Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor Coordinate in Black Shoes for ‘Patriots’ Broadway Premiere
Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor arrived at the premiere of the Broadway show “Patriots” at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre on April 22 in New York City while sporting a pair of black suede boots and black leather pointed-toe flats respectively.
Paulson typically gravitates towards more classic footwear silhouettes, having been photographed while sporting several pairs of monochromatic boots, pumps and sneakers. In fact, the “American Horror Story” actress attended Louis Vuitton‘s fall 2023 fashion show, held during Paris Fashion Week, in a pair of the brand’s silhouette ankle boots. Paulson‘s black booties featured knit uppers and ribbed shafts accented by Vuitton’s signature monogrammed floral pattern. Additionally, the shoes were crafted with brown-coated 3.1-inch canvas heels monogrammed in the same pattern.
