Katie Holmes just did preppy with a twist.

In the midst of promoting her newest film, Rare Objects, the actor was seen at a New York City screening of the movie on Tuesday night, where she put an unconventional spin on the preppy aesthetic. Holmes wore a crisp white pinstriped button-up from St. John's pre-fall 2023 collection. She tucked the blouse into a light gray asymmetrical maxi skirt emblazoned with a distressed white decorative pattern. The unique skirt additionally featured a mid-thigh cutout, which revealed another skirt—this time, a pleated white mini—underneath. Holmes coordinated the outfit with ivory square-toed ballet flats, a white shoulder bag, and mini silver hoop earrings.

Holmes previously spoke to BAZAAR.com about how directing Rare Objects has shaped her own personal fashion philosophy. "I directed two films back-to-back this year, and I did the costumes as well, which made me appreciate my friends who are costume designers and all the costume designers I've worked with in the past," she said. "It made me appreciate silhouettes and cuts and color in a way I thought I had, but when you put it on camera, when you are trying to tell a story, you can see how clothing can do a lot of the work for you."

She added, "We live in a world where we have a premiere and you want to look nice, and it turns into being a fashion person, and I'm like, 'Well, I just like to look nice, I'm not really a fashion person.' We all just want to look good."
