Underneath was a cute mesh and a fluffy skirt. Her hair was straightened and tucked behind her ears to reveal beautiful pearl earrings. Shields paired her wow look with a gold clutch and chunky gold bangles.

Crocs as the eye-catcher of the evening
This time, however, it wasn't Brooke Shields' large neckline that caused a stir among her fans, but her unusual choice of shoes! The actress-beauty strutted down the red carpet in bright yellow Crocs. She cheekily lifted up her dress again and again to show off her funny choice of shoes. The photographers loved it, as Shields caused a flurry of flashbulbs.

Shields had "double toe surgery"
Brooke Shields' special choice of shoes had a specific reason, however. The star had to have surgery on both feet in recent days, which she revealed in an Instagram post on Friday.

"The pictures of the feet keep getting better... Double toe surgery," she wrote with a picture of her feet in a large black splint. Even though the Crocs probably serve a medical purpose and are for comfort, they were an absolute showstopper at the awards.
