Dakota Johnson continued her affinity for minimalist, monochrome silhouettes in New York City on Thursday evening, arriving at the Venice-inspired event unveiling her as the global ambassador for Roberto Coin in an all-black Ferragamo look, complete with sculptural Eva pumps.
The actress wore a stretch jersey dress from Ferragamo’s ready-to-wear collection, featuring a structured internal bustier and gathered detail at the bust. The unlined design created a column effect, with a hidden back zip maintaining clean lines throughout.

She anchored the look with black patent Eva pumps, shaped with a tapered toe and Ferragamo’s signature sculptural heel. The 4-inch heel nods to the house’s archival F-wedge, reinterpreted in a streamlined, contemporary form with tonal painted detailing.
Johnson accessorized with jewelry from Roberto Coin, including a dramatic diamond collar necklace with black stone accents, curved to trace the neckline and finished with a fan-like diamond fringe, and a blue-stoned ring on her right middle finger and a statement ring on the opposite hand. Her hair was styled in soft waves with full fringe, and makeup was kept minimal with a matte lip and subtle eye.
The look was styled by Kate Young, who recently worked with Johnson for her Cannes Film Festival appearances, including a series of black gowns that leaned into sheer textures and angular cuts. Though Johnson is closely associated with Gucci, her latest outing in Ferragamo reflects a broader shift toward varied Italian houses and minimalist silhouettes.
At the “SNL 50” anniversary special in February, Johnson wore a black Gucci gown with a thigh-high slit and bold gold accessories by Sidney Garber. In Cannes, she rotated through sheer organza and beaded gowns by Gucci, and minimalist tailoring and shoe silhouettes — all within a monochrome palette.
The Eva pump rests on Ferragamo’s iconic “F“ heel — a sculptural shape first introduced in 1947, reportedly inspired by the curved back of a ship. Traditionally crafted in Italy from smooth leather, the pump features a sleek, pointed toe that balances the architectural heel. Over time, the Eva has been reinterpreted in various materials and colors, maintaining that classic, minimalist silhouette.
