Carrie Bradshaw: I really love my Dior Extreme Gladiator Platform Shoes
posted by: Shomore in Christian Dior Shoes, I really love my shoe on May 13th, 2008
Warning: This post contains photos from the upcoming Sex in the City Movie.
Or should I say Patricia Field, the costume designer for SATC, really loves Dior’s Extreme shoes since she’s the one that dressed the character Carrie Bradshaw?
ET Online reported that Sarah Jessica Parker went through 81 wardrobe changes for the SATC movie. If you count the 4 shots below, Sarah Jessica Parker wore the Dior shoes a whopping 5% of the time so I would say this falls in the ‘I really love my shoes’ category for this blog. According to Marene Gustin from ShoeTube everyone is also in love with the peeptoe Dior Extreme gladiator platforms. When she called the local Dior boutique, she got a response of
“Yeah, you’re like the 1,900th person to call about those. They don’t make them anymore and not even the outlets have them.”
Ouch. Luckily, for you fashionistas out there, we’ve spotted the line for you. The Dior Extremes are now available in select sizes at Eluxury for $770. I’m seriously thinking of getting a pair if only to collect them and help me reminiscent about SATC. For those on a more shoestring budget, the knock off pair can be found at ASOS for £55.00. I suspect both Eluxury and ASOS will be out of stock soon.

Well, how much those shoes (Extreme Dior) coast? Like 800 dollars??

I would not kick out $780 for the Diors because the look can get dated very quickly. Its not like a classic pair of pumps, get the Bakers or Steve Madden version. I've seen even cheaper non-leather versions, by Anne Michelle, but they look too cheesy to even consider.

hey guys, i actually bought a pair of knock offs of these shoes at kohl's today. they are only in store, but they are worth checking out. cheaper than bakers too. my friend said the bakers ones were very uncomfortable.

ASOS.com have just had another delivery in of their dior – style shoes. Must have been a bigger order cause i was able to buy some this time after wishing for them since the movie.
I am not a big heel wearer but ive had no problems walking round the house in them (i love them that much!) but i just need to find an excuse to wear them now!

hello, well i hope this helps some what…
i saw the gladiator platforms at Bakers, but luckily i decided to shop around and i found the exact same shoes at Charlotte Russe store for $29.99 and again at A'GACI for $27.99. The shoe looks just like the Dior version, except the strap doesn't go around the back heel & of course at that price it's faux leather, but they are comfy. it's a 4 1/2" heel Studded Gladiator Platforms available in black, brown, pewter.
Here's the website URL to Charlotte Russe: http://www.charlotterusse.com/product/index.jsp?p…

Hi .. i just wanted to know if the bakers shoes version have the back strap on like how the dior does? some poeple said it was exactly the same however i know the dior extreme shoes has that strap that goes around the back heel. please let me kno.
August 02, 2008 at 10:13 am, Mayra said:
hey ladies, i just bought the bakers version, pretty much identical to the diors except the back strap is different. I'm usually a 9 but had to buy a 9.5 they run a little small. I tried on the 10 but i was pretty much swimming in them. Good luck and happy shopping. P.S i just ordered the tan ones on line, i'm inlove.

I just bought the Baker's version of the Dior sandals. They are awesome!!! I thought since they were cheap, that my feet would hurt, but they're real nice and comfy. The leather is relatively soft. I heard that they're restocking on the 21st. I just wish they'd make the gold version!

I bought the knock off pair in black, that are almost identical from the Dior's one and they have large sizes too from

hey ladies..i went to my local bakers today and tried to try them on…how do they fit. i wear a 8..but they had a 7.5 and a 10 only in tan, i couldnt even get my foot in the 7.5, and strangly the size 10 was almost a perfect fit, the sales person told me to order a 9 online, but im nervous that wont fit..any suggestions? are you finding they are true to size?

Hey Ginni,
you can find almost the exact same dress at asos.com

I bought the Steve Madden pair and the platform is only 1/4 inch which makes these shoes VERY uncomfortable. Also, the shoes from Bakers look more like the Dior shoes than the Madden's shoes do (Bakers are about $30 cheaper and have a higher platform which means more comfort) I have problems with my feet and I've noticed that if there is enough platform I have no problems and can wear very high heels for hours on end!
Has anyone found where you can get a knock-off of the green floral coat???

i would love to buy the candice's from bakers, but size 10 is their highest size! i would need a size 11-12 (yes, i have large feet). do you think i could squeeze myself into a 10?

Hi! I just bought ones that look EXACTLY like the Dior Extreme ones. They were about $70, and I ordered them from bakersshoes.com.

Maybe I'm alone here, but I don't really think these shoes are all that. The fronts are too clunky for such a delicate heel, for my tastes, plus I suspect that on people who are not SJP, you'd run the risk of looking like you have some serious cankles.
May 13, 2008 at 5:04 am, Brandi said:
Or you can buy the knock off pair, that are almost identical from HERE..
I saw these in a Marie Claire and I am totally in love with them.
