After spending over a year in our most comfortable clothes, it’s understandable if the idea of wearing pieces that don’t fall in the “undoubtedly cozy” category is one you’ve put off to the side. But don’t worry, you aren’t alone in this. At the 93rd Annual Academy Awards, attendees also opted for more comfortable styles, despite the formal dress code. But as luck would have it, these more casual shoe styles may have been some of the best parts of Sunday night’s red carpet fashion. Case in point: Chloe Zhao’s Hermès sneakers.

It’s not every day that you see fresh and clean white sneakers on the red carpet, but the 2021 Oscars ceremony was certainly not your average Sunday — especially in a year where comfort continues to reign supreme in the fashion world. The award-winning director, who won Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture for Nomadland, turned heads in her nude knit dress, also by Hermès. And if you’re asking us, it was her white sneakers — along with her pigtail braids — that felt truly unique (and on that note, refreshing!). 

If you kept an eye on Oscars fashion throughout the night, you may have also noticed that Zhao wasn’t the only guest in attendance with a preference for more comfortable shoes. And honestly speaking, we can’t blame them for their choices!

Scroll down to see the comfortable shoe styles Hollywood’s elite wore to celebrate the 93rd Annual Academy Awards and shop similar styles to wear to your next occasion.

Chloe Zhao

Nomadland‘s award-winning director proved that simple white sneakers are always a good idea — even at black-tie affairs. Style a pair with a sleek dress like Zhao or with something more casual. There’s no going wrong here.


Andra Day

If there’s anyone who can pair fuzzy slippers with a high-octane dress, it’s Andra Day. The actress, who transformed into Billie Holiday in The United States vs. Billie Holiday, paired black platform Ugg sandals with her shimmering backless silver gown for her post-ceremony celebration.


Questlove

If there was any doubt that Crocs were making a major comeback, Questlove showed up to set the record straight. The musician sported shining metallic gold Croc clogs with his all-black ensemble for the night.
