Margaret Qualley's Barefoot Shoes on Red Carpet Have Fans Putting Their Foot Down
The actress became the first major celebrity to wear Chanel’s viral barefoot sandals on the red carpet, drawing strong reactions online.
- On Thursday, August 20, 2026, actor Margaret Qualley attended the London world premiere of 'The Dog Stars' at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square alongside co-stars Jacob Elordi and Josh Brolin and director Ridley Scott.
- Qualley garnered attention for wearing Chanel's 'barefoot cap heel' sandals, designed by creative director Matthieu Blazy, which debuted during Chanel's Cruise 2027 collection runway show in Biarritz, France, four months ago.
- The soleless sandals feature a heel cap with ankle straps, leaving toes and soles exposed; Qualley paired the experimental design with a fringed, V-neck black dress, both from Chanel.
- Fashion audiences remained divided over the unconventional footwear's practicality, though trend analyst Mandy Lee urged followers to 'hop on the freaky shoe grind before you get left behind.'
