Dune are so very good at making evening shoes, and these tall beauties are no exception! While I usually don't like shoes with metal heels at all, the style works here as it picks up the shine on the diamanté corsage and contrasts beautifully with the suede. It makes for a seriously elegant look that has none of the tackiness I tend to associate with spike heels.
If you're looking for a 'grown up' party shoe that can work as part of a sophisticated ensemble, you could certainly do worse than this style: the sparkle is a little bit Aruna Seth without the epic price tag.
