Sarah Michelle Gellar effortlessly sported a pair of slingback pointed-pump shoes while speaking onstage during “Dexter: Original Sin” Cast In Conversation at 92NY.
The actress chatted about the show in front of a small crowd, which premieres tonight, choosing a pair of black pointed-toe pumps likely from YSL for the occasion. Constructed with patent leather material, the shoes featured a slingback strap with an elastic insert alongside a leather lining and outsole. The upper region of the shoe consisted of a sharp, triangular design typical of pointed pump silhouettes. A black colorway completed the model, which was rounded out by a sharp stiletto heel measuring slightly over 4-inches, and is in-line with what Gellar prefers wearing for upscale events and occasions.
As for her ensemble, the “Scooby Doo” actress wore a sleek punk-goth style minidress that featured lacing dispersed throughout and tailored structuring around the shoulders. The A-line fit was one that accentuated her figure. Wearing her hair in a wavy style, she kept her makeup simple.
In 2024, pointed-toe pumps continue to be a classic model that blends together elements of vintage and modern-day fashion, with the silhouette being praised for its versatility and ease of styling. Many brands such as Stuart Weitzman, Chanel and Gucci offer a wide range of pointed-pumps throughout the season, with many celebs choosing the style for their high-profile events and occasions.
Gellar, herself, is a fan of many pointed pump styles, having worn them frequently throughout the years where she has been in a variety of brands including Christian Louboutin, Prada and more.
