Samara Weaving Puts a Chrome-tipped Twist on Clear Heels in New York

She wore Gianvito Rossi Plexi slingbacks with a taupe dress and brown Frankie Shop bomber in one of her first outings since welcoming her first child.

Samara Weaving kept the clear heel trend going strong on Monday, pairing Gianvito Rossi’s Plexi metal cap-toe slingback pumps with a tonal taupe look while promoting “Carolina Caroline” on Monday in New York City.

The “Over Your Dead Body” star accessorized with oval silver sunglasses with amber-tinted lenses, repeating the colder metal note at the toe. She matched the see-through heels with a formfitting one-shoulder dress, a taupe number cut with a narrow diagonal opening at the neckline and light gathering through the waist. Over the dress, she layered The Frankie Shop’s Astra bomber in brown, an oversized zip-front jacket with ribbed cuffs, a ribbed hem and a soft sheen.

For Weaving, the look followed a more saturated shoe moment earlier this spring. At the end of March, she attended the Los Angeles premiere of “Over Your Dead Body” in Christian Louboutin’s Lasera strass pumps in Fever red, a 100mm pointed style covered in more than 2,000 red-toned strass with scalloped PVC cutouts along the sides. There, she worked through color, crystal density and cutwork. In New York, she moved to transparency and metal.

Maura Higgins also wore a black cap-toe Gianvito Rossi Plexi pump during her “The Traitors” press run in New York around the same time.
