Bebe Rexha’s Shoe Style
The New York-born singer and songwriter has been active in the music industry since 2010, penning chart-topping pop hits for herself and artists like Rihanna and G-Eazy. Her red carpet and on-stage style has evolved over the years, although she often leans into glamorous and edgy styles. On the red carpet, she opts for bold boots and heels from designers like Moschino, Sophia Webster and Giuseppe Zanotti.
Combat Boots
Originally designed to be worn by soldiers on the battlefield, combat boots are utilitarian footwear created for foot protection, ankle support and with a gripping tread. Classically made of black leather, combat boots, particularly Dr. Martens, were adopted by counterculture movements in the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s, including the goth, punk, grunge and heavy metal scenes. Dr. Martens and other style-forward combat boots remain a music festival fashion mainstay.
