Ashley Graham was sparkling in gold for Tori Kelly’s birthday. The former Sports Illustrated model adhered to a 2000s theme, clad in a golden Poster Girl dress and $6,000 boots.

The model shared her outfit on Instagram last night. Graham’s party look consisted of a gold chainmail minidress — or “freakum dress,” as she described in the caption — with a daring low back, crisscrossing straps, and whimsical print detailing.

Graham stuck with all shiny gold accessories and slicked her hair up into a very spiky Spice Girls-esque updo per the party’s theme.

Although they weren’t visible in the photos shared on her Instagram, Graham completed her look with Jimmy Choo x Timberland pointed-toe ankle boots fitted with stiletto heels reaching 4.5 inches in height and a sleek lace-up silhouette. The $6,000 pair mimicked the look of Timberland boots but with a sparkling twist, they were fully embellished in Swarovski crystals.

In order to commemorate the festive moment, Graham posted a slideshow of images and videos from the party on her Instagram. The caption on the post read, “when it’s @torikelly’s 30th and she says 2000s, I show up in my bday freakum dress, ikyk 😜😜 (also the amount of tape I had to use to keep these girls up was obnoxious).”
