I saw a photo of someone called Gigi Hadid wearing an amazing red gown with red shoes. They look like high-heel pumps but have lots of little straps all the way up the top of the foot. Googling "strappy heels" didn't get me anywhere closer to getting a pair of my own. Please help me.

Strap On, SoHo

Oh, where to begin? How is it possible you still don't know how to conduct an internet search? Celebrity outfits are photographed from every angle and dissected by media outlets and bloggers. Let's take this step by step, shall we? Gigi Hadid is a model, who rose to notoriety via the reality show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. We began by searching for "Gigi Hadid" with "red" and "black tie", which led us to her picture at the 2015 Met Gala. Easy. The dress was by Diane von Furstenberg. Her shoes, drum roll please, are the Viennana 100 red suede multi-strap pumps (HK$8,000) from Christian Louboutin's autumn-winter 2015 collection. The number at the end of Louboutin shoe names refers to the heel height in millimetres, by the way. You could spend well under HK$1,000 for approximations of the design by Aldo, Schutz, Nine West and others, but you will see and feel the difference. Hadid is regularly photographed in shoes by the red-sole master, but it's interesting, even funny, to note that she actually changed out of them for the after-parties that night. What did she sport instead? Adidas Superstars (HK$620 and up).
