Zendaya's Stylist Reveals the Untold Story Behind Her Signature 'So Kate' Heels

In a recent fashion podcast, Zendaya's acclaimed stylist shed light on the enduring appeal of Christian Louboutin's 'So Kate' heels for the superstar. The stylist revealed that Zendaya began wearing the iconic pumps at the tender age of 14. Initially, the shoes presented a challenge, but through consistent wear, her feet have become 'trained,' allowing her to wear them for extended periods and even perform dynamic movements like dancing and running downstairs. Addressing common inquiries about brand partnerships, the stylist clarified that the relationship between Zendaya and Christian Louboutin is entirely organic. 'We get no monetary anything from Christian Louboutin,' he stated, emphasizing that there has never been any 'pay for play' or sponsorship. While Christian Louboutin did provide approximately 40 pairs of shoes for Zendaya's 'Challengers' press tour, this was a gesture of support for an authentic connection, not a paid endorsement. The stylist noted that the 'So Kate' has become synonymous with Zendaya due to its perfect silhouette and versatility, complementing everything from gowns to shorts and jeans.
