Tag Archives: fendiFendi green Gothic Romans cutout platform pumps
The green colour was the thing that drew my attention to Fendi’s Gothic Romans platforms, but once my attention had been duly grabbed, there was plenty there to hold it, because as well as the fabulous colour, these shoes also have an unusual, sculpted platform sole which uses two different types of wood. The leather uppers also have a snake print for added texture, plus cutout details, just in case all of that wasn’t quite enough for you. I think these are shoes that look better on than they do in the photo: if you don’t believe me, just click here to see them on the Net-a-Porter model, or to order them for £875. Most wanted from our sponsorsFendi Butterfly platform pumps
At first glance, I could’ve sworn these shoes were Miu Miu: the shape of the upper is very reminiscent of some of the shoes in their current collection, but these are, in fact by Fendi, and the slightly more streamlined shape is the giveaway. With a 6″ heel and 2″ platform, these should feel like you’re walking on four inches, but they will add a significant amount of height, which is worth bearing in mind if you feel you’re tall enough already (or if you have vertigo). The brown suede gives them an autumnal feel, and the mix of leather and suede creates a nice contrast. These are $790 and you can buy them at Neiman Marcus. Stripper shoes, by Fendi
Um, Fendi? I think we need to have a word. You see, maybe it’s just me, but every time I see shoes with a gigantic, perspex platform, I think “stripper shoes”. Which is a real shame in the case of these, because the top half of the shoe is gorgeous, and with a smaller, non-perspex sole, I’d probably have loved them. As it is, though, at £753, they’re just far too expensive to be looking so cheap. No to perspex soles, I say! Now, who’s with me? Fendi platforms, £752

Fendi black and white swirl suede pumps
At first glance, I though these were two different shoes. Happily, that turned out not to be the case: instead, it’s just a two-tone design, with black to the outside of the shoe and white on the inside. It’s certainly an interesting idea, but depending on how you stand, it WILL still run the risk of making you look like you put on two odd shoes by mistake – that’s how the Net-a-Porter model looks to me, but you, of course, may see these differently. If you do, they’re £470 and you can get them here. Fendi colourblock patent platform Fendi colourblock patent platforms Black and hot pink is normally way too 80s-tastic for me, but in the case of these Fendi sandals, I’m willing to overlook it – in fact, I think it really makes the shoe. In plain black, these would’ve been nice, but in this two-tone upper they’re even nicer, with the bright pink straps and heel giving them a bit of extra style. The problem with a colour this bright, however, is that it’s not particularly versatile, and that would be a problem for me given that these cost $720. If it wouldn’t be a problem for you, however, you can buy them at Bergdorf Goodman. Fendi platform court shoes with double stiletto heels
Gigantic, clumpy platforms like these are nothing new at the moment, so I’m mostly just showing you these ones by Fendi because of the heel. Or should that be “heels”? Seriously, I thought I had double vision when I first glanced at this shoe, with it’s double stiletto heels. Why are they there? What purpose do they serve? Well, none, really, other than to provide a talking point on an otherwise fairly boring shoes, I guess. And given that here I am writing about them, they seem to have succeeded on that score. What do you think of them, though? Worth $900? Nope, didn’t think so… Fendi platform court shoes, $909.51 Fendi lizard print platform shoes
Although I’ve admitted to loving animal print on shoes, reptile print is the exception to that rule, so these wouldn’t make it onto my shopping list anyway, but what do YOU think of them? If you think rather a lot of them, they’re £545 at Browns.

Fendi’s shearling ankle boots. They’re wearing a wig, aren’t they?
And to be honest, given that it’s Monday morning, and I’m still only on my first cup of coffee, I think that’s just a bit MUCH, no? So, these are Fendi’s shearling ankle boots. Now, putting aside the materials, which I know some of you will hate, I’m just going to point out the obvious: they’re wearing a toupe, aren’t they? And not only that, they’re wearing a really bad toupe. In fact, here’s all I can think of when I look at these… |

The words “6.5″ stiletto heel” are enough to strike fear into the hearts of even the most dedicated of stiletto fans, although it has to be said that the large platform sole on these shoes will make them feel a little bit shorter. It probably won’t make them feel any safer, though, and if you try to wear jeans or trousers with them you may find them flapping somewhere around your ankles thanks to the extra height.
