Katie Holmes wore Saint Laurent from head to toe for MCC Theater’s inaugural Let’s Play! Celebrity Game Night at The Garage in New York City on November 3, 2019. Styled by Victoria Bartlett, her Fall 2019 look paired sharply tailored separates with the label’s two-tone Zoe patent-leather pumps.

The shoes were an especially effective match for Saint Laurent’s high-rise wool-twill pants. Cut slim through the leg and cropped at the ankle, the trousers left the pumps fully visible rather than letting them disappear beneath the hem.

Holmes wore the pants with a pussy-bow flocked silk-blend chiffon blouse, also from Saint Laurent’s Fall 2019 collection. The sheer blouse featured white flocked square dots, while a crystal-embellished black leather belt defined the waist.

Katie Holmes’ Saint Laurent Zoe Pumps: Two-Tone Patent Leather and an 85mm Heel
Her Saint Laurent Zoe pumps combined neutral patent leather with a contrasting black cap toe. Made in Italy, the style was set on an 85mm, or approximately 3.3-inch, stiletto heel and featured a deep-cut vamp with a sharply pointed toe.
The low-cut vamp exposed more of the top of Holmes’ foot, visually extending the line from her ankle into the pointed toe. Paired with the tapered trousers, the two-tone pumps became one of the strongest details in an otherwise predominantly black Saint Laurent look.

The Zoe name appeared across several Saint Laurent pointed-pump variations rather than referring to only one exact configuration. Reese Witherspoon wore a cream Saint Laurent Zoe version with a sharply notched pointed toe and contrasting black ankle straps at a 2019 The Morning Show event, providing a useful comparison with Holmes’ strapless cap-toe pair.
Witherspoon returned to the silhouette for the 2020 New York Film Critics Circle Awards, where her Saint Laurent Zoe pumps again combined cream leather with contrasting black straps. Those appearances show how Saint Laurent adapted the Zoe’s pointed shape and two-tone palette across closely related designs.
The style is also closely associated with Zoë Kravitz, who later wore red Saint Laurent Zoe slingback pumps while promoting Blink Twice. Although Kravitz’s slingbacks differ from Holmes’ 2019 pumps, both versions share the Zoe family’s sharply pointed, slim-heeled profile.
How Katie Holmes’ Shoe Style Moves Between Classic Pumps and Statement Heels
Holmes regularly shifts between understated pointed pumps and more expressive footwear, using the shoes to change the character of otherwise polished looks. These appearances show how she has worn everything from metallic-tipped pumps and slingbacks to zebra-print boots and embellished evening heels.
