Teyana Taylor’s Louboutin Booties Bring Balletcore to the Red Carpet

Leave it to Teyana Taylor to make a statement with her shoes. The Oscar nominee arrived at the 2026 Billboard Women in Music Awards at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on Wednesday wearing a pair of Christian Louboutin‘s most talked about new shoe styles.

While the singer wasn’t able to do interviews ahead of the event, she became a red carpet darling by giving a hug to every reporter and journalist on the press line. Taylor pranced down the carpet going from outlet to outlet greeting each person, wearing a pair of the Louboutin Pavlova Booty in a feminine blush color.

The “One Battle After Another” star stood tall on the shoe’s 100mm-high stiletto heels. The low boots are made from a lustrous crepe satin that is slightly stretchy, according to the brand. The booties follow a similar design as the popular Cassia Lace Up pumps, which are inspired by ballet slippers.

The Pavlova Booty features unique lines with a corset-style side boning to sculpt the leg for a bold and defined silhouette. The boot is designed with laces running up the front of the shaft, which ends around the top of the calf. They are completed with an inner concealed zip, making them easy to slide on and off.

The boots feature a sculpted high heel and the signature Louboutin red sole. The shoes also feature a squared toe, which are traditionally found on ballerina pointe shoes. The dancer shoes have a square-toe box to provide a stable, flat surface for dancers to balance their entire body weight on their toes.

The design also preventing toe injuries while dancing on pointe. The structure is traditionally made of hardened layers of fabric and glue. The Pavlova Booty is also available in black satin and they retail for $1,995. Taylor, who has been spotted on various red carpets as of late, donned an Ashi Studio Couture spring 2026 gown with the boots.

The dress featured a strapless, corset-like bodice, designed with an exaggerated cinched waist and protruding hips. The skirt of the gown was made from formfitting white tulle that flared slightly at the bottom into a tattered, feather-like detail on the train of the dress.

The 2026 Billboard Women in Music Awards ceremony celebrates the most influential women in music. The annual event honors women’s contributions to the music industry, and this year was hosted by Keke Palmer, honoring the industry’s biggest names including Tyla, Coco Jones, Kehlani, Kali Uchis and more.
