For 38 years, the annual FN Achievement Awards — often called the “Shoe Oscars” — have celebrated the style stars, best brand stories, ardent philanthropists, emerging talents and industry veterans. This year’s event saw many entertainment and style heavyweights walking down the red carpet in razor sharp heels and pumps. Here are some of the best heel moments from the red carpet.
Angel Reese
WNBA star Angel Reese, who was named ‘Style Influencer of the Year’, walked the red carpet in Gianvito Rossi‘s Montecarlo sandals, which is characterized by a crystal-embellished strap across the top of the foot, and finished with a stiletto heel of just over four inches.
Rihanna
Rihanna provided one of the biggest talking points of the evening as the Fenty entrepreneur walked down the red carpet in a pair of rounded open-toe sandals with straps, while supporting A$AP Rocky, who received the ‘Collaboration of the Year’ honor along with Puma.
