When Daisy Ridley arrived at the Hollywood premiere of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on December 16, 2019, her footwear choice signaled a thoughtful shift in red-carpet luxury.

Working with stylist Samantha McMillen, Ridley opted for custom vegan shoes from Jimmy Choo, proving that high-fashion aesthetics and animal-friendly materials are not mutually exclusive.

The silhouette of her oxblood Oscar de la Renta gown—a custom one-shouldered design—featured a high-low hemline specifically cut to keep the focus on her footwear.
These glittering, crystal-embellished heels provided a sharp contrast to the deep texture of the sculptural gown, grounding the ethereal look with a modern, structured edge.
Accessorizing with Anita Ko ruby-and-diamond drop rope earrings and a Beladora ring, Daisy once again showed that she has an affinity for red.

A few weeks earlier, she also wore red as she made her way into the Good Morning America studios in New York City.
She styled pintucked crepe straight-leg trousers from the Michael Kors Collection with a double-breasted blazer from the same designer, matching pumps from Jimmy Choo, crystal-detailed round-frame sunglasses from Miu Miu, and Nam Cho rhodium-and-black-diamond studs.
