Whether you’ve been a die hard fan of Sex and the City since the 90s, or have been newly introduced to Carrie Bradshaw’s universe through And Just Like That, you’ll know one thing for certain – no one has better taste in shoes. Although Carrie was known for her penchant for expensive designer shoes from brands like Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik, this season has seen Carrie occasionally swapping her Manolos for a much more affordable pair of heels.
In episode five of AJLT, Carrie was seen striding across her apartment in a montage of shoes, which included a show-stopping pair of orange and pink metallic platforms. And we’ve got good news for fans of Carrie’s shoe-drobe, because the Zia Mid Orange Pink Platform Block Heels are still available to buy from Terry de Havilland.

Whilst a pair of Carrie’s Manolos can cost anything from £500 to £1000, the Zia Platforms are far more affordably priced at £335. Sure they’re still a little bit of a splurge, but they’re designed to be a pair that you can wear time and time again, so you’ll end up with a much better cost per wear than those flimsy heels that break after a couple of nights dancing.
Plus, who doesn’t want to own their very little piece of Carrie Bradshaw-approved fashion history? The Zia Platform Heels have already sold out once since they appeared in the trailer for And Just Like That, and although they’re back in stock now, we’re pretty sure they’ll be sold out before long after having such an iconic moment in the spotlight on the show.
Each pair is made from 14 separately cut pieces of leather which are fitted together to create Terry de Havilland’s signature print, including a 70s-inspired lightning bolt down the heel and a stripe pattern on the toe straps. The pink and orange also play into the 70s glam vibe whilst still keeping it modern, and you could just as easily pair these with some flared denim and a band T-shirt as you could with a floral midi dress at a wedding.

If you need a slightly lower heel or a wider fit, this pair of Lupin Multi Strap Platform Heels Wide E Fit keep the same 70s-inspired look and pink and orange colourway, with a lower, broad block heel which makes them a little more stable – and they’re now £25, down from £50. If you prefer to stick to one colour, Joanie Clothing’s £99 Montpellier Metallic Leather Platform Sandals are ideal thanks to their metallic pink finish and retro platform design.
However, the Zia Platform Heels have been carefully designed to make them as comfortable and easy to walk in as possible. They also feature a secure ankle strap which keeps your ankles stable and your shoes secure, so you can do a Carrie-worthy strut without taking a tumble.
