The actress donned the metallic trend earlier this year. In February, she made a gold statement on the 2024 Independent Spirit Awards red carpet with Chanel‘s spring 2023 couture collection cap-toe boots. More recently, Williams stepped into classic black footwear while sitting front row at the Christian Dior pre-fall 2024 show at the Brooklyn Museum of Art.

Pointy Pump Style 

The iconic pointed-pump style, characterized by its soaring heel and slim stiletto shape, has become a timeless and elegant footwear essential. Reminiscent of the renowned So Kate silhouette from Christian Louboutin and the Romy style from Jimmy Choo, this shoe design features a pronounced arch and a low-cut vamp, making it both stylish and flattering. In recent years, the pointed-pump style has experienced a resurgence in popularity, gaining favor among fashion brands such as Amina Muaddi, Schutz, and Steve Madden.

The Met Gala raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and celebrates the Costume Institute’s annual exhibits. This year’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” celebrates the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” exhibit. The 2024 event is notably co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
