Zoë Kravitz’s Chic Shoes Made Her Black Trousers Feel So 2025

There are certain pieces we all rely on to carry us through the week. A favourite shirt, a trusty blazer and, of course, a pair of black trousers. However, their reliability can sometimes veer into predictability. That’s where styling comes in—specifically, the shoes you choose. Because, as Zoë Kravitz just proved, the right footwear has the power to make even the simplest trousers feel infinitely more directional.

Spotted in London, Kravitz wore a straightforward, leg-skimming pair of black trousers. Nothing complicated, nothing trend-driven—until you looked down. Eschewing the expected worn-in trainers or simple ballet flats, she elevated her look with glossy black stilettos featuring a peep-toe design.

After a few years out of the fashion zeitgeist, peep-toe heels are firmly back for 2025. Having stormed the runways for the past few seasons and seen many a celebrity endorsement across recent months, the toe-baring shoes are suddenly feeling fresh once more.

What makes black trousers such a reliable foundation is their ability to adapt. Much like a blank canvas, they give trend-led pieces room to shine without ever tipping into “too much.” That means you can lean into statement shoes and the overall effect still feels balanced—effortless in that very Kravitz way.
