May 1 was a special day for laborers worldwide, and it was a special day for Salvatore Ferragamo and his footwear fans, too. The night marked the 35th anniversary of Ferragamo’s iconic shoes — the “Vara” and the “Varina.”

Of course, the designer couldn’t just throw an anniversary party in New York City and be done with it. That’s why the brand launched L’Icona that night — an online tool to customize your very own pair of “Vara” or “Varina.”

Interestingly enough, we didn’t see any of the stars in attendance sporting Ferragamo’s signature shoes. Here’s what we spotted.

Eva Longoria in Ferragamo Studded Pumps

The hot actress was a vision in head-to-toe white. More than her angelic white dress though, it was her sweet yet edgy pair of Ferragamo stud-trimmed pumps that charmed us. What do you think of her pick?

Jessica Hart in Ferragamo Thigh-High Boots

Look familiar? Let’s remind you who else wore the same style earlier this year. Who do you think wore these suede thigh-high corset-style boots better — Rita Ora or Jessica Hart?

Julie Henderson in Ferragamo “Shantelle” Lace-Up Pumps

Another familiar pair! We spotted the “Shantelle” on Hana Mae Lee at the MTV Movie Awards last month. Julie Henderson, a Sports Illustrated model, styled her Ferragamo lace-ups differently though. She went for preppy and trendy. We love the blonde beauty in her booties. What about you?

Lily Aldridge in Christian Louboutin “June” Pumps

Lily Aldridge knows all about daring moves, being a Victoria’s Secret model and all. She opted against wearing Ferragamo footwear at the event and went for classic black Louboutin pumps with vamp straps instead. Do you think she made the right move?
