Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber brought sleek style to the 2023 Time 100 Gala in New York tonight. The superstar duo had all eyes on them as they arrived on the red carpet at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
The “Elvis” actor donned a dark suit with a white button-down shirt and a black tie. The Golden Globe Award winner’s overcoat included a pocket square, pointy satin lapels and streamlined buttons at the center.
Gerber wore a gray sleeveless turtleneck dress by Khaite that included a dramatic pleated skirt. Sticking to a minimalistic moment, the “Babylon” star accessorized with a pearl bracelet. For footwear, Gerber slipped into a pair of PVC pumps. The shoes peeked out underneath her dress and were decorated with studs.
As for Butler, he complemented his ensemble with black leather boots. The smooth style featured an elongated pointed toe and was set on a square heel.

Butler’s shoe styles are often relaxed and easygoing, including Converse sneakers and lace-up leather boots. Since the “Zoey 101” star began working with stylist Sandra Amador while promoting Baz Luhrmann’s “Elvis,” he’s garnered a sleek streak with an array of Cuban-heeled boots from brands including Prada, Gucci, Celine, Jimmy Choo and Saint Laurent.
