These Dior Django sandals are fit to be in the presence of royalty. Certainly the purple shoes already have the color associated with royalty but they also have a timeless presence as they are gilded in gold straps forming the infinity symbols. For that extra embellishment, the heel is gold plated with a tiny “D” charm.

Eluxury is currently have a spring sale. These beautiful creations are still a pretty penny at$395 but they were originally $660. Most of the sizes are still available too…except for mine (size 37). Whew - I escaped that one.

Remember how we mentioned that Patricia Field, the costume designer for SATC, really loves Dior’s Extreme shoes? Well, here’s further proof:

Exhibit A: In a (dream?) sequence in the SATC movie, Carrie is pairing her Vivienne Westwood wedding dress with champagne colored Dior Extremes. I’ve seen many styles of shoes on brides, but gladiator platforms would be a first.

Exhibit B: At a SATC premiere, Patricia Field (right) with Vivienne Westwood (left) was also seen in those black Diors.

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.

NY Mag recently did a street interview with a few men to get their take on spring designer shoes by Giambattista Valli (top left), Prada (top right), and Dior (bottom left and right).

Can you guess this of these shoes looked like Adidas? Frankly, I had a hard time picturing it.
