Amina Muaddi Lupita mules: the house slipper in every material
The Lupita is the Amina Muaddi mule, the shoe the house calls a slipper: a square open toe, one wide band across the foot and the flared signature heel in 70 mm and 95 mm. It is the shape most people picture when they hear the name, it is the base the Gilda is built on, and at Luxury Handbags it is the deepest style in the range, with 16 live colourways in satin, nappa, suede, mesh, raffia, gingham and crystal net. This page is the Lupita in full.

What the Lupita is
A mule with nothing to fasten: you step in and the band holds the foot. The toe is square and open, the band sits high enough on the foot to hold it, and the heel is the house signature, a stiletto that widens into a small cone at the base so the shoe stands steady. The 95 mm is the standard; the 70 mm is the day height and the one that sells out first each summer. The crystal net versions replace the band with a net of hand-set crystals; the raffia and mesh versions are the summer ones; the Glass Lupita cuts the band in clear PVC, and there is a Lupita wedge on a clear plexiglass block. The satin Lupita in black is the pair to own first: it goes with everything from a jean to a gown.

How to wear it
A satin Lupita comes into daylight with a wide-leg jean and a silk shirt; let the hem sit just above the heel so the flare shows. With a slip dress it is the easiest evening shoe in the range. The raffia and gingham Lupitas are holiday shoes with linen trousers. Keep the ankle bare: the band is the only line the shoe needs.
Sizing
The Lupita is the safe fit in the range. The house marks it true to size, the satin and nappa give a little with wear, and the band holds the foot, so take your usual EU size. Stay with your usual size rather than going up, because a mule with a loose band slips at the heel; the exception is the Glass Lupita in PVC, where 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.

Frequently asked questions
Are Amina Muaddi Lupita mules comfortable?
For a heeled mule, yes. The flared base stands wider than a pin heel, the band holds the foot without straps, and the 70 mm is a day shoe. The 95 mm is an evening shoe that lasts a dinner.
Does the Lupita run true to size?
Yes. Take your usual EU size. Do not size up on the satin and nappa, because a loose band slips; size up only on the PVC Glass version, per the house.
What is the difference between the Lupita and the Gilda?
The Gilda is the Lupita with a crystal ankle strap. Same toe, same band, same heel.
Which Lupita should I buy first?
Black satin 95 for the shoe as it is known, black satin 70 if it will be worn by day, white nappa for summer, a crystal net for an occasion.
How much are Amina Muaddi Lupita mules?
At Luxury Handbags the Lupitas run $1,200 to $1,680 with a median of $1,200; the raffia and satin sit at the bottom of the band and the crystal net at the top.
Can you walk in the Lupita?
Yes. The band holds the foot and the heel base is wide; walk with a slightly shorter stride so the mule stays on the heel, as with any mule.
