A high-profile attendee of this year’s Met Gala discovered that a runway-ready look can come with unexpected consequences. Following the prestigious event, the celebrity shared a distressing ordeal involving her custom footwear.
In videos posted to social media, the star was seen and heard in clear distress as members of her team attempted to free her feet from a pair of designer stiletto heels. The shoes, which had been secured with adhesive tape to ensure stability on the famous staircase, had seemingly bonded to her skin.
“Now my feet are stuck in the shoes!” she exclaimed in the clip, addressing the creative director who had styled her for the evening. The footage showed attempts to loosen the adhesive by spraying water on her feet.
The fashion risk, however, appeared to pay off on the carpet. The attendee made a striking appearance in a form-fitting black mesh gown that complemented the dramatic footwear. She attended the gala, which celebrated a theme highlighting the significance of Black style and tailoring, without her actor partner, who was documented watching a basketball playoff game elsewhere.
Thankfully, the story had a pain-free conclusion. In a later social media update, the star reassured followers by showing her unharmed feet, confirming the situation was ultimately resolved. The incident served as a stark reminder of the extreme measures sometimes taken for fashion’s biggest night.
