Standing at 5ft 1 (154.9 cm) and wearing US shoe size 8.5, Ilana Glazer has built a signature style around a play of proportions—leaning into bold prints and sculptural heels that visually lengthen her frame without sacrificing personality.

At the November 3, 2019, premiere of Netflix’s Green Eggs and Ham at the Hollywood American Legion in Los Angeles, Glazer delivered a look that perfectly balanced bohemian ease with architectural precision—using footwear not as an afterthought, but as the defining anchor of the outfit.

For the screening, Glazer wore a Kamala paisley-print dress from the Altuzarra Fall 2019 collection.

The one-shoulder chiffon piece (originally retailing for $2,950) features a warm palette of brown, red, and mustard yellow, accented by accordion-pleated tiers.

The focal point of the ensemble was her choice of footwear: the Pierre Hardy ‘Saloni’ sandals.

These 100mm heels feature a two-toned black-and-brown calf leather construction, distinguished by scalloped cutouts along the straps and a signature cylindrical tube heel.
