• Asymmetric cross-over straps sit diagonally across the vamp, giving the front of the shoe a more considered, architectural look than a standard court.
• Faux patent leather delivers a high-shine finish that catches the light without the upkeep of real patent - wipes clean and holds its surface well.
• A sharp pointed toe draws the eye forward and lengthens the leg, working particularly well with cropped or midi hemlines.
• Mid heel sits between 5 and 6.5cm - enough lift to change the line of the leg without sacrificing comfort across a full day or evening out.
• Adjustable slingback strap with a gold-tone buckle fastening ensures a secure fit and adds a neat finishing detail at the heel.

The faux patent surface has a crispness to it - structured and smooth, it keeps its shape rather than creasing into the foot the way softer leathers do. That firmness is actually an asset here, because it lets the cross-strap detail sit exactly as intended, flat and precise across the foot rather than shifting with wear. The flared stiletto heel is slender without being spindly, giving the shoe real poise from every angle. Pair with wide-leg tailored trousers and a fitted blazer for a polished daytime look that works from the office through to an after-work dinner. They sit just as well beneath a knee-length wrap dress for a smart lunch or a family celebration. The slingback construction keeps the silhouette open and light, so even when styled with heavier suiting, the foot never looks weighed down. A versatile heel that earns its place at the front of the wardrobe.
