Tracee Ellis Ross brought sky-high platform shoes back with latest award show look
Tracee Ellis Ross is standing tall!
Almost a foot taller, in fact, thanks to the truly spectacular platform shoes she wore to the 52nd NAACP Image Awards.
She showed off her dramatic look in several Instagram photos taken by photographer Erik Melvin.
The “Black-ish” star’s statement shoes were white leather platform boots with golden toes from the haute couture label Schiaparelli.
Ross paired her elevated footwear with a “fitted coat-dress," "extra-wide pants in double twill wool," and "gilded brass dove hat," according to a release from the label.
Her avian headpiece echoes the giant dove brooch, also by Schiaparelli, that Lady Gaga wore at President Biden’s inauguration earlier this year.
Like other awards shows during the pandemic, the NAACP Image Awards looked a little different this year. While there was a live broadcast, the red carpet experience was primarily virtual, and many celebrities showed off their looks from home.
