For footwear, the “Ben and Kate” star wore a pair of sharp Gianvito Rossi pumps. The $725 style featured a pointed-toe silhouette with black suede uppers, further streamlining her neutral outfit. The style also gave Johnson’s ensemble added sleekness from 4-inch tall stiletto heels.

Pointed-toe pumps have become one of this year’s most popular shoes, now that live events and a desire for glamorous dressing have returned. The style gives most looks a sharper appearance, thanks to its thin heels and triangular toes. In addition to Johnson, stars like Lady Gaga, Zendaya and Sarah Jessica Parker have also worn pointed pumps from Christian Louboutin, Sophia Webster and Duchessa Gardini in recent weeks.

When it comes to shoes, Johnson often wears sleek neutral sandals, mules and pumps on the red carpet. The actress often dons strappy or pointed-toe pairs by Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik and Miu Miu, among numerous top designers. When off-duty, she can also be seen in loafers and sneakers by Saint Laurent, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Converse.
