Manolo Blahnik Sandals
Manolo Blahniks were always favorites of celebrities, socialites, and fashionistas, but thanks to HBO’s “Sex and the City,” perhaps no other premium shoe designer is now so well known to the general public. Manolo Blahniks were a particular favorite of Carrie Bradshaw, the show’s main character, and it’s easy to see why. Manolo Blahnik’s creations are of the highest quality, impossibly stylish, and more comfortable than you would imagine stiletto heels could be.
Manolo Blahnik is a Spanish-born fashion designer who moved to London in the 1960s. Originally he designed clothing, too, but discovered his true passion was for designing shoes. In 1972, he opened his first boutique in Chelsea, London. Today his shoes are sold in high-end boutiques and department stores around the world, and because of the internet, his creations can be ordered and worn by women living in even the most rural areas.
In addition to the classic styles, Manolo Blahnik introduces seasonal collections several times per year. In the spring, open-toed sandals and pastel colors are popular; for summer, there are brightly-colored sandals that range from delicate and feminine to edgy and tough. Fall and winter bring richer colors and luxurious leather boots. The seasonal collections are more trendy and fashion-forward than the classic collection. Some are made from ultra-luxurious materials such as crocodile, lizard, and eel skin.
