Chloë’s ensemble was elevated by the metallic flair of her Marni heel sandals, adding a bold and edgy touch to her otherwise moody outfit. This attention to statement footwear reflects Marni’s enduring appeal among fashion-forward celebrities.

For instance, Alice Eve paired a Marni pre-fall 2015 color-blocked dress with an embellished black clutch and pumps at the Los Angeles premiere of Before We Go, showcasing the brand’s elegance on the red carpet.

Selena Gomez also turned heads in a Marni ensemble, combining a poppy red sequined turtleneck sweater with a deep blue square split skirt during a London appearance in March 2016, further proving the brand’s versatility and chic aesthetic.
