When Blake Lively arrived at Zero Bond in New York City for Gigi Hadid’s 27th birthday celebration in April 2022, her outfit sparked immediate conversation among footwear enthusiasts.
While Lively is known for her self-styled approach to fashion, this specific look served as a case study in high-contrast color blocking and daring accessory choices.

The most discussed element of the ensemble was her choice of footwear. She paired the fuchsia dress with red Christian Louboutin Bois Dore pumps.
These aren’t your standard heels; they feature a sculptural gold heel that adds a metallic contrast to the red suede. To finish the look, she carried a matching red Reissue clutch from Chanel.
While the vibrant shade of the dress complemented her skin tone, the combination of red, fuchsia, and gold created a busy visual profile.
In fashion circles, the consensus was divided: some appreciated the bold color-clashing, while others felt a classic nude or gold Louboutin would have allowed the dress to remain the focal point.

The dangling earrings further added to the eclectic nature of the look, though they arguably competed with the clean lines of the Chanel clutch.
Regardless of the critique, the outfit remains a memorable example of Lively’s willingness to experiment with color outside of traditional styling rules.
