Zoë Kravitz Mixed ’90s Quiet Luxury With an Unexpected Pop of Color for Her Date-Night Look

Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum, who got engaged earlier this year, were photographed while out for dinner in Los Angeles Tuesday night. Kravitz was dressed in a look that resembled one of Gwyneth Paltrow’s costumes in the ’90s film Sliding Doors. She wore a gray silk blouse, tailored high-waist black pants, and a longline single-breasted black coat, with just one button fastened at the chest.

This look is the definition of ’90s minimalism, thanks to the muted color palette and clean lines. However, Kravitz made one addition that pushed it in a more playful direction: a pair of punchy purple satin flat shoes that looked like indulgent smoking slippers popping through her trouser hems.

Flat, delicate pumps have become a mainstay of Zoë Kravitz’s wardrobe, specifically her trusty Ava flats from The Row, which have become an almost permanent fixture on her feet in recent years, styled with everything from tailored trousers to gym shorts.

Prepare to see a lot more celebrities wearing shoes that could be mistaken for slippers, as the spring-summer 2024 runways were filled with various iterations of the house shoe. At JW Anderson, there were crochet slippers, while The Row included a pair of spa-like white backless slippers.

Sienna Miller has also recently been spotted wearing slip-on flats—she wore a pair of black backless hotel-style slippers for a Sunday date in Notting Hill.
