Serpentine Gallery Summer Party 2023
Reaching new heights, Lyonne wore a pair of platform pumps from Christian Louboutin. The designer pair featured thick and lofty platform soles studded with silver rhinestone detailing accompanied by shiny black vinyl uppers, tandem ankle straps, breezy open toes and 5-inch block heels. The soles of the heels were blood red, a design staple of the French brands. The platform pair were worn with sheer black knee-high socks.
Accompanying her Christian Louboutin footwear, Lyonne wore a black and white off-the-shoulder minidress featuring silky white trim and a black velvet body. The look was from Christopher Kane.
Los Angeles, 2021
While out in Los Angeles, Lyonne opted for a pair of knee-high grandma-esque floral-printed booties that could be likened to a vintage couch. The footwear was crafted of high-shine sequined uppers cast in sage green and muted pink accompanied by zipper closures and triangular pointed toes. Short and skinny 1 to 2 inch stilettos finished off the printed pair.
Lyonne’s floral footwear was accompanied by a matching blazer dress in an oversized fashion fitted with striking gold hardware.
“Orange is the New Black” New York Premiere, 2019
Going gold, Lyonne attended the world premiere of the final season of “Orange is the New Black” in a pair of gilded sandals. The style was comprised of on-trend metallic silver uppers that transitioned into thick straps that sat atop the thespian’s toes tied in knots. Comparatively thin straps wrapped around Lyonne’s ankles, threaded through buckle closures, securing the pair in place. 3 to 4-inch heels finished off the high-shine set.
In contrast to her bold footwear, Lyonne wore a cream-colored maxi dress accompanied by a matching blazer, a white tie and a silver metallic clutch.
“Orange is the New Black” Q&A, 2017
For the Q&A, Lyonne donned a pair of black and white mules meant to mimic the look of a tuxedo. The style featured triangular toes, sleek and glossy patent leather uppers and dainty bow detailing mirroring the look of a bow tie.
Faux buttons and collar detailing decorate the front. Each shoe was backless, allowing Lyonne to slip in and out of the mules easily. Rounding out the set, 2 to 3-inch block heels gave Lyonne a walkable boost. The style can be likened to the collaborative work between Melissa and Karl Lagerfeld.
Alongside her preppy footwear, Lyonne wore a black button-up blouse featuring a coordinating black cape and satin bow detailing tucked into a red pencil skirt.
“Heaven Knows What” New York Premiere, 2015
Going colorful for the New York premiere, Lyonne wore a pair of multi-colored suede pumps from Charlotte Olympia that mimicked the look of stained glass windows. The Monroe pumps featured rounded toes, leather lining and patches of different colors of suede fabric, providing that multicolored effect. 3 to 4-inch stiletto heels finished off the set, offering Lyonne a substantial boost. The footwear was made in Italy.
In a contrasting manner, Lyonne wore a black suiting-inspired look with shiny gold hardware. The thespian also toted a black leather mini bag featuring coordinating gold hardware.
Christian Siriano Fall 2014 Show
Playful and fun, Lyonne wore a pair of polka-dotted black and white pumps to Christian Siriano’s fall 2014 show. The footwear featured whimsical printed uppers accompanied by black suede-capped toes and thick 2 to 3-inch block heels. The style acted to add interest to the thespian’s ensemble. Printed footwear of all kinds can often act as an easy and unique way to bring flare to any look. It is during this timeframe that Lyonne really got into printed footwear.
The printed footwear was accompanied by a white belted dress featuring flared sleeves.
78th annual Drama League Awards, 2012
Switching things up for the Drama League Awards, Lyonne wore a pair of ankle-length boots. Paired with black and white polka-dotted tights, Lyonne’s shoes were comprised of glossy leather uppers accompanied by sharp knife-like triangular toes and sleek lace-up closures in a coordinating black. Thick 2 to 3-inch block heels rounded out the set, giving Lyonne a substantial boost in height.
Accompanying her ankle-length footwear, Lyonne wore a black minidress layered beneath a matching cropped jacket fitted with gold hardware.
Paris Hilton’s CD Release Party, 2006
Clearly, Lyonne is a major fan of boots, especially during her earlier years. For her red carpet appearance, the “Poker Face” star’s knee-high boots were crafted of shiny taupe leather featuring thick black contrasting trim. Additionally, the boots featured slouchy uppers, almond-shaped toes and short wedge-like heels. The style was paired with sheer black mesh tights.
Accompanying her footwear, Lyonne wore a gray denim mini skirt accompanied by an aqua-colored top layered underneath a black leather vest and a fur-trimmed hoodie in pure 2000s fashion.
MTV VMAs 2003 Party
Simple but effective, Lyonne sported a pair of neutral gray and black pumps to a red-carpeted event. The pumps featured printed uppers and triangular toes topped with leather straps threaded through silver buckles that offered the footwear a grungy touch, contrasting the more feminine elements of the heel. Paired with sheer black tights, the heels also featured 1 to 2-inch heels crafted of black satin fabric, offering the actress a short and walkable boost.
Lyonne’s simplistic footwear was partnered with a silky black lace-trimmed slip dress, silver jewelry and a black nylon bomber jacket.
ShoWest Awards Ceremony, 1999
Grungy and casual, Lyonne wore a pair of black leather knee-high boots featuring a shiny vinyl finish. The boots had bulbous rounded toes and thick wedge heels that offered the star a slight boost. The “But I’m A Cheerleader” actress wore her black boots with equally grungy fishnet tights. Both the fishnets and the boots were popular styles of the time.
Keeping it simple, Lyonne wore her boots with a black leather miniskirt, a red top and a flowy black cardigan.
The Golden Globes will air on CBS on Jan. 7 at 8 p.m. ET.
