Anna Delvey is putting her best foot forward in the ballroom.
And that foot includes a blinged out ankle monitor.
The socialite con artist — whose real name is Anna Sorokin — brought attention to the accessory during the Season 33 premiere of “Dancing With the Stars” Tuesday.
Introduced at the top of the show as a “fashionista and entrepreneur,” Delvey, 33, took to the dance floor wearing an ankle monitor bedazzled to match her ombre blue, purple, pink and yellow ensemble. The device appeared to be capped off with a bow.
As “DWTS” tapes in LA, Delvey has been given special permission to take part in the competition series alongside new pro Ezra Sosa.
Sosa shared photos of him and Delvey in their primetime ensemble on Instagram shortly before the season premiere.
Delvey’s spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, confirmed that she could travel within 70 miles of her home base and anywhere in the five boroughs of New York City under previous house arrest conditions, per the Associated Press. However, they could not comment on any changes to those rules.
The New York resident has also been forced to wear an ankle monitor since her release from prison in 2022.
Delvey exclusively told The Post that she truly doesn’t want the “spectacle” that comes with wearing the GPS tracker.
“Every time I go out, what’s being written is I’m sporting the ankle bracelet or I’m flaunting it,” she explained in August. “People don’t seem to want to acknowledge that I don’t have a choice but to wear it.”
Delvey added: “It’s just like I would not want to make such a spectacle out of this. I would love to be able to go out, and not be stared at or like not every delivery person asking me if I killed my husband, or something.”
On her way to a June court appearance, she decided to have some fun with the ankle bracelet by putting the letter “A” in rhinestones on it. “I’ve been wearing one for almost two years. I think, once or twice, it’s my right to bedazzle it,” Delvey continued, with one ICE source calling her the “bedazzled b—h.”
But as a new season begins, Delvey has some concerns when it comes to the fashion department.
“I think the biggest hurdle is the over-the-knee boots but the fall season is still upon us,” she confessed. “So far I’ve had bigger issues to worry about.”
The “fake heiress” was arrested in 2017 for defrauding major financial institutions, banks, hotels and friends out of more than $250,000 to fund her luxurious lifestyle by pretending she was the daughter of a German oil tycoon.
Two years later, Delvey was convicted on eight charges, including attempted grand larceny, larceny in the second degree and theft of services, but was acquitted on two additional charges.
Delvey was released in February 2021 after being sentenced to four to 12 years in prison, which included time spent behind bars during trial.
But her legal woes were far from over as Delvey was then detained by immigration authorities for overstaying her visa.
In 2022, Delvey was released from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody, where she spent over a year at the Orange Country Correctional Facility.
Following the ordeal, she told the New York Times, “I definitely have a way different perspective now than I did when I came out the first time last February. It’s just impossible to have been through what I’ve been through without changing. I learned so much being in jail.”
The whirlwind tale led Shonda Rhimes to write “Inventing Anna” from the perspective of the journalist (played by Anna Chlumsky), who viewers thought was based on the real-life reporter, Jessica.
Delvey has seen parts of the Netflix drama and finds the fictional version of her (played by Julia Garner) more “brazen” than she.
“I think I’m more self-aware of the way I come across, not all of the time, but I just don’t think that I’m so brazen and shameless,” she told the New York Times.
