If there’s one thing Olivia Munn has learned in show business, it’s this: find a good stylist and don’t let go. Even though Olivia has been laying low lately, she’s still making sure that her red carpet style remains top-notch, and the fashion writers were definitely paying attention to her most recent appearance.
After countless gorgeous gowns on the carpet, Olivia went with something more avant-garde when she arrived at the 2017 MTV VMAs in California.

Olivia Munn turns heads in a fully embellished Nicolas Jebran mini dress paired with metallic Jimmy Choo “Minny” sandals
The actress took on a red carpet challenge from her longtime stylist Jessica Paster.
Jessica challenged Olivia to take the meaning of couture to new heights by wearing a fully embellished Nicolas Jebran dress. While the dress wasn’t the typical ball gown we associate with the word “couture,” it was unique. The barely-there front was covered with cheeky embroidered and beaded art, and it was definitely a conversation starter.

Olivia polished her look with Sarah Weinstock rings, Dana Rebecca Designs earrings, Effy jewelry, and a pair of “Minny” sandals from Jimmy Choo in metallic leather.

About the Jimmy Choo “Minny” Sandal: The “Minny” is a barely-there sandal with a two-strap silhouette, featuring thin straps across the toes and a buckle-fastening ankle strap. Its sleek, understated design emphasizes simplicity and sophistication, often described as a “whisper of a shoe” rather than a bold statement piece.

The actress took to the stage at the 2017 MTV VMAs to present Taylor Swift and Zayn Malik with the “Best Collaboration” award for their hit song I Don’t Want to Live Forever.
At the time, Olivia also promoted The Lego Ninjago Movie, where she voiced the character Koko alongside an ensemble cast that included Jackie Chan, Dave Franco, and Justin Theroux. The animated film was released in September 2017 and received generally positive audience reviews for its humor and family-friendly action.
