The Best Manolo Blahnik Shoes On Screen (Besides Carrie Bradshaw’s)
Though Manolo Blahnik is best known for being Sex and the City protagonist Carrie Bradshaw’s preferred purveyor of strappy stilettos, the Spanish-born, London-based shoe designer’s on-screen legacy extends far beyond the small screen’s best-known shopaholic.
Since the early ’80s, costume designers have deployed his elegant lasts to help bring to life characters ranging from peppy editorial assistants (hello, Andy Sachs), through to supremely well-dressed vampires, all with maximum impact. Some, like Carrie’s Hangisi wedding heels, are available to buy today, while others, like those created for Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette, were exclusives that never made it into stores.
Here, Miss Vogue takes a journey through film and TV history to discover Manolo Blahnik’s most magical moments on screen.
