Fashion knows no boundaries, and Kaia Gerber’s boots are here to prove it! From the runways of Paris to the streets of the fashion capital, she effortlessly sets the bar high with her daring fashion choices. While the summer heat may be in full swing, Kaia Gerber proves that autumn vibes can be embraced regardless of the season.
The Valentino Fall 2023 Haute Couture Show
Kaia Gerber kicked off the season with a bang at the Valentino Fall 2023 Haute Couture show. While all eyes were on her exquisite ensemble, it was her choice of boots that truly stole the spotlight. With jeans embellished in micro-crystals and a crisp white shirt, Kaia completed her look with silver mules featuring giant bows.
The Transition From Couture to Ready-to-Wear
Kaia Gerber’s style doesn’t end on the runway. She was spotted leaving Chantilly wearing the opening look from Valentino’s Fall 2023 ready-to-wear collection. To complement her black thigh-grazing minidress with a halter neckline, she opted for a pair of glossy, chunky boots with a square toe. These boots showed the new trend of integrating autumn footwear into the summer wardrobe.
The Season’s Hottest Boot Trend – Chunky Ankle Boots
With their thick soles and fitted ankle design, chunky ankle boots effortlessly toughen up mini hemlines, making them an ideal choice for those looking to add a touch of edginess to their autumn-inspired outfits. The best part is that there’s no need to wait for cooler temperatures to rock this coveted boot style.
Pierpaolo Piccioli’s Black Tie Inspiration
Behind the scenes, Pierpaolo Piccioli, the creative force behind Valentino, drew inspiration from his daughter and her unconventional choice of attire. In an interview, he shared how his daughter’s decision to wear a suit and tie without any specific reason sparked his curiosity. Piccioli’s Fall 2023 collection embraced the concept of a black tie, with every look incorporating a collar and tie.
Anya Taylor-Joy Awes the Onlookers in a Bold and Flowing Metallic Gown
Actress Anya Taylor-Joy simply stunned the onlookers with her gorgeous gown at the Los Angeles premiere of her latest movie Last Night in Soho. The 25 years old young and talented actress has opted for a shimmery glittery look, and it didn’t disappoint at all!
The Look
For the premiere, Anya Taylor-Joy chose a floor-kissing metallic gold gown with a bold plunging neckline. The blonde beauty styled her waist-length golden locks in loose waves, gently falling down one of her shoulders. She paired the dress with a stone-studded emerald green necklace. The unusual choice paid well by adding the bling of color! Nude lips and smoky eyes completed her red carpet look. Her entire appearance was undeniably chic, with bold and shimmery styling perfectly blended with traditional elegance.
The Movie
Last Night in Soho was released on last 29th October. The movie is a psychological thriller, directed by much-admired director Edgar Wright. The plot centers around Eloise (played by Thomasin McKenzie), an aspiring fashion designer, and her mysterious journey back to the 1960s, where she met a dazzling budding singer Sandie (played by Taylor-Joy). As the story develops, more sinister twists unravel behind the glitz and glamour, and the golden dreams of the past start to collapse into something far darker. The film also has an elaborate cast of Matt Smith, Synnove Karlsen, Jessie Mei Li, and the Harry Potter famed twins James and Oliver Phelps, among others. This is also the posthumous release and last work of actress Margaret Nolan.
The Planning
The planning behind the film was actually ongoing for years, starting from the first time Anya Taylor-Joy met Edgar Wright just after The Witch in 2015, which marked the film debut of the actress. Wright first cast Taylor-Joy in the role of Eloise, but later they both decided to go for the more audacious character of Sandie.
