Manolo Blahnik Shoes

It’s not just Sex and the City’s Carrie Bradshaw who loves her Manolo Blahnik shoes. Manolos are the shoe of choice these days for everyone from celebrities to brides-to-be. They’re the shoes that every fashionista covets and the shoes that have caused more than a few credit cards to be maxed out. Here’s what you need to you about Manolos…

A Short History

“Please sir,” Carrie Bradshaw begs the man who’s just about to mug her, “You can take my Fendi baguette, you can take my ring and my watch, but don’t take my Manolo Blahniks.”

Such are the emotions that Manolo Blahnik shoes inspire. And the man who inspires the shoes, Manolo Blahnik himself, is no less extraordinary. Born in the Canary Islands, Blahnik’s parents hoped he’d become a diplomat. However, a childhood spent poring over his mother’s fashion magazines and watching her make her own footwear had spawned a lifelong fascination with shoes. He opened his own store in London in 1973, and the rest is fashion history.

Manolo Blahnik Shoe Styles

“You put on high heels and you change,” says Blahnik. This philosophy perhaps explains why so many of Manolo’s signature styles feature frighteningly high heels. Manolo devotees know that the higher the heel, the longer the leg and the more flattering the style. It’s one of the reasons these shoes have become the “must have” item for any fashion-forward female.

Although spindly heels and pointed toes form the mainstay of the collections, Manolo’s come in all shapes and sizes. There are pretty ballet flats and kitten heels, so you’ll have no problem finding a pair of Manolo’s to suit every occasion.

Spring Season at Manolo Blahnik

Animal prints feature heavily in Manolo’s 2006 Spring/Summer collection, with zebra print open-toe Mary Janes and leopard print pumps taking center stage alongside black, tan, and sequined offerings. Color is a big-part of the Blahnik collection, with multi-colored prints appearing on shoes of every style.

For summer days and nights, there’s also a selection of thong sandals, which come either with heels or without. You’ll even find mules in both leopard and tiger print.

One of the styles Blahnik is most famous for is the high-heeled Mary Jane, which is worn this season in patent leather and your choice of color. The slingback “halter” style, meanwhile, comes in low, mid, or high heels, and just about every color you can think of.

Who’s Wearing Them?

While Sarah Jessica Parker remains Manolo’s most famous fan (she even has a pair of the shoes named after her!), all of her Sex and the City co-stars have been spotted in the shoes. Supermodel Linda Evangelista also has a pair named after her.

Buying Manolo Blahnik Shoes

If you have a few hundred dollars to spare (Manolos are almost as famous for their price tag as for their style), you’ll obviously need to know where to buy a pair of your very own.

Most large department stores stock Manolo Blahnik.manoloblahnikretail.com – search for Manolo Blahnik shoes and see what you find!

Manolo Blahnik

Manolo Blahnik, a craftsman of beautiful, fine and delicate shoes, is often referred to as the ‘holy man of heels’ and is now regarded as one of the most prominent in women’s shoes.  But, how did this shoe genius become such an icon? As a young boy Manolo Blahnik was surrounded by a family with a true appreciation for shoes. Following in his mothers footsteps, who, in fact, designed and made her own evening shoes, Blahnik revealed a talent for shoe design from a young age.

After studying literature and architecture at the University of Geneva in 1965, Blahnik moved to Paris to develop his knowledge and skills in art and design at L’École des Beaux-Arts and L’École du Louvre.

In 1968 Blahnik moved to London to work in a fashion boutique, write for Vogue Italia and, as a result, introduce himself to a number of people in the fashion industry. Manolo Blahnik’s Career truly began in 1971 following a visit to New York with a portfolio of drawings and set designs. Diane Vreeland, the editor of US vogue spotted a sketch of a fantastic shoeintertwined with ivy and cherries which crept up the ankle. One year later Blahnik was designing and making shoes for Zapata, a boutique on Old Church Street, London. Soon after, fashion designer Ossie Clark invited him to create his first collection of shoes for a runway show.

In 1973 Blahnik bought Zapata and began to be described by Women’s Wear Daily as “one of the most exotic spirits in London”.

In 1974 Blahnik became the first man to appear on the cover of British Vogue which heightened his position in the worldwide fashion industry. He launched a collection for Bloomingdales, the US retail chain and opened his first US shop on Madison Avenue, New York.  Over the years, Blahnik’s shoes have graced the catwalks of the world’s leading designers including Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Calvin Klein, John Galliano,Isaac Mizrahi and Michael Kors.

Blahnik’s shoes, universally known as ‘Manolo’s’ have been worn by a number of famous clientele including Diana, Princess of Wales, Bianca Jagger, Kylie Minogue and many, many more. Madonna once described Blahnik’s shoes as “better than sex” then added “what’s more, they last longer”.

Manolo Blahnik’s shoes have been well promoted on a number of hit television shows; consequentially ‘Manolo’s’ have become a household name in the US. Marge Simpson wore a pair of Manolo’s in a 1991 episode of the Simpsons. Later, his name became even better known when his designs regularly featured, if not stared, in the hit television series ‘Sex and the City’. This detailed designer is responsible for a number of components of the creation of his ideas, from initial sketches to creating his own advertising campaigns which always feature his drawings.

In both 1991 and 1999 Blahnik was named Accessory Designer of the Year by the British Fashion Council and has received a number of awards over the years. He was given an Honorary Doctorate at the Royal College of Arts, London, awarded La Aguja de Oro (The Golden Needle) in Spain and made an Honorary Royal Designer for Industry in London.
As well as Blahnik’s shoe displays in boutique stores, he has exhibited his drawings, memorabilia and collections at the Design Museum in London.

Manolo Blahnik, who has achieved so much, continues to successfully design beautiful, delicate and unique shoes for any stylish lady.
