Costume designer Catherine Marie Thomas carefully curated Sandra Bullock’s wardrobe in The Proposal to reflect her character, Margaret Tate’s transformation from a rigid, high-powered New York book editor to someone who embraces love and vulnerability.
In addition to wearing Christian Louboutin heels in the movie, she has frequently boosted her height in heels from the French shoe designer on the red carpet.
