Regina King made a striking appearance in dazzling sheer pumps on the 96th Academy Awards red carpet in Los Angeles on Sunday.
The multi-faceted star delivered Cinderella inspiration in a pair of sheer pumps spotlighted by the dazzling mosaic of sparkling crystals that adorned them. Crafted meticulously, each crystal, like a tiny star, reflected the light creating an enchanting glow. The stiletto heel, with its sharp, angular design, echoed the crystalline theme of the pumps.
Donning custom Atelier Versace for the night, King popped in orange. The placed embellishments throughout added a touch of shimmer and sparkle, drawing the eye to the subtle contours of the gown. The cinching at the waist created a shapely silhouette adding depth and dimension to the overall design.
The Sheer Shoe Trend
The sheer shoe trend gained significant popularity in 2023 and continued into 2024. This trend involves using transparent materials like mesh, lace and clear fabrics in footwear, creating a see-through effect that allows the wearer’s toes to be visible through the shoe.
Designers and brands like Aquazzura, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Givenchy, Manolo Blahnik, Sandy Liang, Bella Belle, and Christian Louboutin have embraced this trend by releasing styles ranging from ballet flats to pointed pumps, catering to a wide range of consumer preferences and styles.
