Black never looked so chic Gabrielle Union rocks Reformation’s patent leather pumps with effortless style.

In today’s spotlight of “pieces worth adding to your rotation,” Gabrielle Union’s choice of Reformation pumps steals the show. They serve as a timely reminder that sometimes, the most remarkable finds come from unexpected brands.Recently photographed in New York City on Thursday, May 2, for the release celebration of Pharrell’s new Tiffany Titan collection at the brand’s Fifth Avenue flagship, the actress and entrepreneur exuded sophistication. Styled by Thomas Christos Kikis, Union opted for an all-black ensemble, featuring a belted mini dress paired flawlessly with Reformation’s patent leather Pippa pumps.

This event at Tiffany’s flagship store marked just one of the many engagements during what seems to be a bustling week for the California resident in the city. Just a few days earlier, Union graced the red carpet at the New York premiere of Amazon Prime Video’s The Idea of You, a project she produced. While I’ve long admired Reformation’s shoe line, especially since their collaboration with the New York City Ballet last year, it’s disheartening to see them not receive the recognition they deserve online. Renowned for their array of impeccable wedding guest dresses and linen frocks, Reformation’s shoe selection remains seriously underrated.

Gabrielle Union isn’t the sole A-lister endorsing Ref’s shoe range either; Taylor Swift is also a fervent admirer. Swift was spotted wearing a pair of knee-high boots from Reformation during her time in New York in December 2023. Moreover, supermodel Gigi Hadid has recently been frequently seen sporting a pair of printed loafers from the brand.In essence, Reformation’s shoe collection offers a blend of style and sustainability that deserves greater acclaim in the fashion world.
