Anne Hathaway “Les Miserables” Premiere In Non-Leather Boots

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 11th, 2012 in Actresses, Fashion, Film & TV.

Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway attended a New York city premiere of Les Miserables wearing a pair of animal-friendly, non-leather boots designed by Tom Ford.

The shoes, described as anything from “bondage boots” to something that “resembled both a knee brace and shin guard” may not fit everyone’s description as a great fashion statement, but Kudos to both Hathaway and Ford for choosing materials that are kinder to animals.

Several photographs of Hathaway wearing the boots can be seen at Starpulse.
