Flat shoes for black tie event

16 replies

GreyHoggy · 26/02/2024 09:39

Hi, I'm going to a black tie event next week and need some shoes. I'm wearing a long dress so thought it would be ok to wear flat shoes so I'm not in pain all evening?! Please can someone help me find some as I've looked everywhere. Either wearing a navy blue or champagne/biscotti coloured dress. Thank you!

I guarantee you haven’t looked everywhere!

But it rather depends on your budget and preferences …

@ranoutofquinoaandprosecco they are lovely but they don't have my size unfortunately
@Illpickthatup could defo be an option and might also work for a summer wedding I'm going to
@BlossomBlossomBlossom I think most of them are a little out my price range, thanks so much for looking though! Will have a further look at zara as only had a quick look at them yesterday

Try Boden - they've currently got some nice flats

@BlossomBlossomBlossom don't think I've ever had velvet shoes before!
@PoppingTomorrow thank you I love these and gold would be perfect
@harriethoyle thanks I'll have a look

They look like slippers. You can get flat velvet shoes which don't, but those just look like slippers.

The Oliver Bonas ones are beautiful

Pretty Ballerina has loads of flat dressy shoes

Esska allow you to search by heel height. This is a search for "shoes, sandals, flat, low heel".
