Vanna White had Twitter abuzz thanks to an outfit she wore on the latest episode of “Wheel of Fortune.”
The episode, which aired on Jan. 18, saw White on the arm of famed host Pat Sajak waltzing across the stage in a hot pink floor-length gown featuring an asymmetrical neckline and a revealing sky-high side slit giving way to a pair of high-waisted black leggings. The episode was won by Tricia Scaglione from Plantation, Fla., but focus of the episode ended up being directed in White’s direction.
The half-pink, half-black ensemble was worn alongside a pair of glossy black pointed-toe pumps that blended into the leggings, creating one long looking leg. The pair featured thin heels, around 3 to 4 inches, triangular toes, and a sturdy construction that offered the a more comfortable experience. Some users compared it to Kim Kardashian’s beloved Balenciaga pantaboots.
One Twitter user wrote, “The strangest thing Vanna has ever worn #WheelOfFortune it’s fashion, sweetly,” while another asked themselves, ““wtf is vanna white wearing tonight.” Another Twitter user quipped that the outfit “looked odd,” the heavy debate eventually drawing Marvel and “Star Trek” comparisons from some on the social media platform. “Someone stole half of Vanna’s dress…,” said another critic.
