Michelle Rodriguez was photographed on Monday attending the “The Shrouds” red carpet at the 77th annual Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals wearing a smooth black pair of peep-toe Christian Louboutin pumps.
The actress looked elegant in the open-toe, patent leather shoes. The classic low-cut pump is perched on an architectural stiletto heel and sets off feminine curves to give an alluring effect. The Italian made shoe has a small platform in the front.
Rodriguez is known for mostly being a trendsetting sneakerhead, so the elevated look was a notable one.
Last May, the “Dungeons & Dragons” star attended the 2023 Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project’s (CTAOP) annual Block Party event in a pair of white leather high-top sneakers that featured flat rubber soles for a monochrome finish. The shoes had a lace-up design and an upper with metallic silver paneling for a boldly retro edge. Those sneakers were similar to a pair of white high-tops the actress wore while attending Comic-Con in July 2023. The shoes were designed with a clunky construction, and were equipped with a large tongue and all-white laces to go along with their tan rubber soles.
The Cannes Film Festival is an annual film festival held in Cannes, France, which previews new films of all genres, including documentaries, from all around the world. The yearly event brings out many A-list celebrities to its premieres, including “The Shrouds,” which is an arthouse horror film written and directed by David Cronenberg. It’s scheduled to premiere in France on September 25, 2024.
