9 Iconic Bella Hadid Paris Fashion Week Shoe Moments: From Lug Soles to PVC Boots

During Paris Fashion Week in July 2021, Bella Hadid stepped out in a rotation of sharp runway looks, model-off-duty outfits, and statement footwear that reflected the era’s growing obsession with knee-high boots, lug soles, and fashion-meets-performance sneakers.

One of her standout appearances came at the Louis Vuitton Parfum dinner in Paris, where she paired a black embellished mini dress from the house’s Resort 2022 collection with dramatic leather knee-high boots.

The look balanced polished evening dressing with the tougher silhouettes that defined much of her Paris street style that season.

Flashing her pearly whites, the supermodel glammed up with nude lipstick, neutral eyeshadow, and a hint of blush. She then wore her long brunette hair down in natural-looking, tousled waves for her evening beauty look.

Allowing her dress to take center stage, Bella wore minimal accessories, including a ring and a geometric patent-leather clutch with tassel detailing.
