Some styles don’t fade—and Cara Delevingne’s love for Tabitha Simmons’ “Eva” booties is proof. The British supermodel, who stands 5ft 7¼ (170.8 cm), leaned into the elongating power of these suede open-toe heels during spring 2014, proving how the right footwear can elevate your look and stature.
We first spotted her wearing these Tabitha Simmons “Eva” booties on March 14, 2014. By May, she had styled them for at least two more high-profile events—on back-to-back nights, no less—proving that some fashion favorites are worth repeating. Let’s revisit how Cara made these statement shoes her spring signature.

Eliza made quite the statement. We’re just unsure what that statement was and whether or not it works. For a Prada party, this look leaves a bit to be desired.
