The red heels were discreetly visible, emerging from under the actress’s bronze cape and silky slip dress as Jolie headed to the after party with her son, Pax Jolie-Pitt.

The sandal heels featured a patent leather finish for a glossy appearance and had crisscross straps that framed the toes. These heels contributed an additional 3 to 5 inches to the Oscar winner’s stature and included a rounded point toe.

Jolie’s take on “The Outsiders” transforms S.E. Hinton’s novel and Francis Ford Coppola’s film into a stage production. This premiere offers an updated perspective on the story, with an emphasis on themes of youth and identity as explored in the original works.

The music for the show is composed by Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance of Jamestown Revival, alongside Tony Award winner Justin Levine. The cast includes Brody Grant as Ponyboy Curtis, Brent Comer as Darrel Curtis, Jason Schmidt as Sodapop “Soda” Curtis, Sky Lakota-Lynch as Johnny Cade, Daryl Tofa as Keith “Two-Bit” Mathews, and Joshua Boone as Dallas “Dally” Winston.

Angelina Jolie’s Shoe Style

Jolie exhibits a preference for classic heels that enhance her height during public appearances, often favoring sleek designs in neutral colors such as black, nude, and gray. On a recent visit to her new Atelier Jolie studio in New York, she was observed wearing black suede pumps. Jolie also recently attended a Broadway performance of “Hadestown” in Christian Louboutin’s glossy Dolly pumps. For more casual occasions, she opts for more relaxed footwear like loafers, ballet flats, and sneakers from esteemed brands including Chanel, Everlane, and Nike.
