Emma Chamberlain may stand at just 5ft 4 (162.6 cm), but the influencer-turned-fashion insider knows exactly how to make an impact on the red carpet.
The Chamberlain Coffee founder has also been stepping into the acting world, joining a stylish ensemble cast in Forbidden Fruits—a project that recently put her alongside fashion-forward co-stars like Lili Reinhart, Lola Tung, Victoria Pedretti, and Alexandra Shipp, whose press-tour outfits showcased some of 2026’s standout shoe trends.

The Louis Vuitton ambassador often leans on sleek silhouettes and sky-high heels to elongate her frame, proving that smart styling can transform proportions.
With a US shoe size 6, Chamberlain frequently opts for sharply pointed pumps and delicate strappy sandals that complement her petite stature while keeping the focus on modern, minimalist footwear.

Internet superstar Emma Chamberlain pulled double duty for the 2022 Met Gala, returning as Vogue’s high-energy correspondent while simultaneously serving one of the night’s most talked-about looks.
The Secret to Emma’s Statuesque Met Gala Glow-Up
To master the ‘Gilded Glamour’ dress code, the petite icon leaned into the power of a custom Louis Vuitton two-piece, designed by Nicolas Ghesquière.
While the floor-sweeping column skirt and dramatic ruffles stole the spotlight, the real magic happened under the hem. To keep her petite frame from getting swallowed by the heavy train, Chamberlain anchored the look with custom white Louis Vuitton platform heels.
These weren’t just a height boost; they were a structural necessity, ensuring the crisp white fabric draped flawlessly without a single bunch.

Chamberlain took her outfit to the next level by adding a tiara and a show-stopping choker necklace on loan from Cartier.
The influencer is also an ambassador for the legendary jewelry house, so it’s no surprise they lent her jewels for the event.
The diamond choker belonged to Maharaja Sir Bhupinder Singh of Patiala, who commissioned Cartier to create the heirloom piece, with the De Beers diamond as its centerpiece.

It was the world’s seventh-largest diamond, weighing 234.65 carats, the largest cushion-cut yellow diamond, and the 2nd largest yellow-faceted diamond in the world.
Created in 1928, the Patiala Necklace features five rows of platinum chains encrusted with 2,930 diamonds, including seven large diamonds weighing 18 to 73 carats and several Burmese rubies.
Maharaja Sir Bhupinder Singh rarely wore the choker itself, but his son Yadavindra Singh of Patiala was often pictured wearing the entire set in the ‘30s and ‘40s.
While Emma’s 2022 appearance brought the heirloom back into the Western spotlight, the necklace remains a point of intense cultural debate.
In late 2025, Cartier faced renewed backlash for “colonial curation” after reportedly denying a request from Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh to wear the piece during his historic 2026 world tour—a move critics sharply contrasted with the brand’s willingness to lend the Sikh crown jewel to Western influencers.

The YouTuber was one of several celebrities to show their midriff on the red carpet and followed Anna Wintour’s lead of wearing a tiara for the event.

Hairstylist Laura Polko created Emma’s ice queen look as a nod to the night’s theme, The Gilded Age.
She told E! News, “We wanted to keep her look true to herself, and the combination of the tiara with her icy blonde short bob really spoke to a modern take on the theme.”
To keep the tiara in place, Polko created two rows of baby cornrows and secured the tiara with a clear Scunci elastic. She then sewed it into place with a thread and needle.

The Chamberlain Coffee founder told Live from E! that it took her 7 hours to complete her platinum-blonde bob transformation.
“I was in the salon yesterday for 7 hours, and it was very worth it.” Emma added she loves “being blonde. I thought it would really complement this look.”
After learning that Emma was going icy blonde, makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan decided to add color to her eyes and face.

Kelsey used CeraVe hydrating toner, lightweight moisturizer, and de-puffing eye cream to prep Emma’s face before applying BareMinerals BarePro Performance Wear Liquid Foundation in Sandstone.
She also applied BareMinerals Endless Glow Highlighter in Free and Gen Nude Blonzer, a bronzer-blush combination that can be used on the cheeks and eyelids.
The American internet personality completed her beauty look with a burnished eyeshadow palette and matching lip color.
