What shoes with this Ghost London dress for black tie wedding

Going to a wedding and dress code is black tie and ceremony is at 4.30pm. Have got this dress from Ghost which I’m hoping will do but no idea what shoes... any ideas or suggestions? I can’t manage super high stilettos anymore. There will be dancing!

Thanks but not sure about black! Feel a bit frumpy with the lower heel?

Black goes best with the dress... what other colour would you wear? Low heels are more fashionable right now but I'm thinking more an open toe low black heel would look better?

CharacterForming · 04/03/2022 22:45

Gold would be OK. What jewellery are you going to wear?

RedLemon · 04/03/2022 22:47

I like the Mary Jane strap idea but I’d prob go with gold and make them high with thin heel. Maybe a gold/gilded peep toe? Something vintage looking.

BurbageBrook · 04/03/2022 22:49

Oh gold's a great idea, didn't think of that.

CharacterForming · 04/03/2022 22:51

I randomly came across these, but it's a bit of a full-on pink look with the dress.

How about these ?

It's all personal preference but I prefer strappy or not black for a dress like that. Stunning dress though!

BIWI · 04/03/2022 22:53

What about something like this?

Not too high, but still look elegant

Wallawallakoala · 04/03/2022 22:54

I don't know why I'm now invested in this haha I think it's because I am in love with the dress!!

maybe?

RedLemon · 04/03/2022 22:54

Something like this US site but just to give an idea) www.dhgate.com/product/vintage-gold-wedding-shoes-women-pumps-kitten/233803284.html

@CharacterForming Love those, would look gorgeous! Black shoes are a bit boring.

viewsoftheshard · 04/03/2022 23:09

Something like this, or some of their other gold shoes. I had a similar pair from Zara years ago and they were great for dancing!

Beautiful dress as well

The Geox shoes are terrible. Please, please do not buy them.

All the block heels are terrible, but the Geox are the worst. The best are the Joe Brown's
Ruthietuthie · 05/03/2022 00:37

Lovely dress.
I would choose these, in a contrasting color such as this teal.

Or, for gold, what about these?

declutteringmymind · 05/03/2022 00:41

Maybe match the colour? The dress is the showstopper here, any contrast will detract from it.

RosesAndHellebores · 05/03/2022 00:48

I agree with decluttering. Have some silk shoes dyed to match.

I really like the Geox shoes BTW. Bobbies are also a favourite of mine.

trulyconfuseddotcom · 05/03/2022 00:59

How about some ballroom dance shoes? Would be comfy for dancing and not too high. https://www.jjshouse.co.uk/Women-S-Satin-Heels-Ballroom-Dance-Shoes-053151572-g151572/?utmterm=151572&utmmsize=38&gclid=CjwKCAiAjoeRBhAJEiwAYY3nDPYPb2Fkc9Vv4dQgJk-w9DJHrpGxuUzV7XAQu0rkbkW2l0MGYXEQlhoCQ4MQAvDBwE&ucid=3858#/

@RedLemon I think those would be ideal! Perfect for that dress

TheHoptimist · 05/03/2022 03:06
