Gwen Stefani Brings Punk to the Red Carpet in Furry Vivienne Westwood Boots at ‘The Fall Guy’ Premiere
More from Footwear News
Gwen Stefani attended the Los Angeles premiere of Universal Pictures “The Fall Guy” at the Dolby Theatre on Tuesday in Hollywood, Calif. while wearing a pair of Vivienne Westwood shoes. For the occasion, the “Hollaback Girl” singer sported a pair of black suede and faux fur platform ankle boots from the brand’s fall 203 collection.
From walking the red carpet to performing on stage, Stefani’s most-favored grunge-inspired footwear aesthetic transcends all settings. Recently, the star was pictured in a pair of sparkling Dr. Martens boots during her highly anticipated set with No Doubt at Coachella 2024. Putting a feminine twist on the brand’s iconized silhouette, Stefani’s boots were fully adorned in small black crystals.
Directed by David Leitch and starring Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling, “The Fall Guy” follows a semi-retired stuntman after going back to work following the disappearance of a high-profile Hollywood actor. A chaos-filled journey ensues as Gossling’s character gets wrapped up in the film’s mysterious plotline. “The Fall Guy” opens in theaters on May 3.
About the Shoes
Designed by Creative Director Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood in 2013, the brand’s black suede and faux fur platform ankle boots feature a platform base elevated at an estimated 3 inches and paired with an estimated 5-inch block heel. Additionally, the pointed-toe shoes are adorned along the top of the angled collar with long strips of faux fur in the same black colorway.
A number of stars have been seen in similar styles of edgy footwear from Vivienne Westwood. Most recently, Katy Perry was seen sporting a pair of the brand’s Super Elevated Court pumps, first seen during the Vivienne Westwood fall 1993 presentation. The platforms, measured at 8.25-inches tall, were crafted from a textured black leather and featured a slightly pointed-toe silhouette.

The brand’s most recent collection, under the helm of Creative Director Andreas Kronthaler, featured several lace-up shoes dyed in muted colorways and designed with exaggerated buckle, bow and tie details.
