At the 2016 Serpentine Gallery Summer Party in London, Jackie St Clair leaned fully into a feathered aesthetic that blurred the lines between her wardrobe and the garden setting.

While the former model is often noted for her long-standing friendship with Simon Cowell, her appearance at the Kensington Gardens event featured a bold, bird-of-paradise-inspired look that marked a significant moment in the history of luxury footwear.
St Clair’s choice of attire—an asymmetrical feather-print dress paired with a matching headband—served as a canvas for the standout piece of her ensemble: a pair of limited-edition sandals from the highly sought-after Salvatore Ferragamo x Edgardo Osorio collection.

Jackie showed off her feet in Salvatore Ferragamo x Edgardo Osorio “Dream” sandals. These lace-up suede sandals are adorned with colorful feathers on both ankles.
While we love the shoes on their own, styling them with the feather-print dress was a little overkill.
