Start with the shoes | Dune London
Is there anything more appealing than a pair of beautifully crafted, well-fitting heels? The Dune Merticulous Mid-Heel Sandals are perfect for adding just enough glamour to be eye-catching stylish. Worn with this gorgeous embroidered Kaftan from KAS New York ~ Dune London’s Merticulous is your perfect partner!
Fashion’s love affair with metallics continues, and this trend has these past few seasons found its way onto the lustrous catwalk as well as the front row of runway shows that have bedazzled with bursts of gold and silver; pleated skirts that look fashioned out of a cauldron of melted metals or metallic backpacks that would be a magpie’s dream! But, if all-over metallics are too brazen for you, then a subtle way of following this season’s style, without looking like you’ve been dipped in molten gold, is to choose your footwear to channel this trend.
The good news is that the trend for Autumn/Winter 2016 leans towards the soft shimmers of burnished gold than the unabashed shiny gold, and Dune’s new collection showcases splendidly eclectic styles that are bound to make heads turn. For instance, these elegant Dune Merticulous Mid-Heel Sandals flaunt graceful jewel-embellished designs {another Dune London signature motif}, adding glamour to your wardrobe.
The Dune Merticulous Mid-Heel Sandals are a fabulous pair for any party. Designed with a twist {literally!}, and encrusted with crystals, these sandals can be worn with a chic party dress and a sparkly clutch to complete your look.
Details: Gold Lurex Slip-on Sandals with textile upper along with synthetic inner and handcrafted soles.
Why Mid-Heel Shoes are perfect ~
The easy way to dress up any outfit, that perfect ‘night out’ style and a wardrobe essential ~ the classic mid-heel ~ has always been a must-have for the glitzy model that struts the ramp to the nine-to-fiver. This season is all about updating this staple and bringing it into AW16.
- Mid-heels are comfortable enough to take you from daytime to evening, especially since not all of us can canter in sky-high stilettos for extended hours {if you can, I salute you :)}. For a mid-day celebration {birthday, wedding, festival} where the revelries continue until late into the evening, a mid-heel is the perfect choice allowing you to stay on your feet/dance without worrying about packing a pair of spare flats for when your feet get sore.
- It is no secret that heels can make your legs look longer, and a mid-heel will help show off your legs in their best light, without the risk of sore toes.
- If you’re planning on wearing a floor-length gown but don’t want to risk it trailing along the floor, a mid-heel will add to the beauty of your attire if you would rather not wear a stiletto.
- Kitten heels are just delightfully cute. A dainty pair of kitten heels can provide the perfect finishing touch to a lovely frock or an elegant floral dress. And for bridesmaids, taking your heel height to a ‘mid’ means you are less likely to tower over the bride {if you’re taller than her already!}.
Don’t forget to check out the amazing collection of Dune London at VR Bengaluru and pick your favourite pair. They have styles for everyday wear to party wear shoes and bags, which are perfect for the festive season, just like the glitter heels shown above.
