermodels Jourdan Dunn, who wore a dramatic mini in lilac which cinched in at the waist with a wide belt with a gold trim. Karlie Kloss flashed her underwear in sheer lace trousers which had a frilly detail which ran from top to bottom. 

Fellow runway stars Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Alessandra Ambrosio also changed their hair colours, with Rosie swapping her bobbed caramel highlights for a long brunette style and Alessandra going from brunette to blonde.

Kendall's mother, Kris Jenner proudly took to Twitter ahead of the show to share an image of her daughter and Gigi. She wrote: 'Blonde for @balmain! @kendalljenner #proudmama #parisfashionweek @gigihadid #Repost @vogueparis.' 

She arrived at the event wearing a very short glitzy gold mini dress, draping a brown long fur jacket over her shoulders as she took to her seat, alongside her son-in-law Kanye West. She completed the look with a pair of sexy strappy sandals.

Muse rocker Matt Bellamy and his model girlfriend Elle Evans wore matching outfits to the event, with criss-cross lacing featuring heavily. While Elle went underwear free in her racy jumpsuit, it seems it was all too much for Matt who couldn't resist locking lips with his lover.
