Every year, the Costume Institute Gala at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art becomes a highly anticipated star-studded event as fashion lovers everywhere itch to see what their favorite celebrities will don in honor of the gala’s theme.
This year’s theme celebrated China, going along with the museum’s new exhibition titled “China: Through the Looking Glass,” and supermodel Karolina Kurkova nailed the theme thanks to a pair of custom-made Giuseppe Zanotti sandals.

The shoe designer is a good friend of Karolina’s and reportedly prepared six shoe options for her big night. We’re glad she decided to show offf her pretty feet in red satin “Venere” sandals, which feature a gold lacquered detail forming decadent ankle wraps.

What do you think of Karolina’s Met Gala look? If you love it, a black suede version of her custom-made sandals is available for purchase at Nordstrom and Saks.
This pair, which Taylor Swift wore to the Brit Awards, doesn’t have the ankle wraps but is just as hot.
