At the 2015 People’s Choice Awards at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live (now the Peacock Theater) in Los Angeles, Chloë Grace Moretz brought a youthful Louis Vuitton look to the red carpet, balancing sharp leather textures with the experimental shoe styling Nicolas Ghesquière was introducing at the house in the mid-2010s.

While accepting the award for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress, the then-17-year-old actress wore a striped leather mini skirt and a long-sleeved white lace top from the Louis Vuitton Spring 2015 collection.

The outfit paired soft detailing with structured materials, giving the look a slightly rebellious edge without feeling overworked.

The contrast between the crochet-knit blouse and the striped patent leather skirt captured the tension that defined much of Louis Vuitton’s Spring 2015 collection: soft, vintage-inspired textures paired with sharper, space-age materials.

Chloë Grace Moretz finished the outfit with a Repossi ring and Louis Vuitton’s black patent leather “New Day” sandals from the Fall 2014 collection.

Crafted from glossy glacé calf leather, Louis Vuitton’s “New Day” sandals stood out for their curved heels and oversized metallic “V” hardware — details that reflected Nicolas Ghesquière’s industrial, futuristic direction for the house during his early runway seasons.

While the sandals polarized some fashion critics in 2015, their curved heels, glossy finish, and heavy metallic detailing helped define the “ugly-cool” luxury shoe trend that dominated much of the mid-2010s.
