Sabrina Carpenter Dazzles in Crystal-Coated Boots While Opening for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour
When pop songstress Sabrina Carpenter strode onstage to open for Taylor Swift’s Eras tour stop in São Paulo, Brazil, all eyes were drawn to her gleaming footwear. The “Emails I Can’t Send” singer made a dramatic entrance in a pair of sparkling black stretch boots from Australian label Naked Wolfe, captivating the audience with her crystal-encrusted style.
Carpenter’s custom Spice boots dazzled under the stage lights, the chunky 5-inch block heels and platform soles embellished lavishly with light-catching black crystals. The vegan leather uppers hugged her feet sleekly, lending a touch of edge to the glitzy shoes. Carpenter complemented the boots beautifully with a equally bedazzled two-piece ensemble, rocking a black halter crop top and miniskirt that dazzled with rows of rainbow-hued crystals.
As Carpenter delivered her opening set, the crystals caught the light with each movement, the singer gleaming like a disco ball under the spotlight. Her glittering footwear was the perfect accompaniment for her role hyping up the crowd before Swift took the stage clad in her signature sparkling guise.
Carpenter’s show-stopping boots fall in line with one of the hottest trends this season: statement heels encrusted lavishly with crystals. Labelled “crystalcore” by fashion search platform Lyst after a 93% increase in searches, the opulent aesthetic has been spotted on runways from Alexandre Birman to 16Arlington. From pumps to sandals to boots like Carpenter’s, crystal-coated statement shoes are having a major moment right now.
The bedazzled Spice boots align seamlessly with Carpenter’s glamorous on-stage persona. No stranger to making a scene-stealing entrance, the singer has rocked designs from Saint Laurent, Tom Ford, and other luxury labels on red carpets and at events like the Met Gala. Now, with an opening slot on Swift’s global tour, Carpenter is poised to dazzle stadiums filled with pop fans on multiple continents this coming year.
The São Paulo show comes on the heels of a busy fall for Carpenter, which saw the release of new music and her first-ever perfume. In November, she dropped a holiday EP titled Fruitcake, featuring cheeky Christmas tunes like “Winter Wonderland” with a Gen Z twist. Last September also saw her launch Caramel Dream, a sweet gourmand fragrance with notes of vanilla, almond, and chocolate.
As Carpenter takes her bedazzled boots and sugary scents around the world while opening Swift’s tour, she’ll undoubtedly continue to capture attention with her dazzling style and captivating stage presence. Wherever the songstress travels next, a shining display of crystals is sure to follow.
