Amina Muaddi Dalida platform: 140 mm that walks like 100
Amina Muaddi Dalida platform: 140 mm that walks like 100
The Dalida is the Amina Muaddi platform: a square-toe slipper on a 140 mm flared heel with a 40 mm platform under the toe, so the pitch of the foot is closer to a 100 mm shoe. It comes in satin, nappa and the Glass version in clear PVC with a glass heel, and it is the house shoe for height without the pitch. The Aya sandal takes the idea to 155 mm with a 60 mm platform and an ankle strap. Luxury Handbags has 6 platforms live, listed below.

What the Dalida is
A platform mule. The toe is square and closed by a single band, like the Lupita, and under it sits a 40 mm platform that runs the length of the sole. The heel is the signature flare stretched to 140 mm, so the foot sits at roughly the pitch of a 100 mm shoe while the eye reads 140. The Glass Dalida cuts the band in clear PVC and the platform and heel in glass-effect plexiglass. The Aya is the sandal version: 155 mm with a 60 mm platform and a buckled ankle strap.

How to wear it
A long hem hides the platform so only the flared heel shows, which is the trick for black tie. Wide-leg trousers with a Dalida gain 10 cm of leg without a 140 mm pitch. Keep the rest of the outfit plain; the shoe has the volume.
Sizing
The Dalida runs true to size by the house product page and the band holds the foot, so take your usual EU size on the satin and nappa. On the Glass Dalida, PVC does not stretch and the house recommends half a size to a full size up. The full sizing guide has the EU, UK and US table. Every Amina Muaddi piece at Luxury Handbags is authenticated before dispatch and ships worldwide by DHL Express and FedEx International Priority. Most regions ship Delivered Duty Unpaid, so local duties and taxes fall due on import; the full terms are in the logistics and returns protocol.
