On her feet were a pair of black leather knee-high boots. The sleek shoe style featured a thin stiletto heel and a pointed-toe.

Hudson recently wore for the shoe style for the 2022 Pirelli calendar. The Grammy Award-winning singer posed next to several bouquets of roses that ranged in color from pink to red and purple.

The “Dreamgirls” actress elevated her embezzled look with a pair of black thigh-high latex boots. Thigh-high boots always deserve a moment as they aren’t the easiest option to style, however her mini dress gave them the moment they deserved.

When it comes to footwear, Hudson favors statement-making strappy sandals and pointed-toe pumps by Giuseppe Zanotti, Sophia Webster and Jimmy Choo on the red carpet. However, she also wears footwear by emerging designers as well, like Titi Adesa — whose sandals she donned for an interview with Oprah Winfrey in November.
