At the Met Gala red carpet, 23 stars proved their dedication to fashion by wearing stylish pairs that made as much a statement as the rest of their ensembles.

From pumps in unexpected colors, to chunky hoof-like boots, the Met Gala had it all! Scroll through to see the best shoes on the red carpet this year.
