Sienna Miller is one of the few celebrities I would readily swap places with for the day. Not only to finally have a good root around her wardrobe (which I’ve admired for so long) but also to attend some of the many glittering events in her diary. With launches, appearances and parties all slotting into an average day, it’s Miller’s jam-packed schedule that I’d most like to steal. Exhausting? I’m sure. Exhilarating? I’m certain.
Whilst I spent last night on my sofa, I spotted Miller hit up two invite-only events over the evening. Dropping by Selfridges to attend a Tiffany & Co. cocktail hour before heading to every A-lister’s favorite restaurant, Chiltern Firehouse, the presenter squeezed a weekend’s worth of socialising into one Thursday evening. Most of us would probably panic about what to wear to such events, but rubbing shoulders with fellow celebrities is what Miller does best, and her wardrobe is perfectly primed to see her through.
For the Tiffany & Co. event at Selfridges, Miller styled a long denim dress with a black leather trench coat. It was her choice to wear a divisive shoe trend that piqued my interest the most though—as always, she proved that style-wise, she’s always one step ahead of the rest.Her black, pointed-toe, lace-upboots were quietly peeping out from the bottom of her dress.

Her black, pointed-toe, lace-upboots were quietly peeping out from the bottom of her dress, adding height to her look by means of the tall heel. The daring boots struck the perfect balance of polished and unpredictable, making the whole ‘fit ideal for a fun yet fancy occasion.
Now, had I not spotted this second image of Miller from later on in the evening, I wouldn’t have known that the boots actually extended well beyond her ankle, all the way up to her mid-thigh. Wearing the same pair to another event in central London later that night, Miller styled her over-the-knee boots with a sheer black dress adorned with gold sequins. An evening-ready ensemble that could fair London’s puddle-covered pavements, Miller’s shoe choice was a playful alternative to heels for an evening out.

I’m actually not all that surprised to see Miller style a thigh-high boot this week. Over-the-knee boots were all over the Chloé autumn/winter 2024 collection (amongst many others), and we already know she’s one of the brand’s biggest fans. Whilst the style might feel daunting to some, Miller proved that the trend is far more wearable than it seems.
Styling well with pretty miniskirts but also looking polished with midi and maxi styles, I predict this weather-proof trend will take off this season. If you’re interested in shopping the surprisingly versatile yet divisive shoe trend that Miller’s backing, read on to discover our edit of the best over-the-knee boots.
