Zendaya completed a sleek white look with coordinating Christian Louboutin pumps for the Italian premiere of her new film, “Challengers,” in Rome on Monday. The actress opted for the iconic brand’s signature So Kate silhouette set on a soaring stiletto heel, which she was previously seen wearing during the film’s photo call in Paris on Saturday.
Appearing at a photo call earlier in the day, Zendaya made waves in another pair of white pumps, a striking custom Loewe style featuring miniature logo-stamped tennis balls at the base of the 5-inch stiletto. The avant-garde design served as a nod to the tennis-focused film.
The “Euphoria” star also wore custom Loewe pumps at the Australian premiere of “Challengers” on March 26. The pointy-toed stilettos boasted a sparkly green upper that matched her eye-catching gown. It’s no wonder she’s been wearing plenty of Loewe during the press tour as Jonathan Anderson, the popular brand’s creative director, did the costuming for the film.
When Zendaya isn’t hitting the red carpet, her shoe style tends to be on the more casual side. For instance, she was recently spotted at the Sydney airport wearing On Running’s The Roger Centre Court sneakers. The crisp white vegan leather low-tops gets its name from tennis legend Roger Federer. She was also pictured at a store in Sydney sporting Maison Margiela’s Tabi ballet flats.
The “Dune” actress slipped into Christian Louboutin’s pointy-toe So Kate pumps ($795) boasting glossy white patent leather uppers and a sky-high 4.7-inch stiletto heel.
The bold shoes also come in black, red, gold and iridescent hues. Louboutin’s “Kate” collection was named after legendary supermodel Kate Moss.
Established in Paris in 1991, Christian Louboutin’s first customer was Princess Caroline of Monaco. Prior to founding his eponymous brand, the French fashion designer was an apprentice under Roger Vivier and designed women’s shoes for Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent. Now one of the most successful luxury shoe brands in the world, Louboutin has received numerous accolades and starred on the cover of FN’s 75th anniversary issue in 2020.
