*Not* Boots and Ballet Flats—J.Law’s Most Stylish Outfits Depend on These 5 Key Sneaker Trends

      Jennifer Lawrence has recently transformed into a fashion chameleon. Following the Oscar-winning actress's complete wardrobe makeover to reflect the style philosophy of the Olsen Twins—featuring luxurious head-to-toe looks from The Row, and an eclectic mix of Indian pashmina shawls with La Ligne jeans, an Hermès Birkin, Prada cardigans, and Nike Air Rift sneakers—it’s now common to spot the actress in New York, sporting an eye-catching outfit. Fluctuating between two fashion styles—bohemian maximalism and relaxed minimalism—it's evident after a close look that a particular shoe trend has consistently formed the backbone of her casual wear, regardless of the style she adopts. Indeed, even when she carries the trendiest bag of the moment designed by Jonathan Anderson for Dior or steps off the red carpet in custom Givenchy, the 35-year-old has a clear fondness for trainers, making these modest flat shoes a fundamental aspect of her street style. To truly understand how Lawrence dresses, which is influenced by her creative partnership with celebrity stylist Jamie Mizrahi, one must recognize her love for unusual pairings. With an unapologetic and humor-filled personality—though at times she comes off as relatable and self-deprecating—it’s no surprise that trainers, often dismissed by others, have become the most frequent items in her wardrobe.

      (Image credit: Backgrid UK) Who else could pull off a Leset button-down shirt with satin pants and Issey Miyake slip-on trainers that resemble surgical shoe covers while maintaining chicness? Or make us covet a pair of Old Skool Vans that your skater boyfriend would have worn to death, combining them with an Oxford blue shirt inspired by Saville Row and Alaïa jeans? Lawrence’s belief in mixing high and low fashion with creative flair has turned her into a muse for many. Her outfits are easily imitable, grounded in everyday practicality and often feature the latest sought-after trainers, like Loewe’s ballet runner or the Puma Speedcats. In a way, isn’t this kind of accessible elegance something we all strive for? While she might be setting new trainer trends, her relaxed approach to luxury, with a hint of subversion and a free spirit that ties it all together, offers an excellent reason to embrace a pair of reliable trainers. Below are the five trainer trends Jennifer Lawrence is championing for 2026 and beyond.

      5 Trainer Trends Jennifer Lawrence Is Supporting in 2026

      1. Sports Team

      (Image credit: Getty Images) Style Notes: As method dressing—where actors reference their roles through their red carpet outfits—becomes increasingly common in Hollywood, it’s unsurprising to see this approach arise elsewhere. Lawrence showcased her affinity for team sports by donning a viral pair of Puma Speedcats while attending a World Series game featuring the L.A. Dodgers and New York Yankees. Her trainers made their first appearance trackside at a Formula 1 race in 1999, making it fitting for her to channel her inner athlete through her footwear. As Frank Sinatra said, take me out to the ball game.

      (Image credit: Backgrid UK) Style Notes: Anyone in fashion will tell you that perfecting proportions is the key to crafting a polished look, something Lawrence understands well.
