Chelsea Clinton spoke to a crowd on stage during the Clinton Global Initiative 2023 held yesterday in New York. The initiative brought together like-minded figureheads in the heart of the city to implement solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Attendees included Hillary and Bill Clinton, Orlando Bloom, Dwayne Wade and Alok Vaid-Menon among others.

The global health advocate donned a daring pair of nude pumps that offered her ensemble a neutral base. Chelsea’s pair featured a patent leather glossy high-shine finish along with chunky and slightly elevated soles and sharp pointed toes that transitioned into 3 to 4-inch stiletto heels.

The platform trend is heavily sought out and can be found in a range of prints and colors from top brands like Gucci, Valentino and Burberry. Chelsea has worn the height-boosting style on many occasions, paired with a variety of flowing dresses and trousers.

For the conference, the writer was outfitted in a light blue maxi dress. The garment featured voluminous bell sleeves and a sweeping skirt. The dress was belted, defining the star’s silhouette. The garment acted as a perfect piece that seamlessly transitioned from summer to fall thanks in part to its breezy construction and color.

Where shoes are concerned, Clinton regularly wears pointed-toe, peep-toe and rounded pumps in an array of sharp primary or tonal neutral colors, hailing from brands including Christian Louboutin. In fact, in the past, Clinton has even gone viral from her shoes’ worn-in state — a coincidence simply owed to the activist, producer and author’s fast-paced, busy schedule.
