Nicky Hilton's Shoe Evolution Over the Years [PHOTOS]
Nicky Hilton is and has always been a style icon.
When it comes to shoes, Hilton’s picks are glamorous and chic, paying homage to her Y2K years first in the spotlight. The star often favors pointed-toe and platform pumps in neutral tones by Valentino, Chanel and Dior. Her red carpet looks feature similar styles embellished with bows and crystals by Mach & Mach, Giannico and Rene Caovilla. When it comes to off-duty dressing, Hilton wears sharp flats from her own French Sole line, as well as Adidas sneakers. In honor of Hilton’s eternal style, FootwearNews is recounting the star’s best shoe looks over the years.
