We usually depend on Bella Hadid or Kendall Jenner to bring the provocative-to-bordering-trashy looks to events.
At the 2019 MTV VMAs last night, however, it was Hailee Steinfeld who went unexpectedly risqué.

The 23-year-old actress bared her butt in an Aadnevik Spring 2019 sheer red dress.
She also flashed her nude underwear and her pelvic bones through the dress’s double side splits every time she sat down.

Pelvic dresses have been done ad infinitum at this point, but something about Hailee’s pelvic-bone-flashing and butt-baring don’t sit right with us.
Maybe it’s because the dress still looks like lingerie and needs a bit more styling? Plus the blood-red lips and the blood-red coffin nails take this look way over-the-top.

At least all that flesh-flashing allowed us to get good views of the Gianvito Rossi ruffle-trim red-satin sandals on Hailee’s feet.

Hailee’s Gianvito Rossi ‘Belvedere’ sandals feature a ruffle trim fanning out from the back.
If there’s one thing Hailee got right, it’s wearing a dress that lets these fabulous heels to be seen and stand out.

These sandals feature a plissé tulle panel that fans out above the cuff strap – an element that encapsulates the label’s experimental silhouettes.
They’re crafted in Italy from lustrous satin with a crystal-embellished buckle and rest on a pencil-sharp stiletto heel.
