At a screening of Deliver Us from Evil at New York City’s SVA Theatre in June 2014, Olivia Munn stepped out in a softly draped Vionnet dress paired with metallic gold Casadei Blade pumps, while then-boyfriend Aaron Rodgers kept things classic in a tailored navy suit.
The appearance captured the polished, understated style the couple became known for during their relationship from 2014 to 2017.
Standing 5 feet 4 inches (162.6 cm), Munn created even more height with Casadei’s signature blade heels beside Rodgers, who stands 6 feet 1½ inches (186.7 cm).
More than a celebrity-couple moment, the event also reflected the staying power of Casadei’s Blade silhouette, a sharply sculpted heel that remained a red-carpet favorite throughout the 2010s.

Despite attending the same event, Aaron Rodgers did not join Olivia Munn on the red carpet. Munn later explained to E! News that the carpet was work and that Rodgers, as a football player, did not feel comfortable walking with her in that context.
“The afterparty we’ll hang out and stuff, but the red carpet, it’s work,” she said with a laugh. Munn also noted that while some people choose to walk the carpet together, she considers it part of her job and prefers to handle it alone.
Over the course of their relationship, Munn frequently leaned into sleek, leg-lengthening shoe silhouettes at public appearances, from metallic sandals to sharply pointed pumps. That included a casual off-duty look in strappy heels while visiting Rodgers on set during one of his Adidas shoots.
Their coordinated appearance at the 2016 Academy Awards further cemented Munn’s preference for clean-lined eveningwear paired with sharp metallic heels and statement jewelry.

Olivia Munn’s choice of Casadei’s ‘Blade’ pumps at the Deliver Us from Evil screening reflects a trend among celebrities favoring this distinctive design. Jennifer Lopez, for instance, paired the ‘Blade’ pumps with a cream leather ensemble at the CTIA 2013 news conference, highlighting the heels’ versatility and appeal.
Zendaya also opted for the ‘Blade’ pumps at the ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ premiere in June 2017, demonstrating their adaptability across various styles. These instances underscore the ‘Blade’ pumps’ status as a favored choice among fashion-forward individuals.
