Every now and then, celebrities slip into a head-turning shoe that is worthy of a conversation. That was the case with Taraji P. Henson this week, when she was spotted at Sirius XM Studios after an interview, wearing a pair of over-the-top Mugler platform heels.

Henson and her Broadway show “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone” costars Joshua Boone, Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Cedric The Entertainer and Brian Moreland, stopped by the radio show to talk about their play, and the actress opted for an all-black ensemble for the appearance. Her shoes were the Mugler 95mm Fang Sculpted-heel Boots. The eye-grabbing Mugler boots are crafted from black suede and feature a 95mm sculpted high heel.

They are characterized by a sharp, pointed toe, a lofty platform sole, and a white faux-pearl-embellished looped fastening that popped against the all-black look. The Mugler Fang heels feature a sharp, unique sculptural design, similar to an ankle boot but with a low vamp cutout that reveals the top of the foot. The shoes are currently available on luxury resale websites starting at $900.

She let the shoes shine by pairing them with knee-length capri leggings. On top, she wore a black taffeta jacket featuring a textured ostrich-effect print from the Elisabetta Franchi collection and retails for around $800. She paired the jacket with a fur coat on top, and a black Ruslan Baginskiy Crystal-embellished Baker Boy Cap, which retails for $600.

Henson made her Broadway debut as Bertha Holly in “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone,” which is a play by August Wilson. The story is set in a 1911 Pittsburgh boarding house, which explores the African American experience during the Great Migration, focusing on themes of identity, memory, and freedom through characters searching for lost family and purpose after slavery.

It’s part of Wilson’s “Pittsburgh Cycle,” a 10-play series chronicling Black life in each decade of the 20th century, and centers on Herald Loomis, a man haunted by his past enslavement by a bounty hunter named Joe Turner. It is directed by Debbie Allen and tickets are available now.
