Madonna strutted into the Saint Laurent spring 2026 show on Monday to kick off Paris Fashion Week. The singer sat front row alongside her daughter, Lourdes Leon, and the pair showed off a matching footwear moment at the event.

The mom and daughter duo stuck to one of the brand’s most popular shoe styles at the moment — a slingback high heel. They both opted for two different patent leather slingback styles, with Leon’s pair standing out thanks to an ultra elongated pointed toe that is slightly pinched toward the end. The heels also had a low, square-shaped vamp.
Both the Vendôme slingback pumps, which retail for $1,150, and the Apolline slingback pumps, which retail for $2,900, feature a similar silhouette. Leon’s shoes were made from a rich, glossy leather, which reflected the flashes from the cameras, making the shoes appear almost silver from certain angles. Leon paired the shiny heels with an understated knee-length dress in black, which featured a low neckline.
The “Like a Virgin” singer followed in her daughter’s footsteps, also sliding on a pair of pointed-toe pumps. While Madonna’s were also sharply pointed, they did not feature the pinched detail at the tip. The singer’s shoes also featured a square vamp, as well as a silver buckle enclosure on the side of the slingback strap. She paired the shoes with sheer black stockings, a lace pencil skirt and a formfitting leather jacket.

Madonna and Leon weren’t the only ones who wore Saint Laurent’s slingback heels for the occasion. There was a sea of patent leather slingback pumps both in the front row and on the runway, with the spring 2026 collection introduction a variety of colors like red, white and a rich forest green.
