Kate Hudson glittered in gold at the 2025 Breakthrough Prize held tonight in Santa Monica.
The “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” actress shone bright in a pair of Jimmy Choo Max platform sandals. The glimmering style currently retails for $251 via The Outnet. Shimmering metallic gold leather uppers accompany thick straps that sit across the toes and thin but sturdy ankle straps threaded through adjustable buckle closures that keep the style fixed to Hudson’s feet. The shoe creates the illusion of both length and height, offering the wearer an appealing boost.
Open almond-shaped toes gave way to lofty platform soles and even loftier stiletto heels standing at around 5.7 inches in height, offering Hudson a sky-high boost. The style offered the thespian’s look a glamorous touch while creating a cohesive style narrative. Platforms of all kinds are commonplace in many celebrities’ wardrobes, Hudson’s included.
