Katie Holmes Wore Every Fashion Person's Favorite Revealing Trend

Katie Holmes, queen of low-key trends, just wore a high-key trend in a very low-key way. And this is why everyone is obsessed with what she wears. She can pull off anything. The trend in question is cutouts, and they're wildly popular this summer. I basically shop for a living, and I come across cutout pieces on practically every shopping site I peruse (of which there are many).
While walking around NYC recently, as she often does, Holmes wore a crop top with a long white Christopher Esber skirt with cutouts at the waist (!) and her signature black leather Birkenstocks. Based on my Instagram, which includes many a fashion person wearing cutout items these days, this outfit is sure to have plenty of fans. If you count yourself as one of them, scroll to shop the trend for yourself via the likes of Zara, Nordstrom, Mango, Jacquemus, and many more.
