Abby Quinn’s pink lace Jimmy Choo pumps balance her black tulle gown

A dramatic black tulle gown can easily wear the actress, not the other way around. Abby Quinn avoided that trap at the Big Mistakes premiere party by choosing pink lace Jimmy Choo pumps that brought lift, softness, and just enough contrast to sharpen her proportions.

The shoe did the quiet work. Quinn, who is 5 feet 2½ inches tall, wore Jimmy Choo’s Amita slingback pump in pink lace, a pointed-toe style with a pearl-embellished strap and a 45 mm heel. The V-cut vamp opens the top of the foot, the slingback keeps the line airy at the heel, and the lighter pink shade breaks up the visual weight of the gown. On a petite frame, that combination matters more than a towering platform ever could. It lengthens without shouting.

That is why the look landed. The black tulle gave the moment its drama, but the shoes prevented the silhouette from collapsing into one heavy column of fabric. Instead, the gown read formal and romantic, while the pumps added a crisp finish that made the whole outfit feel balanced. For petites, that is the real lesson: a formal shoe should not just be pretty, it should edit the body line.

Quinn wore the look in New York City on April 6 at The Russian Tea Room, where the cast turned out for the premiere party for Netflix’s Big Mistakes. The crime comedy, created by Dan Levy and Rachel Sennott, also stars Taylor Ortega, Jack Innanen, Laurie Metcalf, Elizabeth Perkins, Boran Kuzum, Jacob Gutierrez, and Mark Ivanir. Netflix has also pushed the series with a Sunset Boulevard billboard featuring a diamond necklace marked 4.9.26 and an augmented-reality necklace heist posted on its social channels.

The Amita sits in luxury territory, with retail listings putting the style roughly between $950 and $1,370 and the reported price at $975. That makes it a serious purchase, but the shape explains the appeal: a 45 mm heel is high enough to create line, low enough to stay elegant, and the slingback keeps the foot from looking boxed in. For wedding season, formal dinners, and any event where a petite frame risks getting swallowed by tulle, the formula is simple. Choose a pointed toe, a visible instep, and a lighter tone that breaks up the dress before the dress breaks up you.
