Queen Latifah brought her effortlessly cool style to the QVC Quintessential 50 All Female Celebrity Summit held at F1 Headquarters on Tuesday in Las Vegas. When it came to footwear, she kicked back in Gucci sneakers.

The “Living Single” alum gravitates towards cozier styles like sneakers and boots. For Dwyane Wade‘s Hall of Fame celebration last August, she laced into a set of Converse x Comme des Garçons Play sneakers to finish her outfit.

About the Shoes
Gucci’s Men’s GG Sneakers showcase a black and white GG Supreme canvas, black leather trim, interlocking G print at the back, black perforated leather details and a 2.2-inch rubber sole. The chunky silhouette of this sneaker exudes a playful yet retro vibe.
Constructed from a combination of black and gray GG Supreme canvas, the monogram motif subtly adds a logo-centric twist to the design. It’s clear that this one of her favorite styles as we saw her don the same pair to the Outsiders afterparty in New York City.
About Gucci
In 1921, Guccio Gucci established the eponymous fashion house in Florence, Italy. Throughout the past century, the label has solidified its position in the fashion industry due to its commitment to quality materials and exceptional craftsmanship. The iconic double G logo, designed by Gucci’s son, has graced the red carpets of numerous high-profile events, adorning top celebrities. The brand’s influence has attracted an impressive roster of global ambassadors, including Dakota Johnson, Harry Styles and Jared Leto.
Gucci’s Shoe Styles and Collaborations
In addition to their signature collections, Gucci has gained significant attention through its collaborations in the footwear sector. The brand’s iconic monogram print has been incorporated into popular footwear styles, such as Balenciaga’s Triple S Sneaker and the Adidas Gazelle. Collaborations have also highlighted Gucci’s own shoe silhouettes, including the Horsebit loafer and the Ace sneakers.
