Katie Holmes Co-Signs 2026's Red-and-Purple Color Trend With an Unexpected Pair of Shoes

Katie Holmes is regularly ahead of the curve regarding incoming style trends. The actress and director—who has recently been spending time in the Hamptons—just embraced one of Summer 2026's boldest color combinations, and she did so with aplomb.

On August 20, the Happy Hours star attended the Michael Kors 45th Anniversary Collection Dinner in East Hampton, New York. Holmes was accompanied by her rumored new boyfriend, artist Jason Bard Yarmosky, and posed for photos with designer Kors and actress Naomi Watts.

For the occasion, Holmes wore a Michael Kors Draped Satin Tank Dress in a sumptuous purple shade, which retails for $3,290.

Leaning into Summer 2026's purple-and-red color trend, Holmes paired her purple dress with a pair of red Michael Kors pumps, featuring black heels and taken from the designer's Fall/Winter 2026 collection.

Unfortunately, Holmes's bag—Strathberry's Crescent Shoulder Bag in Vanilla—is no longer available, although fans of the brand's distinctive style can still shop similar items.

Both Princess Kate and Meghan Markle are Strathberry fans and have been photographed with the label's bags on numerous occasions. Unsurprisingly, Holmes effortlessly pulled off the royally-approved style alongside the purple-and-red color trend.
