Whether or not you're thrilled about the return of cropped jeans, it's hard to deny how good the pair Zoë Kravitz just wore in New York City are. As is the case with any denim trend that makes a comeback, there are caveats with cropped jeans, with certain styles considered cooler than others. And of course Kravitz would choose the most 2026 version of the returning denim trend: low-rise cropped flares.
Kravitz's low-rise cropped flare jeans had a relaxed fit and a light wash, and the It-girl move is often to choose a shoe trend that elevates and perhaps even contrasts with the denim trend they're wearing. And in this case, she opted for an elegant style that French girls have long favored: block-heel pumps. Think of them as a minimalist version of the ballet heels trend everyone is shopping for as of late.
Kravitz's walkable suede shoes gave her outfit, which also included a cropped white T-shirt and Saint Laurent shoulder bag, a decidedly chic look. Scroll on to see it for yourself and to shop the key pieces—low-rise cropped flares and block-heel pumps— needed to recreate it.
