How to style Amina Muaddi: evening, day, weddings and the bags

An Amina Muaddi shoe is a small object with a strong shape, and the simplest rule for wearing one is to let it be the only strong shape in the outfit. The flared heel and the crystal strap do the talking; everything above the ankle stays plain. What follows is how that works for evening, for day, for weddings and for the bags, with the pieces linked from the Amina Muaddi collection at Luxury Shoes .

For evening

A slip dress in silk and a Gilda is the house look, and it needs nothing else: no necklace, no bracelet, a bare ankle. The crystal strap is the jewellery. With a column dress, the Begum slingback does the same job from the toe rather than the ankle, and the brooch catches the light every time you walk. For black tie the Dalida platform gives height without the pitch of a 140 mm stiletto, and a long hem hides the platform so only the flared heel shows.

By day

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 is visible. The 70 mm version is the one for a full day. A nappa Holli slingback under a cropped trouser and a sharp blazer shows the heel from every angle, and this is the shoe to wear with tailoring in general. Match the shoe to the belt rather than to the bag.

On holiday

The Juliette and the Gigi on the 45 mm mini signature heel are the long-dinner shoes. 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 raffia and mesh Lupitas belong here too.

At a wedding

As a guest, a midi dress in one colour and a Gilda in a satin that matches it exactly, then the Camelia clutch in the same satin so the pair reads as a set without trying. The house makes the Camelia slingback and the Camelia clutch in the same shades for this reason. As the bride, the ivory and white satins and laces, the Gilda for the ceremony, and a Juliette, failing that a Gigi flat, in the bag for the dancing.

The bags

The Ami clutch under the arm of a black blazer over a slip skirt is the evening version; the Gemini on the shoulder with a knit and a long coat is the day version. The crystal bags, the Vittoria and the Paloma, want a plain dress and a plain shoe: one crystal piece per outfit.

Colour

Black satin goes with everything and is the first pair to own. The nudes, latte and champagne, lengthen the leg under a short hem. White and ivory are for summer and for brides. The brights, coral, red and mint, are the pair to buy for a specific dress. The Glass styles in clear PVC go with anything because they are almost not there, and the mirrors, silver and gold, take the place of jewellery.

The one rule, applied to the bags

The bags follow the shoe rule: one strong object per outfit. A Camelia clutch with a Camelia slingback in the same satin counts as one object, because the buckle repeats. A crystal Vittoria with a crystal Gilda does not; pick one. The Ami frame bag is the exception that goes with anything, because its surface is plain and the mirror is inside. By day the Gemini on the shoulder with a knit and a long coat is the whole outfit, and the shoe underneath can be a Juliette on the 45 mm heel.

Frequently asked questions

What do you wear with Amina Muaddi heels?

Something plain. A slip dress, a column dress, a wide-leg jean with a silk shirt, cropped tailoring, with a bare ankle and one piece of jewellery at most. The heel and the crystal strap are the detail.

Can you wear Amina Muaddi shoes during the day?

Yes. The 70 mm and 45 mm heels are made for it: a Lupita 70 with jeans, a Holli 70 with tailoring, a Juliette 45 for a long day out. The 95 mm and 105 mm styles are evening heels that work at lunch.

Which Amina Muaddi shoes are best for a wedding?

The Gilda for a guest and for the ceremony, matched to the dress in satin, with a Camelia clutch in the same shade. For the dancing, a Juliette on the 45 mm heel, failing that the Gigi flat.

Do Amina Muaddi bags match the shoes?

Yes, by design. The Camelia clutch closes with the rectangular crystal buckle of the Camelia slingback, and the house cuts both in the same satins, so a matched pair is straightforward.

Which Amina Muaddi shoes go with jeans?

The satin Lupita 70 and the nappa Holli 70 with a wide-leg and a straight jean; let the hem sit just above the heel so the flare shows.

What bag goes with Amina Muaddi heels?

The Camelia clutch in the same satin as the shoe for evening, the Gemini shoulder bag by day; the house makes the clutch and the slingback in matching shades.
