Why it's worth it
Denim fabric, gold rope knot, and a gilded stiletto — three separate show-offs on one shoe.
The Edit
Woven denim vegan leather panels meet a smooth upper on this backless pointed-toe mule, with the contrast in texture doing the visual work before the eye even reaches the hardware. A polished gold rope-knot ornament anchors the vamp, sitting on a bar that runs clean across the instep. The 9.5cm gold stiletto heel terminates in a sphere at the column's top — sculptural from ankle to toe.
