Kate’s leopard-print wingtip boots are from Alaia—the pair we spotted on Victoria Beckham in August of the same year. She has always been practical yet stylish in her shoe choices. In her own words:
If the plane lost all my luggage, and I was somewhere sunny like Ibiza, I would just get a bikini, shorts, T-shirt, and sandals. If it was somewhere colder like New York, I’d go for jeans, jacket, and a pair of Louboutins.
Her ability to mix practicality with luxury makes her shoe choices so iconic. Kate’s boots, with 4.75-inch heels and concealed platforms, reveal a striking wingtip print when folded.
Unfortunately, you will no longer find these boots online because they are sold out. If you fancy the unusual silhouette, you’re free to check out this dramatic pair from Bottega Veneta:

Beyond her red carpet appearances and high-fashion campaigns, Kate Moss has a signature off-duty style that’s just as captivating. She believes fashion should be personal and unique, saying:
With confidence, I think anyone can get a dress and make it their own. I don’t think you should have it off the runway and wear it like they want you to wear it… You have to make it your own. That’s what fashion is all about.
This philosophy is evident in how she mixes textures, silhouettes, and statement footwear to create effortless looks. Whether attending runway shows or simply strolling through the streets of Paris, her ability to mix textures and timeless pieces sets her apart.
