Katie Holmes defies the norm with her square-toe loafers from Acne Studios, showcasing boldness and style on the streets of New York.
Katie Holmes is no stranger to bold footwear choices. Always true to her New York style, the elegant star has been spotted running through the Big Apple sporting a variety of eye-catching shoe styles, including cowboy boots, Choé clogs, and even those infamous padded heels from Bottega. Holmes prefers a shoe wardrobe that is about embracing style over comfort. That said, her latest pair combines both, although the polarizing silhouette will generate divided opinions.
Yes, we’re talking about her square-toe loafers here. With a ruched trim and a slight square heel, the striking shoes are from Acne Studios (Holmes has been wearing them for a few years now). By sporting them again this season, she proved she’s still unafraid to rock an exaggerated shoe shape. It’s true that fans of pointed or round-toe shoes, which are much more common, may reject the idea of embracing such a voluminous silhouette. But paired with the right look, they have something substantial and stylish. They can really anchor an outfit.
Holmes certainly nailed her approach to dressing in tune with eye-catching shoes. Her minimalist ensemble, which included a large trench coat, khaki pants, a Mansur Gavriel bag, and cat-eye sunglasses, felt refined enough and ensured that her riskier footwear choice was the focal point. The whole outfit had just the right amount of sparkle. Now, are we saying you should throw out all your round-toe loafers? Not exactly, but what we are saying is don’t be afraid to embrace the pointed toe either. Because, as Holmes clearly demonstrates, it’s a rare instance where being square can be cool.
