Dame Mary Berry was spotted arriving at the 2026 BAFTA Television Awards earlier today, and not only has her elegant blush-pink dress caught our attention, but we’re loving her block-heeled pumps with bow detailing \u2013 what a comfortable alternative to stilettos.<\/p>\n

Receiving a ‘BAFTA fellowship’ today, the academy’s highest honour for her exceptional television work, Mary Berry graced the red carpet in a long-sleeved midi-dress from British clothing brand<\/a> Holland and Cooper.<\/p>\n

The blush-pink Lucie Dress<\/a> was complemented by her low block-heeled pumps, which matched the soft pastel pink colour of her dress. And with wedding season upon us, we’re taking inspiration from her practical choice of footwear.<\/p>\n

Block heels tend to be much more supportive than classic stiletto heels because they distribute your weight evenly, offering more surface area when you walk. They also offer you height without any discomfort, making them ideal for finishing off the best summer wedding guest dresses<\/a>.<\/p>\n
