At the 2019 amfAR Cannes Gala, held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France, Hailey Clauson paired a crystal-embellished Redemption mini dress with Christian Louboutin ‘Naked Bow’ pumps, letting the transparent pointed-toe heels become the finishing touch to her monochrome evening look.

Standing 5’11” (180.3 cm) with a US shoe size 10, Hailey Clauson naturally emphasized the elongated proportions of Christian Louboutin’s pointed-toe pumps.
Her crystal-embellished mini dress came from Redemption’s Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear collection, pairing structured shoulders, long sleeves, and an asymmetric wrap hem with geometric crystal embellishments that caught the evening light.
The sharply tailored silhouette complemented the clean lines of the transparent pumps without competing for attention.

Christian Louboutin’s “Naked Bow” 100 pumps combined transparent PVC side panels, a pointed toe, a slender T-strap, and an oversized crystal-trimmed satin bow to create the illusion of a floating shoe while showcasing the house’s signature red sole.
The design became a favorite on the red carpet, with Natalia Dyer, Aubrey Plaza, and Hailey Clauson each styling the distinctive pumps in their own way. Produced as part of Christian Louboutin’s late-2010s seasonal collections, the style has since been discontinued and is now found primarily through reputable luxury resale marketplaces.
Because authentic pairs command premium resale prices, it’s also worth knowing how to spot fake Christian Louboutin shoes before investing in a pre-owned pair.

Earlier that year, at the Art of Elysium’s 12th Annual Celebration Heaven in Los Angeles, Clauson chose a sculptural black Dundas design by Peter Dundas.

The dramatic one-shoulder silhouette, architectural cutouts, and liquid-look fabric contrasted with her Cannes appearance while again drawing attention to statement footwear, this time through mixed animal-print sandals.

Her mixed animal-print sandals layered contrasting leopard-inspired and zebra-style patterns across the straps, adding texture and visual contrast to the minimalist black gown while keeping the focus on her footwear.

Hailey Clauson’s Heels Match Her Statuesque Red-Carpet Style
From Christian Louboutin’s transparent “Naked Bow” pumps to boldly patterned statement sandals, Clauson consistently chooses footwear that complements her 5’11” frame rather than downplaying it. These similarly statuesque stars offer more examples of how tall actresses and models wear pointed pumps, sculptural sandals, and dramatic heels with confidence.
