Vogue World 2023: The Best Celebrity Shoes and Couture Looks From the Red Carpet

In September 2023, the Vogue World 2023 event kicked off London Fashion Week and took over Theatre Royal Drury Lane for a massive celebration of fashion and British theater.

With a guest list that boasted stars from the worlds of film, music, theater, and fashion, the red carpet served as a feast for the senses.

Guests were treated to performances from the most prominent names in the entertainment industry and a live runway show with models showcasing the highlights from the Fall/Winter 2023 collections.

Proceeds from the event will go to various London-based performing arts organizations such as the Royal Ballet, the National Theatre, Southbank Sinfonia, Rambert, and the Royal Opera House.

The event showcased plenty of unforgettable looks, from intricate embellishments to timeless styles—and a fair share of bold, skin-baring outfits. Here’s a roundup of 8 standout looks from Vogue World 2023:
