With such a young and fashion-forward lineup leading the project, standout outfits were expected. And they definitely delivered, serving one standout look after another, turning the press circuit into a mini fashion moment.

Footwear choices leaned heavily toward pumps, though they were far from basic. Many of the pairs featured interesting details, from sharp silhouettes to eye-catching finishes, making them stand out. And even when some of them went for more classic pump styles, they made sure the rest of their outfit brought the drama.
Let’s take a look at what Lili Reinhart, Lola Tung, Victoria Pedretti, Alexandra Shipp, and Emma Chamberlain wore to the Forbidden Fruits press tour.
Lili Reinhart Brings Vintage Versace Glam in Medusa Pumps and Archival Bondage Dress
Lili Reinhart went the sultry all-black route, stepping out in a pair of black Versace pumps that were anything but plain.
The heels featured the brand’s iconic gold-tone Medusa logo medallion placed right at the vamps, adding a flash of signature Versace glamour against the dark palette.
I loved how the hardware elevated the design, making the shoes look bold and stylish. They were finished with sharp pointed toes and tall stiletto heels, giving the pair a sleek, elegant silhouette.

Reinhart paraded her legs in an archival black bodycon bondage dress from Gianni Versace’s Fall 1992 Couture collection. The rare vintage piece was crafted from black ribbed stretch fabric that fit her like a glove, hugging her slim figure flawlessly.
What made the dress even more striking were the black leather buckled straps. Three were placed along each side of the waist, while another wrapped around the high neckline. These details introduced an edgy bondage element while creating the illusion of a slimmer waist.
Keeping things sultry and effortless, Reinhart skipped heavy jewelry. Instead, she opted for tiny earrings and a bold red manicure, adding a pop of color. Her blonde hair fell in soft waves, parted to the side, while her makeup stayed fresh and simple, with soft pink tones.

Lola Tung Embraces Dark Plum Glam in Aldo “Stessysling” Pumps and Mugler Draped Mini Dress
Lola Tung dressed a little more mature for her Good Morning America guest appearance, and I loved how her shoes enhanced the sultry mood of the entire look. A few days earlier, she attended the Valentino show in burnished slingback pumps, paired with a brown suede miniskirt, a blue striped sweater, and a cotton poplin shirt underneath.
This time, she wore the $110 Aldo “Stessysling” pumps in glossy burgundy patent leather, instantly elevating the outfit and giving the styling a polished, sophisticated finish.
The pumps featured sharp, pointed toes and a sleek slingback strap with a small buckle closure, keeping the silhouette delicate and refined. Set on slim stiletto heels measuring about four inches, the shoes added height while keeping the overall vibe elegant and confident.

Tung paired the heels with a Mugler mini dress ($1,500 at FWRD) in a deep plum shade, creating a sleek tonal moment. The color itself was intriguing and somewhat mysterious, perfectly matching the film’s moody vibe.
Made in Portugal from lightweight crepe fabric, the Mugler dress featured soft draping that beautifully highlighted her figure while still reflecting the French fashion house’s signature structured tailoring.
The bodice was fitted and featured a daring plunging neckline, with a draped panel on one side and a fabric wrapped around the neck. It also had padded shoulders that added structure, long sleeves that flowed like a cape with slit cutouts along the arms, and slightly flared buttoned cuffs.
Hugging her hips while showing off her legs, the asymmetrical mini skirt fell in soft, fluid folds, adding a touch of drama to the silhouette.
Keeping things polished, Tung wore minimal jewelry and carried a $3,800 large black Valentino “Panthea” shoulder bag in nappa leather with a chevron pattern. Her hair fell in loose waves over her chest, paired with soft pink makeup and $595 Saint Laurent SL 902 Howl sunglasses that added a cool finishing touch.

Victoria Pedretti Goes Playful Y2K in Beaded Fendi Wedges and Chartreuse Satin Skirt
Victoria Pedretti went for a fun Y2K-inspired outfit that instantly stood out, though the styling itself was pretty simple. I couldn’t help but notice her shoes right away. They instantly became the focal point of the outfit, standing out with their bold colors and intricate floral design.
Pedretti chose a pair of Fendi wedges that were fully embellished with intricate, multicolored beads. Blue beads covered most of the shoe, creating a shimmering base, while floral motifs made from beads, thread embroidery, and crystals added extra texture and visual interest.
Pops of pink, green, light blue, yellow, and purple were scattered throughout the design, making the heels look playful and whimsical. I especially liked the 3D flower detail at the toes, which added texture and a striking visual element.
An asymmetrical strap wrapped across the top of the foot and extended toward the heel to create a slingback strap. It was crafted from pale lavender lizard-embossed leather, adding even more texture to the already detailed shoes. The wedges also featured peep toes and forest-green insoles, completing their colorful design.

Pedretti paired the statement heels with a chartreuse silk-satin column midi skirt, instantly adding even more color to the outfit. The glossy fabric complemented the shoes’ playful tones while creating a bold contrast with the cooler blues in the beadwork.
Pedretti balanced the vibrant skirt with a white long-sleeved Lord of the Rings graphic top featuring an image of Galadriel across the front, giving the whole look that nostalgic Y2K vibe.
With her hair styled in soft waves, Victoria finished her look with minimal earrings and sleek black sunglasses.

Alexandra Shipp Channels Modern Power Dressing in Jimmy Choo “Ixia” Patent Pumps
Alexandra Shipp stepped out in a modern business-chic look, opting for a sleek all-black ensemble. I loved how polished and confident the styling looked while still keeping things fashion-forward.
For footwear, Shipp chose the Jimmy Choo “Ixia” pumps crafted from glossy black patent leather. The shiny finish instantly elevated the outfit, adding a refined contrast to the textured fabric of her dress suit. While the pumps looked classic at first glance, the squared vamps gave them a subtle modern edge.
They also featured sharp, pointed toes and slender 3.7-inch heels, but what really made them recognizable was their contemporary drop heel design. It added a cool architectural element, making the pumps feel understated yet glamorous.
You can get these pumps for $1,050 at Mytheresa and Farfetch.

Jimmy Choo “Ixia” Pumps Are a Celebrity Favorite on and off the Red Carpet
Alexandra Shipp isn’t the only star who has embraced Jimmy Choo’s sculptural “Ixia” pumps. The sleek silhouette—defined by its squared vamp, sharp, pointed toe, and distinctive drop heel—has become a go-to choice for celebrities seeking a modern twist on the classic stiletto.
At the 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards, Rachel Brosnahan paired metallic silver Jimmy Choo “Ixia” pumps with an emerald Vivienne Westwood gown, creating a striking contrast between shimmering heels and rich satin drapery on the red carpet.
The design has also been spotted on Julia Roberts, who styled glossy black Jimmy Choo “Ixia” pumps with sheer tights and a polished fall ensemble, highlighting the shoe’s sculptural drop-shaped heel that transforms a timeless pump into a modern statement piece.
Meanwhile, Erin Doherty stepped out in Jimmy Choo “Ixia” pumps at the 2026 Film Independent Spirit Awards, pairing the architectural heels with a sculptural black Lii mini dress for a sleek, fashion-forward red carpet moment.
The style has also appeared on stars like Kaia Gerber, who wore white Jimmy Choo “Ixia” pumps with a Hervé Léger bandage dress at TIFF, and Elizabeth Banks, who styled the black patent version with Wolford tights and a Harbison mini dress, proving the contemporary pump works just as well for red carpets as it does for press appearances.
Alexandra Shipp Sharpens the Look With a Bouclé Tweed Power Suit
Up top, Shipp paired the heels with a black blazer that fit her beautifully. I loved the longline silhouette because it created a sleek, elongated shape. The blazer looked structured, with a double-breasted front, sharp peaked lapels, and padded shoulders that created a flattering hourglass effect. It was made from boucle wool-blend tweed woven with metallic silver threads, giving the fabric a subtle shimmer that felt perfect for a press appearance.
Underneath, she wore a fitted dress made of the same boucle tweed. The silhouette hugged her figure, featuring a plunging neckline, a cinched waist, and a thigh-skimming hem that showed off her legs wrapped in black tights.
To finish the look, Alexandra Shipp accessorized with earrings and rings and carried a black shoulder bag.

Emma Chamberlain Adds Punk Edge With Classic Pumps and Floral Fishnet Stockings
Emma Chamberlain stepped out in a pair of classic black pumps with sharp pointed toes and tall heels. They were simple, but they balanced the rest of her more detailed outfit. The clean design kept the look polished while letting the other elements stand out.
She styled the pumps with floral-embroidered fishnet stockings, instantly adding a cool punk-gothic vibe from the ground up. The delicate lace pattern added texture and a slightly dramatic feel, making the outfit more interesting.

Chamberlain paired the shoes and stockings with a green dress that featured an embroidered floral lace panel running down the center of the bodice, revealing a subtle glimpse of skin.
The dress also had a plunging scoop neckline trimmed with frayed lace, giving it a soft vintage edge. A tonal band at the waist created a flattering shape, while the A-line skirt fell just below her knees.
Emma finished the look with a black cord necklace, adding to the edgy feel. She carried a black bag and completed the outfit with simple gold earrings.

Lili Reinhart Switches to Office-Siren Style in Jimmy Choo “Romy” Pumps and Aniye By Suit
For her Good Morning America appearance that same day, Lili Reinhart switched things up, opting for a sleek, polished yet sultry business-chic look.
She stepped out in the Jimmy Choo “Romy” pumps, a timeless style crafted from smooth black leather with a semi-matte finish. The pumps featured sharp pointed toes and slim 3-inch heels, keeping the design classic and elegant. They’re currently available for $775 at Farfetch.

When it came to the outfit, Reinhart kept things office-ready while still leaning into that cool office-siren vibe. She wore a black Aniye By set that included the “Shana” mini skirt and the $470 “Lavinia” blazer.
I really liked the fit on her, especially the way she styled the blazer with nothing underneath, which suited her perfectly. The blazer had a slim silhouette with a single-breasted button fastening, patch front pockets, a slit pocket, and flared sleeves finished with buttoned cuffs.
To finish the look, Reinhart carried the Antonio Marras “Caragol” bag in black. Its compact organic shape and soft lines in full-grain nappa leather gave it a slightly architectural, modern feel. She also added sleek $550 Balenciaga “Malibu” sunglasses with an extra lightweight frame for a hint of modern star power.

Alexandra Shipp Refines Business Chic in Pointed Black Mules and a Michael Kors Suit
Alexandra Shipp also leaned into a business-inspired look, which felt noticeably different from the outfit she wore on The Drew Barrymore Show. The overall styling looked sharper and more tailored, but it still had a fashion-forward edge that immediately caught my eye.
Her shoes were simple yet very on-trend. Shipp wore a pair of sleek pointed-toe mules in black leather. From the front, they looked like classic pumps, which is exactly what I first thought when I saw them. Then the open back revealed they were actually slip-on mules, making them feel a little more relaxed and effortless. The pointed shape kept them elegant while the mule design made them easy to wear and comfortable for a busy press day.

Shipp paired the shoes with a striking black outfit from Michael Kors. She wore the $2,690 Tissue Wool Crepe scarf belted blazer, finely tailored in Italy from wool crepe. The standout feature was the dramatic scarf detail draping down the front, adding movement and visual interest. Highlighting her frame and creating a sharp silhouette, the blazer was cinched at the waist with a sleek black leather belt.
Below, Alexandra styled the blazer with see-through, sheer black mesh pants that looked airy and fluid as she walked. The lightweight fabric created soft volume through the legs and finished with cuffed hems that gathered at the ankles.
Alexandra Shipp completed the look with tiny gold earrings, a few rings, and a black clutch with a long tassel, adding a touch of movement and texture to the otherwise sleek outfit.
