Salma Hayek Is Perfect For Fall in Her Favorite Knee-High Platform Boots on ‘Jimmy Fallon’
More from Footwear News
Salma Hayek Pinault appeared for a chat on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” this week. While on the broadcast, the actress promoted her new HBO show “Like Water for Chocolate.” For the filming she wore a black mini dress, tights and a pair of statement shoes.
Pinault’s shoes were perfect for the fall weather. They were from Casadei, knee-high and done in shiny leather. The boots featured a chunky platform and a block heel that measured 6.63 inches. The style also featured a full zip up the side. The construction also includes stitching that goes across the front and then a tongue that comes to a point on the shaft of the shoe.
Yoox is selling the Casadei boot for $1,027.
The “From Dusk Till Dawn” performer likes the shoe. In September she wore the same boots with their block heels to a Baby2Baby volunteer event in New York. She also was wearing them back in 2022 when she made an appearance on the “Today Show.”
The tall platform boots are a silhouette that are increasing in popularity as of late. Marc Jacobs introduced his Kiki boot style which has been in heavy rotation with celebrities for the past two years. Celebrities like Lady Gaga, Ice Spice, Cardi B and Teyana Taylor have worn them. Nicky Hilton just wore a short version of the boot to the WSJ. Innovator Awards this week.
Taylor Swift has been wearing quite a number of boots as well, one of which were a platform style from Vivenne Westwood. She wore those to a Kansas City Chiefs game on October 7. It was Westwood’s Grace boot which she had worn previously to an after party for the MTV Video Music Awards in September.
Of course it’s not just tall styles: Ciara just wore platform boots from Bebe to the CFDA Awards and to an after party for that event on Monday night. In addition, during fashion week Cardi B wore a pair of croc embossed Vivienne Westwood black platform boots to the brand’s show.
Pinault has been wearing platform styles since the 1990s. Whether they are boots like the Casadei shoe or sandals, with her 5’2″ frame, she often uses platform shoes to make herself taller.
