‘Ginny & Georgia’ Star Brianne Howey Shines in Jimmy Choo Crystal Bing Mules at the ‘Kinda Pregnant’ New York Premiere
Brianne Howey made a case for winter magic in an understated-yet-glam sparkly ivory look on the “Kinda Pregnant” New York premiere red (pink) carpet.
The actor (and her smile) shined in a sequin top and matching maxi skirt set elevated by elegant Jimmy Choo Bing 100 patent leather crystal strap mules. The sleek shoes feature a sharp pointed-toe, 100mm (3.9 inches) stiletto heel and chunky crystals across the strap.
The Bing 100 patent leather crystal strap mules come in ballet pink and black, while the shorter Bing 65 style also come in the off-white linen, yet the Bing can be made-to-order in a variety of fabrics and colors at either heel height.
Mules, which are essentially backless shoes, are very on-trend at the moment, especially with kitten or block heels, particularly with pointed-toes or open-block-toes, as well as a wide variety of flat styles. Mules were first popularized in the 17th century as bedroom slippers, later becoming fashionable thanks to wealthy women in the French court.

The shoe variety reemerged in the 1950s, with stars like Marilyn Monroe favoring the style — especially the more modern open-toe style. Mules recently saw a bump in popularity in the 2010s in all types of fashion, and again in 2024.
The “Ginny and Georgia” star is a fan of trendy and classic heels and stiletto sandals, often favoring a statement shoe like the Bing mules, a pointed-toe croc-print pump or a barely-there pair of clear-strap stilettos.
In 2021, Billy Porter and Jimmy Choo partnered to offer inclusive extended so people of all genders can look glam in classic silhouettes from the designer. The Bing 100 crystal strap mule and the Love 100 pointed-toe pump are currently available in sizes ranging from EU36 to EU45.
The Tyler Spindel-directed comedy “Kinda Pregnant” stars Amy Schumer alongside Howey, Jillian Bell, Urzila Carlson, Lizzie Broadway and Will Forte and debuts on Netflix tomorrow. The cast attended the New York premiere of the film at the Paris Theater in Manhattan yesterday, alongside a comedian-filled, star-studded guest list, including Keegan-Michael Key, Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Natasha Bedingfield and Bethenny Frankel.
