Taking place at the Westwood Village Theater, the tennis legend continued her spring fashion theme of wearing elevated sandals with signature standout straps to high profile events. Earlier this month, the athlete participated in the metallic shoes trend by wearing a pair of silver metallic sandals to the WYN Beauty launch party in New York city. The shoes featured two thick straps across the toe box, a thinner strap tied across the ankles and a 3-inch block heel to complete the look.

This past October, Williams was also spotted wearing a bold pair of the Louis Vuitton“Illusion” ankle boots at Paris Fashion Week while sitting front row at the Louis Vuitton spring 2024 presentation. The boots were made with calf leather and boosted a hand-painted style to give the appearance of a white sock paired with a solid black heel.

About the shoes

For the premiere, Williams donned a pair of black heeled Bella sandals from Le Silla. Crafted with satin, the shoes featured glistening inserts in the mid-foot to provide additional comfort while walking. Three straps were present near the toe box, which in turn led to a singular strap around the ankle for security. The silhouette was rounded out by a thin heel that clocked in at 3 inches and a durable black sole for the finishing touch.
