Mary J. Blige took over the front row of Michael Kors’ spring 2025 show held yesterday in New York. Beyond Blige, notable attendees included Lindsay Lohan, Mindy Kaling, Kerry Washington, Chloe Fineman, Suni Lee, Nina Dobrev and Nicky Hilton, among others.

The performer attended in a pair of stark white thigh-high boots, a signature footwear moment for Blige. The footwear pick featured all the usual suspects for the singer including slouchy uppers, sleek pointed toes and sturdy 2 to 3-inch block heels.

Similarly, Blige wore a nearly identical style, hailing from Bottega Veneta, while at an Alice + Olivia spring 2025 presentation on Sept. 7. No matter the brand, thigh-high boots are a classic choice, especially as we get into the colder seasons.

Cozying up, Blige popped on a gray sequin hoodie in an oversized style paired with white leggings. Both pieces were likely from Michael Kors. As for accessories, the rapper toted a coordinating white quilted Chanel shoulder bag accompanied by shield-inspired Versace sunglasses in black and gold and large diamond-shaped earrings.

The “Just Fine” singer loves her thigh-high boots. The leg-climbing silhouette has been with the entertainer throughout her career, offering her the illusion of length and height when paired with just about any ensemble.
