Why Amina Muaddi is worth it
Amina Muaddi makes glamour feel engineered: Italian-made heels on one flared, sculptural shape that turns a slingback or crystal slipper into the whole look.
Every pair is designed in Paris and handcrafted in Italy, in calfskin, satin or clear PVC, lined and soled in leather. The heel is the point: it widens at the base like an inverted pyramid, in several heights, and the straps are often strung with crystals. Evening bags and crystal jewelry carry the same high-shine, after-dark mood.

About Amina Muaddi
Amina Muaddi grew up between Jordan and Romania, studied fashion in Milan and learned shoemaking in Italy's Riviera del Brenta. After co-founding another footwear label and designing shoes for a Paris couturier, she launched her own brand in 2018.
It was built around a new heel, flared and sculptural, that quickly became her signature. Rihanna asked her to design shoes for Fenty, and the label grew to take in evening bags and crystal jewelry.

What shoppers say
From reviews and try-on videos, in our words.
- Fit
Most styles are marked true to size, but the brand says pointed-toe PVC styles such as the Begum run small, so go a half to a full size up. It suggests sizing up in the Alexa slipper too.
- Care
The brand calls its pieces fragile: keep them in their dust bag, out of the sun and away from heat, and clean them only with a soft, dry cloth.
- Shipping
Orders ship free by DHL from its Italian warehouse, arriving in 2 to 4 business days, and US prices already include taxes and duties, so nothing is due on delivery.
- Returns
Returns within 14 days of delivery are free with its prepaid DHL label, and you can swap for another size. After two returns, the shipping and customs on the next one are yours to pay.
