Mary J. Blige attended LaQuan Smith‘s spring 2024 show held on Monday during New York Fashion Week. Top stars graced the show’s front row, including Slayyyter, Saweetie, Lavern Cox and June Ambrose.
The “Real Love” singer sported a dramatic pair of brown thigh-high boots to her look. The footwear featured a pleasing suede texture, geometric square toes, zipper closures and 3 to 4-inch block heels that added a few inches to Blige’s height.

Considered the sexiest boot silhouette, thigh-high boots tend to stop mid-thigh for an extended leg-climbing look. The style is commonly made of patent leather or textural suede and is most often worn with short skirts or shorts along with lengthy dresses featuring high slits or tight-fitting trousers.

Blige’s look included a structural leather corset top which was layered underneath a sleek cropped quilted leather jacket fitted with silver hardware. On the bottom, the star styled micro denim shorts underneath a leather skirt featuring ample pocket detailing.
