A Stunning Illusion in New York City

High Heel Bodypainting at Vanessa Noel’s Shoe Gala

For this unique event, WB Production coordinated the booking and management of two models presented as live art illusions. Positioned at the entrance of the gala, they quickly became the visual highlight of the evening. Guests were captivated by the striking bodypainting illusion of two high heels, masterfully crafted by Johannes Stötter.

The models appeared seamlessly transformed into a sculptural, hyperrealistic high heel—so convincing that many attendees had to look twice. Throughout the night, guests photographed, admired, and interacted with the living artwork, creating an unforgettable artistic statement that perfectly complemented Vanessa Noel’s world of high-end fashion.

An extraordinary fusion of fashion, music and art at Vanessa Noel’s exclusive Shoe Musuem Gala, hosted inside the breathtaking St. Bartholomew’s Church in Manhattan, New York City.
