Blake Lively left her sparkly Christian Louboutin shoes at home and opted for a more traditional heel style from the upcoming Fendi fall 2026 collection. The “Gossip Girl” alum attended the “Fendi Presents the Baguette 26424 Re-Edition” celebration at the Fendi Flagship in New York on Tuesday in a neutral, toned-down look.
The actress, who is known for her vibrant and maximalist style, kept her look subtle for the event. She went for all neutrals for the outing, pairing dark wash, straight-leg jeans with a black tank top with a low-scoop neckline, with a classic beige trenchcoat with black buttons.

She pulled the outfit together with a pair of patent leather pumps. The shoes are from the Fendi fall 2026 collection and were initially shared by the brand in a glimpse of Fendi’s debut collection under Maria Grazia Chiuri ahead of her first runway show in February, which the shoes were also featured in. The shoe style is designed with an elongated, sharp pointed toe and a V-cut vamp.
The shoes feature thin straps that wrap around the ankle and then crisscross on the side of the foot and are held together with a buckle on the straps. The shoes stand tall on a slightly flared heel that measures around three to four inches. The shoes have a glossy patent leather finish and feature a thicker and padded backstay detail on the back of the strap that sat atop of the exposed heel.
Chiuri presented her first Fendi collection with the Italian brand’s fall 2026 show, which took place during Milan Fashion Week in February. The designer’s collection included creative takes on footwear. While some of the fall 2026 shoes were wardrobe classics, like a pair of black penny loafers and Lively’s pointed-toe pumps, others styles were more unconventional featuring striking shape, feather details, animal prints and more.
Across several of the shoe designs, the designer styles them by layering them with socks, including the pumps the actress wore. The shoes were presented with a pair of semi-sheer black calf-high socks, while the loafers were paired with yellow socks.
The “Age of Adelaide” star showed off her shoes as she posed for photos outside of the event on the NYC sidewalks on Tuesday. Last time she was spotted out and about was at the 2026 Met Gala earlier this month. For the gala, Lively arrived in a awe-inspiring gown custom made for her by Versace. The gown was designed with soft, pastel colors in different shades of pinks, purples and yellows.
While her shoes were completely obscured by the massive train on the dress, Lively often wears over the top footwear that is embellished with rich, shiny details. The actress often wears the Christian Louboutin Follies Strass Pumps, crystal encrusted mules, pearl beaded sandals, and more. Take a look at the shoes style below.
