Rosamund Pike’s BAFTA Shoe Double-Take: Dior Platforms and Malone Souliers Corset Pumps

At the 77th British Academy Film Awards at London’s Royal Festival Hall on February 18, 2024, Rosamund Pike wore two contrasting red-carpet looks built around soft pleating, sheer fabrics, and statement shoes.

Nominated for her supporting role as Lady Elspeth Catton in Saltburn, Pike arrived at the BAFTAs in a pale blue Dior Couture gown paired with towering satin platform sandals from Dior’s Winter 2023 collection.

The night before, at the BAFTA Nominees’ Party at the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, she shifted into a sheer embroidered Erdem dress styled with black Malone Souliers corset-inspired pumps, giving the otherwise feminine look a sharper finish.

Rosamund Pike’s pale blue Dior Couture gown combined soft pleating with structured corsetry, creating a look that felt polished without appearing overly formal.

Made from finely pleated plissé fabric, the gown featured a crossover bodice, a softly draped silhouette, and a flowing ankle-length skirt that moved easily as she walked the red carpet.

The dress’s sensuous flare was enhanced by the sheer nude corset peeking out from behind the plunging V-neck.

The pale blue dress was finished with a pleated A-line skirt that fell just above the ankles, leaving her platform sandals visible beneath the hem.

Stylist Leith Clark, who works with Daisy Ridley, Lily Rabe, Keira Knightley, and Jenna Coleman, curated Pike’s stunning princess-esque look.

Standing 5ft 8 inches (172.7 cm), Rosamund Pike paired the flowing gown with Dior’s “Muse Dior” platform sandals from the brand’s Winter 2023 collection, adding noticeable height while keeping the look cohesive in tone and texture.

Crafted in Italy from satin, the sandals featured crossed front straps, a thick ankle strap with a metallic CD buckle, chunky 2-inch platforms, and approximately 5-inch block heels.

While the pale blue gown drew most of the attention on the red carpet, Pike’s choice of footwear helped ground the look. The chunky satin platforms added height and structure beneath the soft pleated fabric, continuing the return of platform evening shoes on major awards-season carpets.

Davide Barbieri creatively fashioned Rosamund’s hair into a neat bow bun with a braided accent at the back.

Meanwhile, makeup artist Amanda Grossman kept Rosamund Pike’s beauty look soft and polished with Charlotte Tilbury products, pairing fluttery mascara and a natural rosy flush with softly defined lips outlined in Lip Cheat “90’s Pink” liner and finished with the Hollywood Beauty Icon Matte Revolution lipstick in the warm pink shade “Pizzazz.”

Rosamund Pike and other nominees, including Da’Vine Joy Randolph and Margot Robbie, attended the BAFTA Nominees’ Party at the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, the evening before the 2024 BAFTA ceremony.

Pink Erdem Romance: Sheer Florals and Malone Souliers Corset Pumps at the BAFTA Nominees’ Party

For the BAFTA Nominees’ Party, Pike changed into a sheer pastel pink Erdem dress embroidered with floral detailing and styled with darker accessories that shifted the mood away from traditional red-carpet softness.

Cut from semi-sheer fabric, the dress revealed a glimpse of Rosamund Pike’s nude bralette and high-waisted underwear beneath the floral embroidery.

The delicate dress featured all-over floral embroidery, voluminous short puff sleeves, and a flowy midi-length skirt with a ruffled peplum that enhanced the ensemble’s feminine elements. This sheer A-line creation retailed for $2,495 at Bergdorf Goodman.

Erdem After-Dark Styling: Leather Opera Gloves, De Beers Diamonds, and Berry-Toned Glam

Her stylist, Leith Clark, gave the vintage, feminine style a modern edge by incorporating black components into the outfit.

She cinched her waist with a wide, black Erdem Spring 2024 belt, styled with long, black leather opera gloves, and completed her ensemble with black Malone Souliers heels.

The “Alessandra” satin pumps feature intricate lacing and metal eyelets inspired by the traditional corsetry of the Victorian era. They also feature buckled slingback straps, pointed toes, and about 3.3-inch heels, and were available for $845 at Farfetch.

Hairstylist Davide Barbieri coiffed Rosamund’s hair into a stylish bun, allowing her to showcase her De Beers Phenomena Frost earrings.

With a whopping price tag of $104,000, these diamond drop earrings featured hand-aligned diamonds set in an 18k white gold pave-and-prong setting, echoing the symmetry and solidity of ice formations. These shapes, culminating in pear-shaped diamonds, resemble water droplets emerging from the winter’s frost.

Rosamund Pike’s glam was finished with heavy mascara, berry lipstick, and rosy blush created by Amanda Grossman.
