Kristen Stewart has walked the Oscars red carpet and given us all a lesson in comfort and style.

On Sunday night, the actor – who is nominated for the Best Actress award for her portrayal of the late Princess Diana in Spencer – was spotted walking the red carpet with her fiancée Dylan Meyers, and sharing a kiss in front of the photographers.

Wearing a pair of custom Chanel shorts and a coordinated satin suit jacket, she sported a white button-down shirt, silver necklaces and a pearl chain.

The shoe change has since been lauded by her fans, who have praised her for prioritising comfort at the awards ceremony.

‘Kristen Stewart immediately changed out of heels and into flats the second she got off the red carpet. Amen, girl, [sic]’ tweeted LA Times writer Amy Kaufman after spotting the shoe change.

‘Kristen Stewart walking the Oscars red carpet in a tiny hotpant short suit then immediately binning off the heels for loafers as soon as she's out of camera lines is iconic, [sic]’ commented another Twitter user.

In May 2018 the actor removed her heels and went bare foot at the Cannes Film Festival, following the film festival's ban on flat shoes.

The actor arrived wearing black Louboutin heels for the BlacKkKlansman premiere, but slipped off the shoes in favour of her bare feet.

'There's definitely a distinct dress code, right?' she told the Hollywood Reporter prior to the event. 'People get very upset if you don't wear heels or whatever.

‘I feel like you can't ask people that any more - it's a given. If you're not asking guys to wear heels and a dress, you cannot ask me either.’

Well said, Kristen!
