Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr. at “Iron Man” Rome photocall


Gwyneth Paltrow has been wearing super impractical shoes lately, to the point where she’s had to be helped to walk to her car, and I think it’s kind of awesome. I’m a flats girl myself, I have size 10 feet (1/2 size bigger than Angelina, but a full size smaller than Paris) and don’t find many heels comfortable. I have a few pairs for nice nights out, but I don’t usually wear them during the day and could never go out in heels all the time like Posh.

Still, you can kind of appreciate how Paltrow is enjoying wearing ridiculous shoes. It’s her new thing and she gets a kick out it, if you’ll forgive the pun. A woman who used to bug the crap out of me is sort of growing on me as she goes out in shoes that look torturous and a little bit ugly. Now that she’s finally cut her long boring hair she’s breaking out of her old mold. Her skirts aren’t too short anymore, and her shoes are completely impractical. I like it.

Thanks to PRPhotos for these pictures from yesterday. Also shown are her costars Robert Downey, and Terrence Howard, and director Jon Favreau, who gained back some of the weight he lost.

Iron Man
is out in the US on May 2, and comes out in the rest of the world a couple of days earlier. Here’s the trailer:

Update: The Daily Mail has compiled all the photos of her recent footwear, and she’s really pushing the envelope.

  1. Gwyneth looks lovely, Robert looks good, but Terrance looks like he’d rather be anywhere else and Jon looks beyond uncomfortable. It looks like he’s afraid some button, zipper or seam could give way at any moment.

    The shoes are super hot. I’m just working my way back up to kitten heels after breaking a bone on top of my foot, so they also look way uncomfortable. Hot, yet uttterly impractical.

  2. Love the shoes, hate the dress, really unflattering. Robert D could be wearing a sack and he’d still be 100% fine.

  7. I can’t wait for this movie. RDJr makes me think dreadfully naughty thoughts. He’s dreamy.

    As for Gwynnie’s shoes, I love the dangerously high heel she’s working, and much prefer these to those dreadful stiletto booties (that seem to be all the rage)she wore to a few other openings. Gah. They’re like hybrids of orthopedic and fetish shoes, and they make everyone’s ankles look dense. Even Gwynnie, who appears to have had her legs designed by Michealangelo.

  11. Those beauties (the shoes, obviously) are by Giuseppe Zanotti, another god of the high heel. They are still quite affordable for such quality shoes (700-800euros if my memory still works fine)…
    I thought I’d mention it as several comments stated their interest in these.
