The black calf leather boots are the French luxury footwear brand’s Condora Botta. The style is part of the brand’s Condora collection, which features pumps, slingbacks, sandals, booties and more. The singer’s sleek knee-high boot features a zip fastening on the inner side of the leg.

The boot has a sharp pointed toe like a bird’s beak. It stands tall on an 85mm slanted heel, the same heel found on all the Condora shoe designs. Jackson’s pair retails for $1,995 on the Louboutin website. The style is also available in a thigh-high boot version, the Condora Botta Alta, with a heel measuring 100mm, and retails for $2,495.

Jackson, who was styled by Laurel Thomson, paired the stylish boots with a Tom Ford long-sleeve cocktail minidress. The frock was made from a black satin material and featured a turtleneck design with a train. The dress retails for $6,590. The singer paired the look with sheer black stockings, and wore her hair in a light brown bob with a side part that was styled in soft waves.

It was a big night for Jackson, who has made dancing a significant and integral part of her artistry throughout her decades-long career. Liza Minnelli returned to the 2025 Gala of the Stars to present Jackson with the Icon Award as part of the annual benefit for Dancers Against Cancer. “In a few months, maybe six or seven months, I’m going to be 60 years old. And I have to tell you, I have no plans to stop dancing,” the “Rhythm Nation” said while accepting her award.

October has been a busy and fashion-forward month for Jackson, who isn’t known for spending a lot of time in the public eye. The superstar attended the inaugural British Museum Ball in London last week, wearing a bright red chiffon poncho dress by Stephane Rolland.

At the start of the month, the “Poetic Justice” star reunited with her niece, Paris Jackson, at the Tom Ford fashion show during Paris Fashion Week. She wore a long black silk skirt with a lambskin shirt and matching blazer, and a pair of Tom Ford patent leather pumps. Take a look at some of her best fashion moments through the years.
