Days after taking over the Grammys red carpet in a sultry cutout gown (thanks vintage Versace), Olivia Rodrigo has swung her style pendulum to the opposite side of the sartorial spectrum—think less bombshell and more balletcore.
The “Making the Bed” singer recently shared photos on Instagram of a brand-new look where she spiced up the balletcore trend. Forget classic ballet flats, Rodrigo added some unexpected edge to the classic French footwear by slipping into a pair of Christian Louboutin’s Cassia Lace-Up pumps. Featuring a satin square toe adorned with a tiny bow, the shoes also showcased skinny stiletto heels and lace-up ribbons.
Rodrigo paired the unique ballet heels with a frilly white dress, custom-made by Alessandra Rich. The micro dress also included a bow at the center of the neckline, as well as lace trim, puffed sleeves, and a tiered ruffle hemline. Rodrigo finished off the look with some diamond-encrusted silver earrings and chunky ring from Eera.

This past weekend, Rodrigo was among the several A-listers who attended the 67th annual Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles. Rodrigo, who appeared onstage to introduce Chappell Roan’s performance, was nominated herself in the category of Best Song Written for Visual Media for “Can’t Catch Me Now,” a track that appeared in Hunger Games prequel movie The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
“When they asked me if I was interested in writing for this, I was like, ‘Oh, of course! I’m such a fan of everything Hunger Games,” Rodrigo said of the song, which she cowrote with producer Daniel Nigro, in a 2023 interview with Variety. “One of the last scenes was very inspiring to me. I don’t know how to describe it without giving too much away! It’s an overhead shot of a bunch of birds in the trees, and something very important just happened. That was playing in a loop in my head over and over, and I was like, ‘I want to write a song that captures what that feeling is.’ That was the goal.”
