Cardi B Debuts Towering Custom Python Boots by Thom Solo at ‘Am I the Drama?’ Album Signing
When a pop culture powerhouse strides into view, the beauty of the moment is in the details. This week, Cardi B took that truth to dizzying new heights, pairing laid-back separates with unapologetically bold boots in Los Angeles. It’s the kind of high-low glamour Malibu Elixir readers love—effortless, luxe, and just a little bit dangerous. Consider this your front-row seat to a masterclass in statement footwear.
Cardi’s High-Impact Street Moment
Fresh off the release of her sophomore album, “Am I the Drama?,” the rapper touched down in L.A. for an album signing and meet-and-greet. She kept her cool in the heat with micro-denim shorts and a crisp white tee from her tour merch, subtly shielding her growing baby bump.
Styled by Posh McKoy and Kollin Carter, Cardi offset the casual look with sky-high, custom Thom Solo platform boots that turned the sidewalk into a runway. It was polished, playful, and powerfully on-brand.

Custom Craft Meets Accessibility
Exclusively made for Cardi in collaboration with Carter and McKoy, the boots extend a growing partnership with Thom Solo. Earlier this month, she debuted a black Croc-Embossed Thigh-High Opera style from the brand—a sleek, glossed counterpart to this python moment.
Most exciting for shoe lovers: Thom Solo Atelier is now welcoming made-to-order commissions beyond celebrity closets. Translation: your dream boots can move from mood board to reality with the designer’s hand.
Statement boots as the centerpiece—Cardi’s signature formula.
Fashion as the Loudest Megaphone
For this era, Cardi’s message is clear: let the footwear speak first. From her album imagery to video looks, boots and sky-scraping heels have become narrative anchors—iconic, immediate, unforgettable.
Back in June, she even nudged the industry to raise the bar, calling for taller, stronger, more exciting silhouettes. The mission hasn’t wavered—and designers are answering the call.
The It-Shoe Hunt
For the promo blitz, Cardi’s tapped a sharp roster, including Chanel, Betzábe, and Le Silla. It’s proof that the right shoe doesn’t just complete a look—it commands the entire frame.
Consider this your cue to embrace the statement pair that makes you stand a little taller and glow a little brighter.
Style Notes to Steal
- Balance drama with ease: pair bold boots with a simple tee and mini for effortless proportion.
- Choose texture with intent: embossed leathers and exotic prints elevate even minimal outfits.
- Go custom when possible: a made-to-order fit ensures comfort, confidence, and true originality.
