Amina Muaddi Gigi and Juliette: the crystal and plain thong sandals
Amina Muaddi Gigi and Juliette: the crystal and plain thong sandals
The Gigi is the Amina Muaddi crystal thong: a round toe, straps of hand-set crystals and the mini signature heel in 45 mm, with a 95 mm version and a flat. The Juliette is the plain thong on the same 45 mm heel in patent, croc-print calf and snake-print goatskin. Between them they are the day shoes of the range, the ones for a long dinner on uneven ground, and Luxury Handbags has 16 live. This page covers both.

What the Gigi and the Juliette are
Both are thong sandals: a strap between the toes and a strap across the foot, a round toe and the mini signature heel, the flared cone at 45 mm. The Gigi sets the straps with crystals, and comes as a sandal, a slipper, a 95 mm version and a flat. The Juliette keeps the straps plain, in pearly patent, shiny croc-effect calf and natural snake-print goatskin, and it is the one to wear every day of a holiday. Neither is a pointed style, so neither carries the house’s size-up warning.

How to wear it
Wide linen trousers and a tank by day, a floaty dress in the evening, and nothing on the ankle to compete with the thong strap. The Gigi flat in silver mirror is the shoe to carry in the bag for the dancing at a wedding. The Juliette in croc goes with a white shirt and a straight jean.
Sizing
Both run true to size per the house product pages and neither is pointed, so take your usual EU size. A thong holds at the toe post rather than the heel, so do not 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.
