Olivia Munn Boosts Her Height With High Heels: Exploring Her 5’4″ Frame and Shoe Choices

Standing 5 feet 4 inches (162.6 cm) tall, Olivia Munn has developed a consistent approach to footwear that balances her petite, athletic frame.

While her shoe size (US 7.5) is fairly standard, her choice of silhouettes often reflects her height. By favoring heels that elongate the leg line, she navigates the “red carpet” look with a practical understanding of proportion.

How Olivia Munn Uses Heels to Balance Proportion and Personal Style

“I’m barely 5-foot-4, I’m a curvier girl, I’m not stick thin,” Munn told ABC News regarding her stature. Her perspective on dressing for a shorter frame is rooted in self-awareness rather than in strictly following trends.

“So things don’t always work out. I can’t rock a lot of high-waisted jeans, and I don’t just look super casual,” she noted. “I’m not the girl who’s walking around in flats all the time… I wear heels because I’m barely 5′ 4″, I have to be comfortable with it.”

To enhance her stature, Munn frequently gravitates toward brands known for architectural height and pitch, such as Jimmy Choo, Chloe Gosselin, Maison Ernest Paris, Sophia Webster, Christian Louboutin, and L.K. Bennett.

Of all the beautiful women at the event, Olivia Munn stood out, and not just due to her incredible legs. The American actress, comedian, model, television personality, and author was Miss December of the 2013 Vanity Fair Vanities Calendar. She was also one of the hosts (along with Vanity Fair’s West Coast editor, Krista Smith) at the annual celebration.

The New Girl actress turned heads in her sexy Bird by Juicy Couture Gale cocktail dress. It’s a navy blue halter dress with an open back, a contrast white satin lapel, and pleating at the skirt.

Olivia’s sleek, polished look was sharpened with bold beauty choices—a rich red lip, slicked-back hair, and inky black nail polish that added a subtle edge to her refined ensemble.

On her feet, she wore Jean-Michel Cazabat’s “Ophelia” open-toe pumps, crafted in black suede with peep toes and slender silver pin heels measuring approximately four inches. A contrasting textured panel at the toe—likely python or a faux exotic alternative—adds a tactile, statement finish.

Olivia Munn’s approach to footwear highlights a broader styling truth: at around 5’4″, the right pair of heels can completely transform proportion, posture, and presence.
