ACM Awards Shoe Moments Through the Years: From Taylor Swift to Shania Twain
The Academy of Country Music Awards has seen its fair share of bold shoe moments over the years, from Taylor Swift in glistening cowboy boots to Shania Twain in strappy platform sandals. With the annual awards ceremony coming up, FN is taking a stroll down memory lane to reminisce on some of the standout shoe styles to hit the ACM Awards right before the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards next week.
Martina McBride, 2021
In 2021, Martina McBride styled a bedazzled mini dress with matching sandals embellished with crystals. The strappy style wrapped around the “Concrete Angel” singer’s low legs, cutting off just below the knees, and boasted a thin, angular heel.
LeAnn Rimes, 2012
Nearly a decade earlier, LeAnn Rimes hit the red carpet in strappy grey leather platform sandals adorned with multiple buckles. The stiletto heels measured over 4 inches in height.

Shania Twain, 2003
Shania Twain wore strappy black platform sandals that wrapped around her ankle to the 2003 ACM Awards. The style also featured chunky block heels.
