Margot Robbie Just Wore the Comeback Heel Trend That Could Replace Platforms

Margot Robbie has some of the best red-carpet style in Hollywood, so we always pay attention to what she wears. She wore a chic black-and-white Schiaparelli Haute Couture look to the New York premiere of her upcoming film Asteroid City, where she paired the peplum corset and pleated miniskirt with a shoe trend that's far removed from the towering platforms that have recently been the norm on the red carpet. I'm talking about pumps, the original heel style.
But aren't pumps a classic shoe style? Why am I calling them a trend? Good question. The truth is, we've been taking pumps for granted as flashier styles like platforms, wedges, and sculptural heels have been at the forefront. But the A/W 23 runways of Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, Loewe, and more indicate pumps are still cool and in style, regardless of their classic status. Accordingly, we've seen more and more celebrities wearing them this year. Pumps have been a go-to shoe for Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle for years.
On the red carpet, Robbie opted for a simple pair of black suede pumps. Scroll to see her sophisticated look for the premiere and shop some of the best pumps on the market.
