Mary Janes are a mainstay in Olivia Rodridgo s wardrobe. She s embraced every style from multi-strapped to square-toed to platform, but her latest pair skews classic—and seasonless. The Vogue cover star visited SiriusXM in Los Angeles in a pleated black mini-skirt, a deliberately unraveled knit tee, and a pair of patent leather Mary Janes styled for summer (fitting considering her recent goth-girl edge).
The Mary Janes renaissance began on the fall 2022 runways, and the revivals of the timeless style were overall cooler, less-twee. The shoes fit nicely within Rodrigo s 1990s aesthetic, playing well with socks (another go-to) and bare legs alike. But this latest pair, with its high-shine finish, single (and pearled!) strap, and demure block heel proves that black patent leather should not be reserved for fall—or a specific styling approach. Whether you favor strapped ballet flats, pumps, or platforms, a pair of Mary Janes communicates a kind of effortless sophistication.
