Ice Spice Balances Punk and Pastoral in Vivienne Westwood Boots


Ice Spice carried her Paris Fashion Week shoe streak into Saturday night, stepping out for a cocktail reception following the Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood spring 2026 show. The rapper stayed loyal to the house, wearing a full Vivienne Westwood look built around a pair of knit boots from the label’s fall 2025 collection.

The boots rose to the knee on a sculpted block heel, woven in cream jacquard with muted floral detailing. Ribbed paneling shaped the shaft, while a squared toe kept the proportions modern. The design’s balance of softness and structure echoed one of Westwood’s oldest throughlines — romance underpinned by rebellion.

She paired them with a matching mini dress in the same floral knit, a fitted bodice and softly draped hem pulling from the collection’s mix of tailoring and ease. Minimal jewelry and sleek curls finished the look, keeping the attention on the footwear’s sculptural lift.

The boots first appeared during Kronthaler’s fall 2025 show in London, a “character study” of the city’s Underground. “I wanted everything absolutely different,” he told WWD backstage, describing how he dressed commuters, eccentrics and every type in between. That season, he pared back overt sensuality for a more androgynous balance — oversized English suiting for women, heeled knits for men — and knitwear as a unifying thread across both. Kronthaler said the liberated-woman concept was inspired by Brigitte Bardot in “And God Created Woman”, calling her mix of softness and defiance a turning point for female representation.

For the rapper, the choice fits neatly into her recent pattern of collecting referential shoes. Earlier in the week, she attended Stella McCartney’s show in mesh square-toe pumps; before that, in June, she reached for SpongeBob-era Moschino platforms at the Kids’ Choice Awards. In Paris, she let the boots bridge what she’s always balanced best: playfulness and power.
