If you look up supermodels walking the runway in the early '00s, there's more than a little bit of footage of them falling over. That's because platforms were the shoes, think Alexander McQueen's iconic Armadillo boots, or anything your Bratz doll would wear. As long as they added 5 inches of height and were slightly difficult to walk in, they were 'It.' And now, supermodels are wearing platform pumps all over again — specifically by Versace and Valentino — thankfully with a lot less tumbling this time around.
At the Prince's Trust Gala last night, Gigi Hadid wore head-to-toe Valentino in the hot pink color that dominated the brand's AW22 show, which featured either entirely pink or entirely black looks. Pierpaolo Piccioli's pink is actually so vibrant, the particular shade will be added to Pantone's official color database, named "Pink PP" later this year. There's basically never been another pink as extreme as it.
While Hadid's $8,500 floral lurex jacquard mini dress is beyond stunning, there's just something so gorgeous about the bright pink stockings styled with the sharpest pink platforms we've ever seen. They're aptly named "Discobox" platforms, and should absolutely be worn to a modern-day disco. The shoes, though, are on their way to being worn everywhere and anywhere, specifically by every single supermodel and celebrity in Hollywood.
