No sneakers on the carpet? No Cannes do.
The Paris fest’s famously strict dress code — recently updated with a red carpet sneaker ban — didn’t stop Kristen Stewart from boasting a chic high-low ensemble on the Croisette. The actor arrived to a photocall for her new movie “Full Phil” on Friday afternoon in a pair of vintage, worn-down saddle-style Nike sneakers — a silhouette just elegant (and Oxford-esque) enough to make the Croisette cut. The 1986 style is hard to come by online but these black-and-white Mary Janes from Dr. Martens are a solid dupe.
Her footwear of choice not only stood out for its informality but because of its pairing with couture Chanel, a sheer-two piece set from Matthieu Blazy’s 2026 collection. For Stewart, no stranger to breaking the status quo, the non-sneaker sneakers looked right at home on the Palaise steps.
