The 5 Shoe Trends *Everyone* Should Own, According to New Stuart Weitzman Ambassador Emma Chamberlain

Ask any celebrity about their favorite red carpet shoes, and you're bound to hear one brand over and over again: Stuart Weitzman. Honestly, which A-lister doesn't own a pair? Ubiquitous in Hollywood, the label could’ve chosen to partner with any one of its many high-profile fans, but Stuart Weitzman made an exceptionally smart choice in Emma Chamberlain. Thanks to her down-to-earth personality, she has a unique ability to connect with fashion lovers who see her as not just an industry insider but also their most stylish friend.

Today, Chamberlain has been revealed as Stuart Weitzman's new global ambassador and star of its fall 2025 campaign—a match made in fashion heaven. "I got introduced to Stuart through my stylist, Jared Ellner," Chamberlain told Who What Wear. "He started putting me in Stuart's heels for red carpet events. It's been our go-to for both basic shoes and exciting, fun shoes that spice up the outfit. We've done it all with Stuart. That relationship was so genuine and so organic. I couldn't have even imagined that we're working together now—it's a dream. It was truly an organic discovery of a brand, which I think is rare in this industry. So it's always cool when that happens." Scroll down to see Chamberlain's latest campaign and read our full Q&A.

I love how the knee-high boots were styled with long shorts in the campaign. What's your favorite way to style knee-high boots IRL?

I actually really do love long shorts IRL. It was funny because I literally wore an almost identical outfit to the set. I wore long black shorts and a white tank top. But a boot is great to elevate that look. I also love doing a tall boot with a long skirt. I like not being able to see ankles. Very elevated, very chic. That's sort of my go-to. I absolutely love that look, and it never fails.

Some people struggle with nailing the proportions when styling boots. Do you always avoid having a gap between the bottom of your skirt and the top of your boots, like you mentioned?

I try not to have too many rules. Sometimes something I thought went against my fashion philosophy will end up being cool, so I try not to box myself in as much these days. But I will say for the most part, I don't usually like to have the ankle exposed. I think that covering the top of the boot tends to look the nicest. But that doesn't mean it's always the right answer, you know?

There's a pair of ankle-ish boots in this collection. I tend to wear those with long pants. You're not going to see the top of ankle boots under long pants, which is nice, whereas a taller boot might poke through the pants. However, wearing a knee-high boot with a little miniskirt is so cute and quite trendy.
