Anne Hathaway is dipping her toes into the wrong-shoe theory, and the results are oh so right.
On April 17 the 43-year-old actor found the perfect pairing for summer’s hero piece, the humble slip dress. While her particular version of the look is not quite as basic as the title typically implies—Hathaway’s version of the closet staple comes in a rich brown silk with a deconstructed sheer panel that’s toughened up by some unexpected cargo pockets—it remains a largely blank canvas that can be dressed up or down with the right footwear. And boy, did Hathaway pick the perfect shoes for a chic summer day in New York City.
It turns out, every slip dress needs to be paired with high-contrast sneakers. In this case, Hathaway opted for slim pair of Adidas Tokyo sneakers in a bold zebra print, giving the sophisticated dress a sporty twist that aligns with multiple current trends.
