Anna Kendrick brought a mix of modern graphic prints and classic footwear to the Arclight in Hollywood on February 11, 2015, for the premiere of the musical The Last Five Years.
Co-starring alongside Jeremy Jordan, the actress utilized the event to showcase a sophisticated contrast between avant-garde apparel and timeless luxury accessories.
During the summer of 2013, we spotted her in retro-inspired orange peep-toe wedge sandals while filming The Last Five Years in New York City.

For this red carpet appearance, Kendrick opted for a bold, striped midi-frock from the Vionnet Spring 2015 collection.
While the graphic Vionnet dress delivered a modern, architectural silhouette, Anna anchored the look with a timeless classic: Jimmy Choo’s Darilyn pumps.
The pointed-toe d’Orsay style — defined by its elegant side cut-out that reveals the arch and a dramatic high-cut heel counter — added instant polish and subtle allure. Most often seen in the 85mm version, the slender stiletto strikes that coveted balance between leg-lengthening lift and red-carpet stability, making it a favorite for premieres and formal events alike.

Crafted in Italy and typically rendered in glossy patent leather or plush suede, the Darilyn features sleek lines and a narrow toe box, creating a refined, sculpted finish.
On Kendrick, the black pair delivered classic Hollywood elegance — proof that sometimes the smartest styling move is letting an impeccably cut pump do the talking.
Earlier that month, she wore the same heels with a sharply tailored Band of Outsiders pantsuit at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.
