Metallic Magnificence: Noelia Voigt Stuns in Gilded Glamour
The fashion force was firmly with Noelia Voigt as she commanded the red carpet at the “People: Celebrating 50 Years” exhibition opening in New York City on May 9th. The former Miss USA made a radiant arrival, clad in shimmering metallics that turned heads and lit up the night.
Voigt, who recently resigned from her Miss USA duties, selected a pair of scene-stealing metallic gold platform sandals for her walk down the ruby-hued runway. The open-toe stunners featured a chunky square heel reaching approximately 4 inches in towering height, while a 2-inch platform added an empowering boost. Thick cross straps adorned the foot, joined by a slender ankle strap that perfectly framed her toned legs.
The pièce de résistance, however, was undoubtedly Voigt’s showstopping dress. An off-the-shoulder confection of gathered fabric and artful draping, it hugged her curves in all the right places before cascading into a softly ruffled skirt. The metallic sheen of the fabric played with the light, casting an ethereal glow wherever Voigt went.
Her accessories were just as judiciously chosen, from the sparkling silver clutch that caught the flashes of photographer’s bulbs to the statement earrings that danced with every turn of her head. Voigt’s chocolate tresses were styled with tousled waves by none other than hair extraordinaire Zullay Sevilla, while stylist Lisa Cameron masterminded the full look with her signature flair for glamour.
On the heels of her resignation, this appearance marked Voigt’s first major red carpet moment since that highly publicized decision. The Utah native has been open about the mental health struggles that prompted her to step away from the Miss USA role, revealing she had been diagnosed with anxiety and prescribed medication.
Yet, on this evening, any whispers of such turmoil were banished as Voigt reveled in the spotlight’s warm embrace. Her poise, her confidence, her radiant beauty – all seemed to reaffirm why she so captivated audiences during her pageant reign. This was Noelia Voigt rediscovering her voice, her power, herself.
As she posed with a beaming smile, eyes sparkling like the sequins that adorned her look, one got the distinct sense that this mother of reinvention was just getting started. The metallic trend may be having its moment, but true to her fashion roots, Voigt has made it clear she’s forever.
