In February 2016, Camilla Belle attended the Unite4:Humanity event at the Montage Beverly Hills wearing a look that balanced gothic textures with bright, floral accents.

Her choice, a sheer lace dress from Monique Lhuillier’s Fall 2016 collection, featured a modest silhouette that contrasted with bold yellow petal embroidery.

While the dress featured an ankle-length scalloped hem and long sleeves, the real interest lay in how the heavy lace paired with her choice of footwear.

Camilla grounded the romantic softness of her lace gown with the architectural edge of Christian Louboutin’s “Decoupadiva” sandals—a standout silhouette from the brand’s Fall/Winter 2015 collection.
Crafted in glossy black patent leather, the design is defined by its intricate laser-cut “découpé” detailing, forming a delicate floral-and-geometric pattern that climbs the foot like a second skin. The open-toe silhouette features slim crisscross straps across the vamp, balanced by a structured heel counter with a discreet back zip for a clean, sculpted finish.

Set on a slender 120mm (4.7-inch) stiletto—with a subtly flared, architectural curve near the top—the sandals elongate the leg while adding a sharp, modern contrast to the softness of lace.
The effect is classic Louboutin: feminine, precise, and instantly recognizable, finished with the house’s signature red lacquered sole.

Originally retailing for around $1,195, the Decoupadiva has since become a sought-after archival style, with variations in suede, patent leather, and neutral or bold colorways continuing to circulate on the resale market.
A few months earlier, Alessandra Ambrosio wore a white-hot playsuit and matching Decoupadiva sandals while hosting the VO|CO Summer Closing Pool Party at the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles.
The Brazilian model also wore the same heels with a coordinated cotton macramé set by Philosophy Di Lorenzo Serafini.
