Gracing the same Carmen Steffens event as Nikki Reed, Maria Menounos also helped the Brazilian label celebrate the opening of their U.S. Flagship Store in Hollywood in August 2012.
We will never forget how much fun Jessie Graff had in her Carmen Steffens sandals on the red carpet of the 68th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.
Maria Menounos styled her hair in soft, voluminous waves and opted for a fresh makeup look featuring rosy cheeks, glossy pink lips, and defined lashes
Maria Menounos Showcases Kymerah’s Breezy ‘Medina’ Dress in Classic Black
At 5 feet 7 inches (170.2 cm), the television host elegantly showcased the Kymerah ‘Medina’ dress—a breezy, on-trend piece that’s been a spring/summer favorite.
While the golden yellow version radiates warmth, the black Kymerah ‘Medina’ dress draws attention to its sleek silhouette, delicate fabric drape, and that striking T-neck detail, which stands out even more against the darker hue
The American celebrity of Greek descent elevated the breezy Kymerah ‘Medina’ dress in classic black, giving it a dressier edge for the occasion.
Cinched at the waist with a skinny belt to highlight her figure, she carried a chic black-and-gold Carmen Steffens ‘Julie’ clutch and stepped out in strappy gold sandals — a perfect fit for her US shoe size 10.
While the photos didn’t give us the best view of her heels, Maria is known to favor standout labels like Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, and Brian Atwood, so it’s no surprise her footwear game was on point.

While the golden yellow version of the Kymerah ‘Medina’ dress is undeniably stunning, Maria Menounos proves the black iteration is just as captivating — with the high T-neck detail feeling even more striking and dramatic.

Kymerah was a women’s contemporary ready-to-wear fashion brand launched in Autumn/Winter 2011, based in New York City. The brand focused on style, luxury, and simplicity, emphasizing innovative techniques, custom in-house prints, and combining delicate fabrics with leather detailing.
Founded by Alana Fechner, who served as the Creative Director, Kymerah gained attention for its sophisticated designs and quickly attracted a celebrity following—including Taylor Swift, Eva Longoria, and Kourtney Kardashian—before becoming inactive around 2014.
