From Tyla to Pamela Anderson: The Best Shoes and Shimmering Jewels at Pandora’s Talisman Collection Launch Party

Pandora kicked off New York Fashion Week with a star-studded party at Halo in lower Manhattan, celebrating the debut of its new Talisman collection. The event drew an impressive guest list, with campaign ambassadors Tyla and Pamela Anderson leading the arrivals, alongside Ciara, FKA Twigs, and Mia Moretti.

Each star showed up in chic cocktail outfits, complete with striking footwear. Naturally, their looks were elevated by pieces from the new Pandora collection, adding a touch of shine and meaning to their ensembles.

Inspired by ancient coins, the Pandora Talisman line reimagines history as modern jewelry. Each medallion bears a unique inscription that conveys different meanings, from romantic sentiments like “love conquers all” to optimistic affirmations like “towards better things.”

Let’s check out some of the standout outfits from the party.

Tyla Makes a Statement in Giuseppe Zanotti Tribal Sandals and Sleek Brown Co-Ords

Following her huge win at the 2025 MTV VMAs, where she wowed in an archival Chanel look paired with Louboutin pumps, Tyla returned to the red carpet, this time for the launch of the new Pandora collection. She was already dripping in pieces from the Pandora Talisman line at the VMAs, and it only felt fitting that she carried that same energy into the event.

Tyla’s ensemble gleamed with an array of rings, long drop earrings, a multi-layered chain belt draped over her waist, and three pendant necklaces from the collection. While these Pandora jewels were the focus of the look, the real scene-stealer was her footwear.

The Grammy winner stepped out in glistening Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, featuring brown straps in a caged silhouette, a hammered gold plate with a tribal face motif at the front, and light turquoise stones tracing the design. They struck the perfect balance of drama and an earthy feel, tying in with the gold accents of her jewelry.

Minimalist Chic: Tyla Lets Her Accessories and Zanotti Sandals Shine

Tyla paired these unique Giuseppe Zanotti sandals with a fitted brown turtleneck top, detailed with intricate black trims, and a sleek black midi skirt that hugged every inch of her slender frame. The outfit itself was understated, but that was the point; it created a clean backdrop that allowed her accessories to shine.

Her short bob, flipped neatly at the ends, added a retro polish, while her makeup was kept fresh and radiant, highlighting her natural glow.

Pamela Anderson Pairs Nomasei Mary Janes With Conservative Bevza Elegance

Pamela Anderson is no stranger to delivering elegant red-carpet moments, but I have to admit, her look for the Pandora Talisman collection launch felt a little underwhelming.

Naturally, as one of the brand’s global ambassadors, she was decked out in pieces from the collection, including layered gold medallion necklaces that added glitz and richness to her otherwise understated ensemble.

Pamela paired the accessories with sleek black Mary Jane pumps by Nomasei. She chose the $670 “Gattaca” style, one of the French shoe label’s first stiletto heel offerings, released in 2023, after years of focusing mainly on block heels.

These shoes are crafted in Tuscany from soft, patent calf leather with a goat leather lining, and feature a structured silhouette with a V-shaped vamp, a slender Mary Jane strap with a buckle, and an overlapping slingback strap. They’re set on 3.2-inch recycled resin heels, giving them a touch of modern polish.

Conservative Glamour: Pamela Anderson Balances Modest Bevza Styling With Bold Accessories

Pamela Anderson’s Bevza outfit was modest, featuring a black satin long-sleeved blouse with a cream collar that gave the look a sharp, almost uniform feel. Tucked neatly into a black knee-length skirt and cinched with a slim belt, the silhouette was conservative, bordering on corporate. To me, it leaned less towards a red-carpet party and more towards a strict principal look.

Her soft pink makeup and blonde hair tucked perfectly behind her ears with flipped ends all the more enhanced the conservative vibe of her outfit. Thankfully, her accessories rescued the look, balancing professionalism with a touch of glamour.

FKA Twigs Brings Edgy Drama in Christian Louboutin Boots and Fanci Club Gray Co-Ord

FKA Twigs never plays it safe when it comes to fashion, and her appearance at Pandora’s Talisman collection launch was no exception. She donned a monochromatic gray-and-black outfit that captured her adventurous persona while offering a touch of subtlety that I don’t typically associate with her.

Her shoe choice was instantly recognizable. She donned the same Christian Louboutin x Matières Fécales boots she wore at the VMAs. A work of art, they boasted sculptural concave heels that created a gravity-defying illusion, while the chunky pointed platforms added a futuristic drama.

These boots were bold, architectural, and unapologetically avant-garde, the kind of shoes someone like Twigs can make feel effortless. She gave them a twist, styling them with smoky blue-gray thigh-high stockings for added contrast.

Soft Palette, Bold Edge: FKA Twigs Complements Louboutin Boots With Fanci Club Co-Ord

Twigs wore a look from Fanci Club’s Spring 2026 collection. She opted for a gray corset top with a low-cut square neckline held in place by delicate spaghetti straps and a structured boning that emphasized her figure. She paired it with a matching mini skirt, which kept the look streamlined and modern, though a part of me wished she had chosen black to highlight her signature edge. Still, the softer palette offered an intriguing balance against her striking accessories.

She carried a shiny black bag and stacked silver medallion bracelets on each wrist, while multiple earrings climbed her ears, enhancing her look’s edge. Her braided hairstyle and dramatic makeup tied her look together.

Ciara Channels Power Chic in Jimmy Choo Pumps and Stella McCartney Mini Dress

Ciara showcased her love of minimalism at the Pandora event, stepping onto the red carpet in a sleek black patent Jimmy Choo “Anouk” pumps. These classic pumps epitomized timeless elegance with their razor-sharp pointed toes that elongated her legs. This high arch added sleek drama, and slim 5-inch stiletto heels that gave her a commanding, statuesque posture, instantly elevating the outfit.

They weren’t flashy, but they complemented Ciara’s sleek look. The mirrored sheen of the patent leather echoed the shine of her jewelry.

Architectural Elegance: Ciara’s Stella McCartney Mini Dress and Jimmy Choo Pumps

Ciara wore a sleek black Stella McCartney mini dress from the English fashion designer’s Fall 2025 collection. The off-the-shoulder silhouette featured an architectural, gravity-defying structure at the neckline, balanced by long sleeves that added elegance. The dress was cinched at the waist and skimmed her hips before ending just above her thighs, making it sultry and sharp at the same time.

I have to admit, though, I wasn’t completely sold on how the neckline worked with her Pandora Talisman jewelry. The sharp cut clashed with the necklace; I wished the dress had a lower neckline to better showcase her medallions. Ciara also wore several rings and bracelets to enhance the look’s elegance.

She kept things sophisticated and sexy with smoky eyes and nude lips, while her sleek raven hair was styled straight and tied into a chic ponytail, with loose face-framing strands softening the look.

Mia Moretti Surprises in Bold Christian Louboutin Yazefir Pumps and Strapless Column Dress

Mia Moretti brought one of the most surprising shoe selections to the Pandora event, and I have to say, I couldn’t take my eyes off them. She wore the Christian Louboutin “Yazefir” platform pumps from the Resort 2023 collection, easily recognizable for their detachable belted strap that wraps dramatically around the platform.

They were crafted in Italy from polished black leather and sat atop towering 5-inch block heels, giving her a statuesque presence. The silhouette seemed bold and futuristic, the kind of shoe that doesn’t just complete an outfit but transforms it.

Effortless Sophistication: Mia Moretti Lets Louboutin Heels Shine in a Sleek Column Dress

The rest of Mia’s look was kept simple, letting the shoes speak for themselves. She wore a sleek black column dress with a strapless white sweetheart neckline peeking from the top, adding just the right amount of contrast to keep the design elegant. The dress skimmed gracefully over her body, serving as the perfect canvas for her accessories to shine.

She finished her look with a Pandora Talisman necklace, which added a subtle sparkle to her neckline. What caught my attention, though, was her hair. She pulled her long tresses into a sleek, high ponytail that was tightly braided and decorated with small bauble-like embellishments, echoing the jewelry theme of the event.

For makeup, she wore a bold red smoky eyeshadow, balanced with a nude lip and a soft flush of blush, to keep the look fresh and modern.
