More from Footwear News
Paige Butcher was the lady in red while walking the carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” with her husband Eddie Murphy. The Beverly Hills event included the likes of Keegan-Michael Key, Loni Love, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Lil Nas X among others.
The comedic film stars Murphy reprising his role as Axel Foley. It is the fourth installment of the “Beverly Hills Cop” series, following 1994’s “Beverly Hills Cop III.” In the latest film, Foley is a police lieutenant who returns to Beverly Hills in a bid to protect his daughter Jane Saunders, played by Taylour Paige.
Butcher turned up to the event on the arm of her husband in a fitted red dress. The ensemble featured a draped bodice with a sweetheart neckline. She matched the look with a diamond bracelet and diamond earrings.
For shoes, she went with the Gianvito Rossi Portofino sandal. Relatively simple, the heel features a thick strap across the toe as well as a thick ankle strap that attaches with a circle buckle.
The suede sandals sport an almond toe shape. Hand-finished in Italy, they include a stiletto heel of about 4 inches.
The shoes have been a favorite of celebrities over the years. The likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Nicole Kidman, Diane Kruger, Olivia Culpo, Demi Lovato, Camila Cabello and Margot Robbie have all worn the silhouette in a variety of colors. Last month, Venus Williams wore a white pair while taking in the town at the Met Gala after parties. The Portofino sandal comes in 11 different colors.
Gianvito Rossi, a company founded in Italy in 2006, celebrated the ten-year anniversary of the sandal in April. For it, they released a limited-edition collection of 10 new metallic shades inspired by the city of Portofino. That collection came available in two different heights.
The shoe remains one of the company’s best sellers.
“The Portofino sandal embodies the essence of my vision: beauty in simplicity and quality, as well as in the attention to proportions. Its design is conceived to enhance a woman’s silhouette rather than prevail over her,” said Rossi in press materials for the anniversary. “After 10 years, our customers keep looking for it: I like to think that its lines have somehow got out of time to stay, becoming a cherished object women can always have within reach in their wardrobe.”
