Could I wear spiked platform heels with my dress?

[Thefined3mon]

Hi all I wanted some advice. I plan on wearing this dress below for prom and was wondering if I could pair them with spiked louboutins or is that a fashion faux pas?

Do you have the shoes already?
A school leavers prom? UK?

No the shoes aren’t with me right now. I’m in the US

They’d look very glamorous.
My feet are aching just looking at the photo.

I don’t think the two go. The dress feels more ethereal and needs a darker shoe.

Dark color wise or more so in vibe?

I don't think they compliment the dress but I also think you would hardly see them so could get away with it but the defeats the point of wearing them!

They don't look comfortable, they kind of need to be the star of the outfit (shorter dress) to make it worth the pain!

Those shoes are disgusting. Are they on trend right now? Why not go for plain LouBous with red sole? (I have these). Or another designer brand? Even the Valentino Rockstud (I also have them in nude) would be better.

Not sure about US fashions but that level of platform is pretty out of date in the UK (if you care about such things).

Exactly, what’s the point in hiding them with a long dress?

My brother (used to be a fashion photographer) had some of these shoes but different colour and closed toe, for a shoot a few years ago. They were huge, like a size 8/9.

Could you dance in those? (I couldn’t)

Your dress is giving all the wow - go for a simple, classy shoe/sandal that you find comfortable to wear and can dance in. And have fun!

My DD has similar shoes around 15 years ago! Usually worn with a mini dress as the shoes are the main show. Are the shoes new or vintage? I agree with others, go lower heels and plainer shoes!

The shoes are quite dated and don't really go with the dress.

Your dress is beautiful. I agree, try darker coloured shoes that you can dance in, if possible

Could You actually stand up in them? Making everyone nervous that you will fall over is not a good look.

You need a darker colour shoe I think with that dress. Try asking on Reddit as they will have specific fashion subs

They dont go with the lovely dress.
How is it possible to stand in them. My feet hurt just looking!!!

Can I just ask how a High Schooler in the US came across a UK parenting site for style advice? My mind is boggled!

Great dress. Awful shoes. In the U.K. the girls might wear prom trainers if there is such a thing.

For me those shoes aren't in fashion right now,

Personally when buying items like Louboutins i'll only consider the "classic" styles, anything with spikes, big platforms etc will only have a shelf life, a classic court will never be in or out of fashion but never look bad either,

The Valentino RockStud suggestion is a good one, they're a classy shoe

I love my Rockstars and so do my friends who have them. Surprisingly comfy too. My classic high loubous though, they’re not that comfy imo/e. I almost wish I hadn’t bought them and wouldn’t buy again.
