Khaite founder Catherine Holstein has made sexy knits her signature, but her footwear packs a punch, too. The New Yorker’s knee-high boots, in particular, have attracted a loyal fanbase. Katie Holmes has been wearing the brand’s Davis boots for several seasons and now, Emily Ratajkowski wants in. 

Fellow Manhattanite Emily was seen wearing the black version of the sculptural knee-high boots at the SNL after-party on October 15, with a low-rise tiger-print skirt, a chocolate brown shirt— which she wore tied in a knot at her torso—and a Louis Vuitton bag. The pointy boots also come in soft suede and zingy snake and zebra prints—the latter iterations could have added to the wild appeal of EmRata’s look. 

“There’s a sense of strength to them... something slightly menacing, slick and really sinister that, given what’s going on, feels [poignant],” Holstein told British Vogue during the pandemic. The Davis was made with comfort in mind, featuring a low heel and supple leather upper. Proof that it delivers? The fact the Davis is attracting new fans, like EmRata.
