When you need an incredibly last-minute dress alteration, your only option? A pair of scissors. We’ve seen some epic dress reworking on the red carpet — our favorite is still the Karlie Kloss incident — but Hailey Baldwin braved the HQ camera lenses with a few loose threads this time, and we think it turned out pretty awesome.

In November 2017, Hailey arrived at the 2017 Revolve Awards after her stylist did some last-minute snipping. The model presented an award during the event.

The model picked out the LPA “626” gown from the Revolve roster. In its original design, the dress featured a slit running up to one thigh.

Hailey’s stylist, Maeve Reilly, revealed that the gown had to take a snipping at the last minute. We’re guessing the model preferred to show off her lengthy legs for the evening, which led to a quick snipping of the dress right up to where the slit ended.

The 20-year-old finished her look with a pair of Jimmy Choo “Pearl” platform sandals.

Hailey added a pop of color to her LBD with bold red lips and glittery bronzer.

The model opened up about the importance of honoring people in the beauty and fashion industry, saying it’s always nice to acknowledge the movers and shakers of the industry, both within and under the radar.

The 20-year-old revealed she has many fashion inspirations but looks up to Rihanna and Victoria Beckham the most.

Numerous celebrities share Hailey Baldwin’s affinity for Jimmy Choo’s ‘Pearl’ sandals. At the 2017 Time 100 Gala, Ashley Graham chose the ‘Pearl 120’ heels, adding sophistication to her ensemble.

Similarly, Amy Adams showcased the ‘Pearl’ platforms at the Venice Film Festival, complementing her Stella McCartney dress. Sienna Miller also dazzled in the ‘Pearl’ sandals during the European premiere of ‘Live by Night,’ highlighting their versatility and appeal.

These instances underscore the ‘Pearl’ sandals’ status as a favored choice among fashion-forward individuals.
