You can never go wrong with a pair of classic sling-backs and we recommend these Dior delights as the perfect new addition to your wardrobe. Designed for their autumn/winter 2017 show, they feature a red patent calfskin finish and a sleek strap forming a heart on the back. They were an unusually girly addition to a collection which had a distinctly militant and boyish mood, with the clothes models appearing to be dressed in modern 1940s factory uniforms. But showing their versatility, they were paired with everything from a medley of heavy denim to slouchy suits on the runway. For an added touch, they feature Christian Dior’s favourite motif on their heel: a golden star.
