Katie Holmes coordinated in black and white when she attended Christian Siriano’s grand opening of his The Collective West store in Westport, Conn., on Wednesday.

The store carries home furnishings, art and clothing. Holmes, a friend of Siriano, came out to cheer on the designer’s latest venture, attending with Coco Rocha, Debra Messing and Laura Linney.

Holmes made a bold entrance in a slouchy oversized button-down dress with a pronounced collar and a boxy, striking shape. The style had rounded, short sleeves that flayed out with a scalloped edge.  The bottom was a square skirt with a tiny slit in the front, the dress giving off an easy and summery quality because of the light white fabric. The “Giver” actress donned an angular black bag with silver hardware, keeping the outfit casual and comfortable.

Holmes livened up the celebration with the addition of cool sandals in black and white to match the color scheme. The strappy thong sandals had black and white strands crisscrossing over her feet, coming to fasten around the ankles while straps convened to create a thong-toe silhouette. The design coordinates well with the neutral colors and also match the angular nature of some of Holmes’ statement accessories. The strappy shoes are a clear winner, rounding out the outfit by matching design elements and colors to bring the ensemble all together.
