Spotted in NYC: Zoë Kravitz in the Petite-Friendly Way to Style Bootcut Trousers for Autumn

Zoë Kravitz has become a fixture for stylish off-duty dressing. Whether she’s channelling her inner Carrie Bradshaw in a pair of track shorts and a graphic T-shirt or taking cues from the Olsen Twins’ autumn wardrobe in an oversized pashmina scarf, the actor has an inimitable ability to make any wardrobe basic feel aspirational and elevated.

You can blame this on her gamine insouciance or innate instinct for subverting minimal staples with a grungy edge. (She was raised by a rockstar and is currently engaged to a pop sensation, after all.) Still, every time the star steps out, there’s this natural urge to dissect and recreate her outfits, given how both accessible and ahead of the curve they feel.

This last point was especially relevant in her latest ensemble, which featured a pair of low-rise suede bootcut trousers, vintage Manolo Blahnik beige heels, a cropped dark grey T-shirt and a woven leather bag. She also punctuated the effortlessly considered look with her signature arm cuff, further showing her commitment to bringing a slightly sleazy chic essence to any silhouette.

Of course, the most interesting part of this outing was her decision to eschew wearing the trending denim version of her bottoms, instead opting for a richer-looking napped pair. For the uninitiated, slim-cut bootcut jeans have become the unofficial autumn uniform for members of the celebrity style set, from Kate Moss in Paris to Suki Waterhouse in Venice. However, rather than following suit, she traded in the suede trench coats and suede loafers that usually define this season for an ab-baring, hip-grazing pair boasting a ‘70s-esque lace-up front.

If there’s anything to glean here, it’s that an unfussy yet cool autumn outfit doesn’t require anything too out of the ordinary to make it covetable. Instead, opt for a few simple tweaks, like wearing a sumptuous fabric in a new way or opting for an unexpected shoe choice, to inject some liveliness into your look. Though, you could always go the easier route and just shop pieces inspired by her look, which we have thoughtfully rounded up for you below.
