On February 26, 2018, Reese Witherspoon arrived at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles for the world premiere of Disney’s A Wrinkle in Time.

The actress and producer leaned into a sophisticated, monochromatic palette, selecting a custom Michael Kors Collection gown that combined sharp tailoring with high-wattage shine.
The claret-hued, crystal-embroidered dress remains a masterclass in modern red-carpet dressing, balanced by a one-shoulder neckline and a streamlined silhouette.

Completing the look with classic luxury, Witherspoon opted for Cartier jewelry and a pair of minimalist Jimmy Choo heels—a label she frequently returns to for its blend of comfort and elegance on the carpet.
Reese Witherspoon’s long-standing affinity for Jimmy Choo heels extends well beyond the A Wrinkle in Time premiere, with the actress repeatedly turning to the label for its blend of elegance and wearability on major red carpets.
She showcased the height-enhancing appeal of the brand in Jimmy Choo “Pearl” platform sandals at the Tiffany & Co. Blue Book Gala, opted for sleek sophistication in classic black Jimmy Choo heels paired with an Elie Saab gown at the AFI Life Achievement Award Gala, and embraced bold color in green Jimmy Choo “Abel” pumps at the Toronto International Film Festival—cementing the brand as a go-to choice for elongating her petite frame with polished impact.

Reese was joined on the blue carpet by Gugu Mbatha-Raw and her daughter, Ava Phillippe. Ava mirrored her mother’s poise, opting for a shorter hemline to showcase her pedicured feet in a pair of classic black ankle-strap sandals.

Ava Phillippe’s height comes as little surprise given her parents’ proportions. Her father, Ryan Phillippe, stands at a relatively modest 5ft 8½ (174 cm), while her mother, Reese Witherspoon, is famously petite at just 5ft 1½ (156.2 cm), making Ava’s similar stature a natural genetic match rather than an exception.
