Karrueche Tran Soars in Mesh & Satin Pumps at GLAAD Media Awards 2023 – Footwear News
Karrueche Tran brought daring glamour to the red carpet for the 2023 GLAAD Media Awards in New York City.
Tran arrived to the awards at the New York Hilton hotel in Manhattan on Saturday night, sparkling in a sleek Christian Siriano gown. The “Claws” actress’ one-shouldered style featured a black satin bandeau and matching matte paneling, overlaid with a matching layer of crystal-studded black mesh — complete with a tight off-the-shoulder sleeve. The style was finished with a draped train that circled around the floor, as well as dynamic thigh-high slit.

For footwear, Tran slipped into a sharp pair of Dolce and Gabbana pumps to complete her outfit. The star’s style featured smooth black satin uppers with triangular pointed toes, as well as rounded closed counters. A set of thin stiletto heels totaling at least 4 inches in height finished the style with a dynamic height boost, complementing her outfit’s dark color scheme and textures while remaining slick and sharp.

When off-duty, she also wears athletic sneakers by Nike and Yeezy, as well as low-top sneaker styles by Puma.
