10 Celebrity Shoe Moments That Had Everyone Talking

Celebrities understand that fans admire more than just their talent—they’re equally fascinated by their appearance. From glamorous red carpet ensembles to carefully chosen hairstyles and accessories, every detail sparks conversation both online and in person. However, it’s not always a stunning gown that grabs attention; sometimes, their shoes play the starring role and all eyes are drawn to their feet.

Rihanna is known for her love of eye-catching outfits and footwear. What’s more interesting is that she likes to combine them. At the Met Gala 2017, she donned a striking dress made of multiple petals and paired it with red lace-up heels with straps wound all the way up to her thighs.

At the 2017 Emmy Awards, Nicole sported a beautiful red dress with a plunging neckline and full skirt. But all the attention was drawn not to her gown but to her shoes because they didn’t quite match. One stiletto featured a bejeweled strap, while the other one was left unadorned. But it turned out that this was the fashion designer’s idea, and both shoes belonged to the same pair.

At a glamorous event in 2018, Britney stunned in a sheer silver minidress, covered in crystals and glitter. She paired it with striking Giuseppe Zanotti heeled sandals—nearly 5-inch pumps with three shimmering straps wrapping around her feet and ankles.

But there was a problem. The front of the shoes wouldn’t stay on. They seemed too narrow, leaving her toes struggling to fit properly.

Marion Cotillard

The French actress is a big fan of eye-catching footwear. Almost all of her red carpet outfits include a striking pair of shoes. For example, she appeared at the Jean-Paul Gaultier fashion show in Paris wearing heels of different shapes.

And one time, she sported stiletto sandals that were made from clear plastic. At a certain angle, it might have seemed that she walked barefoot.

Kourtney Kardashian

For a casual outing in LA, Kourtney Kardashian kept it chic in a cropped dress shirt and gray trousers. But it wasn’t her outfit that caught everyone’s attention—it was her shoes. She opted for clear, transparent heels, which revealed an unexpected detail. As the day went on, steam visibly formed inside, a telltale sign that her feet were sweating.

Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka is known for her love of fashion. At the 2019 Billboard Music Awards Red Carpet, for example, she paired a gorgeous silver ensemble with clear sandals made from PVC.

Margot Robbie

Margot is not afraid to wear extravagant shoes. For example, she was once noticed sporting shoes that featured all fashion trends of that season: they were mules inspired by western boots with square toes and metallic details.
