Paired with coordinating black fishnets, the style featured lush glossy black leather uppers, pointed toes and 2 to 3-inch stiletto heels.

Done and re-done by a myriad of brands, black leather pumps have stood the test of time, boasting longevity even against other more unique silhouettes.

Steve Madden, Christian Louboutin, Steve Madden, Ralph Lauren, Nine West and many more have black leather pumps comparable to Curtis’ own.

In a grungy fall-forward move, Curtis wore a reptilian black leather maxi skirt accompanied by a bright red sheer breezy button-down. Underneath the star’s top she wore a coordinating red lace bra, livening up her ensemble. Accessories were minimal and subdued in silver fixed with shiny gemstones.
