When model Hailey Baldwin [1] walked into the launch event for Magnum ice cream's first US store in SoHo, I didn't expect her to be wearing sneakers. But even after sharing that she had just broken her foot, the 19-year-old declared sneakers and a dress as her go-to look [2]. "If I'm going out to a party, I want to be in sneakers and a dress so I can dance," she told me. "I usually try to keep it pretty simple; sometimes I get caught looking very tomboy, but that's because I like to be comfortable."

Hailey's not the only fan of this rising trend. Celebrities like Kaley Cuoco [3] and Gigi Hadid [4] are making the unexpected combination look elevated. Keep reading for a few of Hailey's best outfits, then learn how to get the look [5].

Hailey's debunking the rule that sneakers can't be worn on the red carpet. Her asymmetric Mugler dress is fun and casual paired with all-back Stan Smiths.
