New Style Idea

Katie Holmes stepped out in a look that revamped wardrobe classics to celebrate Iris Apfel’s 100th birthday at Central Park Tower during New York Fashion Week. In addition to marking Apfel’s century of life, the party also launched the news that the style icon will create a collection with H&M, dropping in early 2022.

For the stylish occasion, the “Dawson’s Creek” star wore versatile wardrobe staples with a glamorous twist. Holmes donned a tan sweater featuring dramatic sheer cuffs with shiny gold beaded accents. She accented the top with sharp black pleated trousers, which also included a cummerbund-like waistband that buttoned on the sides.

Holmes also kept her accessories classic but elegant, wearing a black leather shoulder bag and long gold statement earrings.

The “Batman Begins” actress is the latest star to break out her pointed-toe pumps which have remained ever popular for their sharp and dynamic silhouette. Celebrities like Megan Fox, Anya Taylor-Joy and Nicki Minaj have all been spotted in pairs by Versace, Andrea Wazen and Dior in recent weeks.

Holmes herself has kept a busy schedule during New York Fashion Week, with Apfel’s party marking her latest appearance. The actress also attended presentations and runway shows for Christian Siriano and Kate Spade this week, as well as the grand opening of Vacheron Constantin’s flagship boutique.

Beyond her sharp off-duty style and footwear, Holmes’ experience in the fashion industry earned her the title of an Olay brand ambassador. Previously, she also served as the face of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, Miu Miu and Ann Taylor. Additionally, Holmes was the co-founder of fashion line Holmes & Yang, launched with her then-stylist Jeanne Yang, from 2011 to 2014.
