Around this time, Zoe spoke candidly with People about navigating early motherhood and rediscovering her relationship with fashion after welcoming twins.
She credited her family for encouraging a gentler pace—one that allowed her to embrace heels again only when it felt right.
Her honesty made the moment feel refreshingly real. “It hurts to be in heels still,” she admitted, joking that she once imagined a lifetime of daily Louboutins—before motherhood reminded her that nerves, muscles, and comfort all deserve a say.

For the event, she chose a plaid knit dress from the Maiyet Spring 2016 collection—a quietly striking piece that highlighted her legs and paired beautifully with metallic strappy Jimmy Choo sandals.
She finished the ensemble with an architectural M2Malletier clutch and delicate pieces from EF Collection and Melinda Maria—subtle touches that kept the overall vibe elevated yet unfussy.
