With the number of showstopping dresses (and headpieces, jewels, and even wings) that came down the red carpet at this year's Met Gala, it's easy to forget to look down at the shoes that the star attendees chose to complement their gowns. Although many of the shoes weren't even visible under the long gowns, of the ones that were, we quickly spotted a trend that was embraced by everyone from Kim Kardashian West to Sienna Miller: strappy gold stilettos.
Perhaps because of their versatility and perhaps because many of the stars wore metallic dresses in keeping with the Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination theme, metallic gold heels were hands down the most popular shoe trend on the red carpet. With summer on the horizon, this is a trend you're going to want to invest in.
