Brooks Nader elevated a minimalist black dress with a pair of strappy metallic sandals by Aquazzura for a Los Angeles outing on Thursday.

Glamorizing her look with a few gold accents, including her shoes, the Sports Illustrated model opted for a pair of Aquazzura Purist sandals in a light gold hue. The style featured slender, curved straps that mirrored each other in front; the set also included a thin ankle strap. The silhouette featured a rounded toe in front and a stiletto heel in back, offering Nader a significant boost in height.

The shoes served as a bright contrast to Nader’s black dress, a full-length garment featuring a spaghetti halter strap and a plunging V-neck. As for jewelry, she accented her ensemble with chunky gold earrings, thick gold bangles and a variety of rings in various sizes. She also accessorized with a white purse and added a strong pop of color to her look with a bold red manicure and pedicure. Her blond hair was worn out on this occasion.

Nader has been spotted wearing Aquazzura shoes at notable events before, including the star-studded premiere of the American action spy film “Mission: Impossible — The Final” in June 2024, where she joined a crowd of celebrities and fashion personalities.

Aquazzura shoes have become a staple on the red carpet and in celebrity wardrobes, embraced by stars for their bold, feminine designs and Italian craftsmanship. At the 2025 Met Gala, Simone Biles made a dramatic entrance in the brand’s Yes Darling Platform Sandals in blue, while Jennifer Lawrence and Simone Ashley both sported Aquazzura heels at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, pairing them with high-fashion ensembles. The brand’s popularity is further amplified by its prominent presence on HBO Max’s “And Just Like That…,” where Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis have all been seen wearing various Aquazzura styles.

Nader has also recently shown off her fashion sense at the 2025 Daily Front Row Fashion Los Angeles Awards and Hulu’s Get Real House event in April. She is set to appear in the forthcoming Hulu reality show “Love Thy Nader” alongside her sisters Grace Ann, Mary Holland and Sarah Jane Nader.

Both strappy sandals are proving to be quite popular in the world of celebrity style right now. From Ciara wearing rhinestone-embellished Saint Laurent sandals (the brand’s Liza style) at the BET Awards to “Call Her Daddy” host Alexandra Cooper wearing shiny Jimmy Choo sandals (the brand’s Minny style) to the premiere of “Call Her Alex” at Tribeca to Dakota Johnson wearing black strappy heels at the Cannes Film Festival “Splitsville” photocall, the footwear style showcasing some variation of thin straps is proving its versatility lately.
