Designer Platform Sandals You can Still Rock In Fall

Contrary to popular belief, the end of summer doesn’t have to mean the end of designer platform sandals. Whilst leaving the house in open-toe flats might be behind you for a few seasons, these platform designs will work perfectly until the weather really cools off. For example, the patent platform sandals by Prada. With a sleek patent finish, chic ankle straps, and the brand’s signature logo, these heels will be the ideal finishing touch to countless evening looks. Style them with strappy little black dresses now, then with sleeved silhouettes throughout fall. Alternatively, why not mix things up with a metallic pair like the Amali 130 leather platform sandals by Christian Louboutin? We’ll be styling these with printed summer dresses now, then with darker, printed dresses next season.

 

Another pair we’re dying to add to our lineup? The Saeda 125 crystal-strap platform sandals by Jimmy Choo. Bringing the platform style to the front of the shoe, these sandals are irresistible. Not to mention, they’ll look amazing with every evening dress you own whether it’s printed or rocking a chic block-color design. Additionally, with their all-black colorway and sparkly, crystal-embellished ankle strap, these shoes will be your go-to for late summer evening events and even holiday parties later in the year!
