It's True: Julia Roberts Just Brought Back Princess Diana's Favorite $70 Sneakers
From her philanthropic endeavors to her views on royal life, Princess Diana was ahead of her time in many ways. Her fashion choices were similarly trailblazing, which is why she remains a style icon nearly three decades after her passing. Some elements of her outfits might not be in style anymore—'80s shoulder pads, anyone?—but others are still incredibly relevant. Case in point? Superga sneakers.
As soon as I saw Julia Roberts wearing Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Sneakers ($70) at the Venice Film Festival, my mind immediately went to Princess Diana, who also owned the shoes in the same navy colorway. Emily Ratajkowski and the current Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, are also fans, but they both prefer to wear white Supergas. (Not to brag, but I've also worn them for nearly a decade.) Scroll down to see how Julia Roberts styled the classic sneakers at the airport in Italy this week.
