2026's High-Vamp Heel Trend Pairs Perfectly With Lily Collins's Balenciaga Cut-Out Dress
The actress's outfit debuted at Paris Fashion Week just last month.
The sixth season of Emily in Paris can't come soon enough. On April 10, Lily Collins joined a plethora of cast members at 2026 PaleyFest LA to discuss what's next for the popular Netflix series. For the event, Collins plucked a Balenciaga outfit straight from the runway.
Just last month, creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli debuted Balenciaga's Winter '26 collection, which included Collins's deep red velvet cut-out dress. Featuring a column skirt and a delicately draped top, including a completely cut-out side section, the sleek outfit was a perfect fit for Emily in Paris's star.
Collins let her dress do the talking and kept her accessories simple and elegant. An on-trend pair of high-vamp heels—Balenciaga's $1,190 Duchesse Leather Pumps in Black—complemented her dress, and for jewelry, she opted for Cartier's Love Stud Earrings and a Cartier Love Ring.
