Rachel Zegler was spotted in New York yesterday. While in the city, the “Snow White” star attended a Swarovski event where she spoke to an audience about her career path thus far and her fashion choices.
For the special occasion, the musician donned black strappy Giuseppe Zanotti sandals. The summer-ready style included glossy black uppers and a crisscrossing strappy construction that wrapped around her ankles and sat atop her feet.

Additionally, the silhouette featured adjustable buckle closures in silver and 2 to 3-inch stiletto heels, offering the thespian a substantial boost in height. The delicate wrap-around construction offers the silhouette structure and dimension, fixing the sandal to Zegler’s feet.

Giuseppe Zanotti has a host of neutral black sandal styles under their proverbial belt. Some of the designer sandal silhouettes are fixed with multiple straps, slip-on constructions and sparkling gemstone adornments. Similar to Zegler’s own footwear, the brand’s black sandal styles include the Gz Mya Sparkle, Roose 40 and Papillon 105 sandals.
Often defined by long straps that wrap around the ankle and up the leg for security, strappy sandals are a popular choice with shorter dresses and other silhouettes that showcase legs. A staple shoe of the warmer months, strappy sandals can be any heel height for versatile wear.

In a colorful twist, the thespian was dressed in an Area dress featuring a striking graphic print. Styled by Sarah Slutsky Tooley, Zegler’s dress featured a strappy heart-shaped bodice fixed with a crystalized pendant that transitioned into a flared short skirt.
The Area garment featured floral and heart-shaped motifs throughout the print. Said print included shades like blue, white, black, orange and pink, among others. The thespian’s dress retails for $1,395 and is crafted out of denim. The playful designer dress was accompanied by a Gedebe bag in a black crocodile-embossed mini bag that appeared to be shaped like a heart along with a variety of high-shine Swarovski jewelry.
Zegler is known for being a fashion fixture on the red carpet, often arriving in romantic gowns and statement styles. As for footwear, the Critics Choice Award winner tends to gravitate towards strappy sandals and sky-high heels.
