Kaia Gerber Knows How to Wear the PVC Boot Trend

last updated 15 July 2020

Models are the first to debut the season's latest trends on the runway, and often they are also the first to test them out in real life. The latest example of this is Kaia Gerber, who was snapped attending an event in Hong Kong wearing the same boots in which she walked down the Chanel S/S 18 runway show. Any guesses as to which style we're referring to?

If you guessed the controversial PVC boots, you got it right. And one glance at her look proves the model knows exactly how to translate this tricky runway shoe into everyday wear. Gerber wore her clear plastic boots with a contrasting, elegant lace and sequin dress, a pairing that made for quite an eye-catching ensemble if we do say so ourselves. The rest of the look? Sleek hair, minimal jewelry, and soft, subtle makeup.

Our main styling takeaway from Gerber's latest outfit is to keep things simple when wearing the transparent shoes IRL, and don't be afraid to contrast textures. Now, read on to see her complete look, and then shop the tricky spring 2018 boot trend for yourself.
