Miu Miu ankle boots in black velvet with patent leather trim along the sole edge, lace up front, back zip and a chunky block heel with platform. Velvet and patent on the same shoe is exactly the material tension Miuccia Prada built Miu Miu around, girlish references pushed into something more complicated. The lug sole base keeps it from going too precious. Evening shoe that doesn’t look like it’s trying to be one.
