While everyone else at the ‘X/Y’ Tribeca premiere was in suits and cocktail dresses, Dree Hemingway wore what only a model can get away with: undone hair, a college basketball t-shirt, and a mumsy zebra-print maxi skirt with a high waist and large buttons down the back.

However, we don’t think even she, or anyone else for that matter, can defy gravity. But that’s exactly what Dree is doing in ring-heel sandals that look like they could buckle at any moment!

How did she do it? Dree’s face tells us that it’s a secret she’ll never tell.

A closer look at the sandals shows that the green rings do look like they’re firmly in place. So, even if the entire middle section of the heels is completely missing, maybe they are sturdy enough to walk in.
