Wow factor shoes - help

[PegasusReturns]

This seems weirdly impossible.

I’ve got a big event - fingers crossed - in the summer and I’m looking for some fabulous shoes, preferably neutral but could do pink/coral/pastels etc. But key is wow factor.

I’ve spent hours looking and don’t think I’m that fussy but cannot find anything.

So criteria:
Not flats but max 70mm heel
Not black
No Perspex or glitter
Definitely leather
Stylish not “quirky” so no irregular choice.

No real budget, I’ll pay for something amazing. I feel like I’ve looked everywhere and everything is just so dull.

@MassDebate the shoes I linked at the beginning are Sophia Webster, but they are literally the only ones that might work with the right heel height.

OP have you looked at Dear Frances or By Far? Nothing too sparkly unfortunately but they have lots in the right heel height.

@BlairWaldorfLovesShopping I gave some lovely By Far heeled mules but not “wow” enough for what I’m looking for.

Off to google Dear Frances

Ah I didn’t notice the Sophia Webster ones you’d linked to. How about Lucy Choi? These are nice and simple but v pretty: silver shoes

I rate the website farfetch as you can filter via heel height and they have a well curated selection of designers. Here are a couple that might fit your requirements: www.farfetch.com/uk/shopping/women/valentino-garavani-rockstud-65mm-slingback-pumps-item-16216641.aspx?storeid=11305

Someones already posted Chie Mihara but I think worth posting again.

I had these in pink for a wedding. Also look at the roselita same style but more embellishments.

what about Gianvito Rossi - pricey but oh so comfortable

Valentino?

Chie Mihara does amazing and beautiful shoes: www.chiemihara.com/en/

She is based in Spain, and I’ve not ordered since Brexit, so not sure what the situation is with taxes and duties. There are a few stockists in the UK though, I think Liberty used to stock them.

Have you tried Emma Hope? These are 70mm.

Thanks for even more links!

@Hodgewell1 I didn’t realise Farfetch collated new items I though it was just second hand. Had a great trawl and lots on offer there that I hadn’t seen on Net a Porter or My Theresa which tend to be my go to.

Love love love the Valentino sling backs but only available for teeny feet sadly.

Will check out Chie Mihara now.

What size do you need? Those Valentino shoes are available on various different sites so may have your size elsewhere.

Try United Nude They do a lot of their styles in flat, mid and high versions. I'm a particular fan of the eames shoe for instant WOW factor. The fold shoes are also surprisingly comfortable.

@DialSquare I need a 39 in Valentino slingback. Can’t find them anywhere!

My link below has them in a size 39 @PegasusReturns



Your link didn’t post @DialSquare

Does this work?

Those gold Aquazzuras Fiona linked to are FABULOUS. The Alaias a close second!

Thanks @DialSquare those are the pumps not the sling backs.

What about these? 85mm heel though. But gorgeous!!!

Sorry @PegasusReturns I didn't realise a different pair of Valentino had been posted. I thought I'd looked at all the other posts but missed that one. I'm bound to see loads of shoe adverts now so will keep my eye out for something similar.

Any good? They say UK delivery
at the moment is duty paid.

It's strange- I can't find that lattice-front Valentino anywhere

Is there any way the ones on Far Fetch could be fakes, given how much copied rockstuds are generally?
