Milly Alcock Reimagines Supergirl Style in Architectural Miista Mules and Red Leg Warmers

As the promotional tour for Supergirl gets underway, Milly Alcock made a stylish stop in Brazil, attending both the film’s premiere and photocall ahead of the movie’s June 26 release.

Though she plays one of DC’s most recognizable heroes, Alcock avoided predictable comic-book references in favor of moodier, more directional fashion.

Standing about 5ft 2 (157.5 cm) tall—despite some online sources listing her closer to 5ft 5in (165 cm)—and reportedly wearing a US shoe size 9, she used carefully chosen footwear, from glossy cone-heeled pumps to angular Miista mules, to anchor two distinct looks that felt more fashion week than superhero costume.

In the film, Alcock plays Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, Superman’s cousin, who had a much darker upbringing. Unlike Superman, who was raised on Earth by loving parents, Kara grew up on a fragment of the destroyed planet Krypton and watched the people around her die.

That backstory gives her a tougher, more jaded edge, and her journey begins around her 23rd birthday, when she travels across the galaxy with her dog, Krypto. Along the way, she meets Ruthye Marye Knoll, and a tragic event pushes her into a revenge-driven mission.

For the Brazil premiere and photocall, the House of the Dragon actress channeled that darker Supergirl energy with looks from Jason Wu and Miista, mixing softness with a little rebellion.

For the Supergirl premiere held at Museu do Amanha, Milly slipped into shiny black pumps with a high-cut vamp, giving the shoes a sleek vintage shape. The closed-toe design looked refined, while the glossy finish added a sharper, dressier touch. They were set on cone-shaped block heels, which matched the outfit’s mix of polish and edge.

Alcock also wore knee-high sheer black stockings, which elevated the overall styling. They added a subtle retro, schoolgirl-meets-punk touch and helped tie the black pumps into the rest of the outfit. Instead of bare legs, the stockings made the look more layered, moody, and fashion-forward.

Milly paired the pumps with a deconstructed look from Jason Wu’s Spring 2026 collection. A sheer black chiffon top was layered over a cropped camisole, while embroidered lace panels traced the bodice in geometric formations that added structure and contrast to the delicate fabric. The plunging neckline and slender shoulder straps balanced the intricate detailing with effortless ease.

She styled the top with a high-waisted black satin miniskirt that added an intentionally undone quality to the outfit. An asymmetrical foldover panel at the waist created the illusion of unfastened tailoring reworked into a skirt, while a front slit added movement.

The raw, frayed hem offset the satin’s polished finish, giving the look a subtle edge without overwhelming its elegance.

Keeping the focus on the clothes, Milly opted for relaxed beauty styling. Her blonde hair fell in loose, tousled waves, and her makeup remained understated with soft neutral tones. Tiffany & Co. jewelry provided the finishing touch, including a delicate pendant necklace, the Tiffany T T1 Ring, the Tiffany Knot Double Row Ring, and an Elsa Peretti Cabochon ring.

Milly Alcock Reimagines Supergirl in Deconstructed Miista Mules, Skirt, and Ribbed Top

At the Supergirl photocall in Rio de Janeiro, Milly Alcock wore a deconstructed Miista look that mixed structure and texture with unexpected pops of color, echoing her character’s costume.

She slipped into the $550 Miista “Shari” mules in black leather, designed with two thin buckled straps across the foot, elongated pointed toes, and 3.5-inch heels set on a flared, angular base.

The shoes already stood out on their own, but were elevated further with bright red leg warmers layered on top, adding a bold contrast that subtly referenced Supergirl’s signature color without looking costumey.

Alcock paired her shoes with the $455 Miista “Patty” skirt in a gray wool blend, tailored with a paneled construction and a long front zip. The fabric had a soft structure, while the hem featured internal metal wiring that allowed it to be shaped and adjusted, giving the silhouette a more experimental edge.

On top, she wore the $390 Miista “Lilou” ribbed-knit vest in an ecru combed-cotton-and-cashmere blend, detailed with an off-center V-shaped neckline, cutout shoulder cuffs, and side-split detailing. A glimpse of a red bra strap showed underneath, tying back to the leg warmers and adding another layer of contrast.

She finished the look with drop earrings and statement rings, keeping her accessories minimal but striking.

Alcock’s choice of Miista also marks a relatively rare appearance for the London-based footwear label on Your Next Shoes. Over the years, the brand has surfaced in a handful of memorable celebrity looks, including Vanessa Hudgens’ buckled Miista “Andee” platform boots and Jenna Ortega’s gothic Miista “Shana” lace-up boots.

Like those earlier appearances, Alcock’s angular “Shari” mules showcase the brand’s preference for unconventional silhouettes and fashion-forward details over traditional red-carpet footwear.

For those drawn to Alcock’s photocall look, Miista’s latest footwear styles, including architectural heels, pointed mules, and the brand’s signature unconventional silhouettes, are currently available at Farfetch, where the avant-garde brand continues to expand its cult following among fashion insiders.
