Chrissy Teigen attended the Sports Illustrated Swim Issue Launch Party in New York City on Thursday, wearing Paris Texas sandals.
Alongside her husband and singer John Legend, the model arrived at the Hard Rock Hotel to celebrate the launch of the 2024 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Teigen appeared on the cover of this year’s issue. She has been working with the brand since her Rookie of the Year photo shoot in 2010. The brand also celebrated its’ 60th anniversary with a star-studded guest list that included Patrick Mahomes, Gayle King and Tyra Banks.
Teigen has favored strappy footwear silhouettes during her most recent outings. Earlier this week, she attended a Mother’s Day pop-up shop wearing yellow Bottega Veneta sandals. Last week, she slipped on Cult Gaia platform sandals for the 2024 Accessories Council Excellence (ACE) Awards. A couple days before the red carpet appearance, she was spotted in New York City wearing velvet Gianvito Rossi heels.
About The Shoes
Styled by Alana Van Deraa, Teigen stepped out in blush pink Paris Texas sandals. The Holly Maeva heels featured a suede footbed and several crystal-embellished straps including one that wrapped around her ankle and another that created a criss cross design against the almond toe. The sparkling accents covered the stiletto heel that brought about 4 inches of height to the look. The sandals retail for $660.
About Strappy Sandals
Designers have updated sandal styles with strappy designs, offering a unique twist on traditional silhouettes. This trend initially gained popularity in the 1990s through the collections of leading fashion houses such as Versace and Calvin Klein, which introduced playful designs to the runway. While each silhouette is distinct, the common features include a narrow footbed and a stiletto heel. Strappy sandals have maintained a steady presence in the retail market and saw a resurgence in popularity following their incorporation into Yves Saint Laurent’s Spring 2019 collections.
