Candy-coloured platform heels lifted the fanciful looks at Mary Katrantzou’s fall 2017 runway show.

Now's the time to feel all high and mighty. Fall's best footwear gives you a lift thanks to a chunky platform sole, novel textures and decadent detailing. Designer Mary Katrantzou paired two-tone bejewelled loafers with an embellished frock; the quirky combination took the preciousness out of evening dressing while retaining a sense of luxury. Miu Miu and Gucci added costume pearls to their platforms, while Sies Marjan's Mary Janes are slick in plummy patent leather. Dorateymur, a handcrafted shoe line based in London, paired weighty wooden heels with silver leather. And Christian Louboutin proves masterful when it comes to the mix; his architectural wedges in leather and suede are both conceptual and chic. Wear your sky-high heels with brightly hued socks or patterned tights for the most elevated results.
