To go backstage at Alexander Wang‘s Spring ’18 show held at an industrial lot deep in Bushwick, Brooklyn, you had to step on board the party bus. Once there, you’d be in the company of Jessie Bloemendaal and Kaia Gerber, who both modeled these high heel sandals on the runway. They are named after the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.
‘Kaia’ grosgrain-trimmed suede and PVC slingback sandals, $595 at Shopbop and Net-A-Porter
This black pair has been made in Italy from soft suede with a transparent PVC bar at the front. You can easily adjust the elasticated slingback strap so it won’t slip down as you’re walking or, more likely, dancing.
Made in Italy from velvety suede, this nude pair has a wide PVC panel that creates the illusion of longer legs and lingerie-inspired grosgrain straps for a secure, comfortable fit.
