Meghan Trainor Pairs Jitrois Leather Jumpsuit With Clear Gianvito Rossi Plexi Booties

At the Los Angeles premiere of The Hustle on May 8, 2019, Meghan Trainor stepped onto the red carpet at the ArcLight Cinerama Dome in Hollywood wearing a black leather Patty jumpsuit by French fashion house Jitrois with Gianvito Rossi Vitello Plexi ankle booties.

The clear-panel booties naturally matched the fitted leather jumpsuit, adding height while keeping the focus on the monochromatic outfit. Trainor, who contributed the song “Badass Woman” to The Hustle soundtrack, was joined at the premiere by the film’s stars Rebel Wilson and Anne Hathaway, as well as singer Avril Lavigne.

Meghan Trainor Pairs a Jitrois Leather Jumpsuit With Gianvito Rossi Plexi Booties

Trainor accessorized the fitted Jitrois jumpsuit with rings and earrings by Melinda Maria Jewelry, keeping the rest of the styling simple to let the statement leather look shine.

The plunging V-neck and streamlined shape marked a noticeably sleeker direction from the pastel dresses and retro styling associated with Trainor’s early “All About That Bass” era.

Gianvito Rossi’s Clear Vitello Plexi Booties Complete the Look

The footwear was Gianvito Rossi’s Vitello Plexi ankle booties, a pointed-toe style combining transparent PVC panels with black leather. The clear sections exposed much of the foot and allowed the shoes to visually blend into Trainor’s otherwise all-black look.

At 5’4¼” (163.2 cm), Trainor has repeatedly turned to height-boosting footwear on the red carpet. Her YNS shoe history includes towering metallic Giuseppe Zanotti platform sandals, cutout Saint Laurent platform pumps, and sleeker pointed-toe heels, making the Gianvito Rossi booties part of a broader preference for shoes that add height without disappearing into the outfit.

Clear footwear was not new territory for the singer. At the 2016 Billboard Music Awards, Trainor wore Alaïa sandals combining black suede with transparent PVC panels, finished with silver beads that appeared to float against the foot. The Gianvito Rossi booties revisited the same transparent-shoe effect in a sharper, closed-toe silhouette.

She had also experimented with the ankle-bootie shape before. At a Coach event in New York in 2016, Trainor paired an all-black outfit with Via Spiga Oria caged sandal booties, a black suede lace-up design with intricate laser-cut openings and roughly four-inch heels.

Earlier that year, Trainor took a brighter approach to monochromatic dressing at the GLAAD Media Awards in Beverly Hills on March 28, 2019. She wore a yellow strapless Solace London gown with a matching drawstring overshirt, Alison Lou hoop earrings, and Aldo Gwibrylla heels concealed beneath the floor-length dress.

Christian Siriano Tailoring at the 2019 Grammy Awards

At the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on February 10, 2019, Trainor shifted toward tailoring in a white Christian Siriano pantsuit worn with Forevermark jewelry. She attended the ceremony with her husband, Daryl Sabara.

Taken together, these 2019 appearances show how Trainor’s wardrobe had moved beyond the pastel, 1950s-inspired styling of her early career toward leather, tailoring, monochromatic dressing, and more assertive footwear.

Platforms remained part of that vocabulary as well: at the 2016 Kids’ Choice Awards, she grounded a colorful skirt-and-top combination with Stella McCartney Elyse platform shoes, another example of her long-running preference for substantial soles and added height.

Why Transparent PVC Heels Keep Returning to the Red Carpet

Trainor’s Gianvito Rossi booties tap into the main appeal of transparent footwear: clear panels create fewer visual breaks across the foot, helping elongate the leg while functioning almost like a modern alternative to a nude pump. Because the PVC visually recedes, designers can retain a pointed toe, high heel, or contrasting leather details without adding another dominant color to an outfit.

That barely-there effect has made transparent heels a recurring celebrity choice, particularly when the clothes are meant to command attention. Clear panels can work with everything from monochromatic tailoring to embellished evening gowns while maintaining a lighter visual line around the foot and ankle.

The Catch With Clear PVC Shoes: Heat, Moisture and “Foot Fog”

The same material that creates that barely-there effect has a practical drawback: transparent plastic can trap heat and perspiration, making condensation visible inside the shoe. YNS has documented the phenomenon across numerous celebrity looks, including Taylor Schilling’s famously fogged clear pumps and other celebrity PVC shoe mishaps.

For anyone tempted by the look, YNS also has a practical guide to keeping clear heels and boots from fogging up, covering ways to manage the moisture buildup that can come with non-breathable transparent footwear.
