Natalie Portman Gleams in Satin Sandals on ‘Deadline Contenders Film: Los Angeles’ Red Carpet

Natalie Portman made a subtle shoe statement on the red carpet during the “Deadline: Contenders” event in Los Angeles.

The textured style was complete with a heeled base, bringing her attire a sharp height boost. The pair added a versatile base to Portman’s ensemble for the occasion: a red midi-length dress with a puff-sleeved silhouette, complete with a buttoned bodice covered in a delicate black floral pattern.

Portman’s attire for the event sharply matched Moore’s — a red short-sleeved blouse and matching trousers, paired with woven Bottega Veneta mules. The duo made a complementary style statement together, displaying differing aesthetics with a united color palette.

Portman’s shoe style is colorful and chic. On the red carpet, the actress regularly wears heeled sandals in a range of hues and metallic tones from Dior — who she’s served as a brand ambassador for since 2010 — as well as brands including Jimmy Choo and Piferi. Off-duty, she can also be seen in paneled Nike sneakers and Dr. Martens combat boots.
