Kate Beckinsale attended the launch of Stella McCartney’s Beatles-inspired Get Back capsule collection at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles on November 18, 2021, wearing one of the evening’s most eye-catching looks.
Her head-to-toe velvet ensemble paired psychedelic color with streamlined tailoring, while fluorescent Stuart Weitzman sandals added an unexpected burst of neon beneath the floor-length skirt.

The event celebrated Stella McCartney’s limited-edition collection inspired by Peter Jackson’s Disney+ documentary series The Beatles: Get Back.
Beckinsale joined guests including Kate Hudson and Ryder Robinson, embracing the collection’s retro influences while letting her bright footwear provide the strongest contrast.
Bold Fashion Choices: Stella McCartney’s Psychedelic Designs
Styled by Taylor Jacobson Wolf, Beckinsale wore Stella McCartney’s Fluid Velvet two-piece from the designer’s Fall/Winter 2021 Get Back capsule: a $1,095 long-sleeved crewneck top with the matching $1,195 floor-length column skirt.
The liquid-like swirl print blends shades of pink, teal, and blue with hidden “Stella McCartney” and “LOVE” typography, echoing the psychedelic artwork associated with the Beatles-inspired collection.
Produced as a limited-edition capsule, the matching separates quickly sold through at luxury retailers including Stella McCartney boutiques, Net-a-Porter, and Saks Fifth Avenue. While no longer available at retail, individual pieces and complete sets still surface occasionally through luxury resale marketplaces.

Beckinsale skipped statement jewelry, allowing her shoes to become the focal accessory.
She finished the look with Stuart Weitzman’s Fluorescent Nudist sandals, a vivid neon-orange version of the brand’s signature minimalist silhouette released as part of its limited-edition Neon Capsule collection.
Like the matching Stella McCartney outfit, the fluorescent orange Nudist sandals were produced as a seasonal release and have since been discontinued.

Although the exact colorway is no longer sold through Stuart Weitzman or major retailers, pairs still appear on resale platforms such as Vestiaire Collective, eBay, and Poshmark, typically ranging from about $80 to $200 depending on size and condition.
Two years earlier, Kristin Cavallari wore Nudist heels from the same collection with a Nicole + Felicia Couture dress, Kallati Aquamarine earrings, and a Citrine ring to the 2019 Emmy Awards at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

The iconic Nudist design itself remains part of Stuart Weitzman’s lineup, now offered in classic neutrals, metallic finishes, and rotating seasonal colors through updated versions including the Nudistcurve.
Hair artist Aaron Light styled Kate’s brunette tresses in voluminous waves, while makeup artist Chase Aston glammed her up with shimmering pink eyeshadow, a hint of blush, and a swipe of coral pink lip color.
Miwa Kobayashi also painted her nails red-orange.

How the Stuart Weitzman Nudist Became a Red-Carpet Essential
Kate Beckinsale’s fluorescent orange sandals offered a bolder take on the Stuart Weitzman Nudist, but the shoe’s appeal has always rested on its restraint.
Since its 2013 debut, the barely-there silhouette has balanced everything from graphic prints and sculptural dresses to monochromatic lace and classic evening gowns. These celebrity looks show how the Nudist became one of the era’s defining red-carpet sandals.
