About Stuart Weitzman’s “Nudist” Sandal
Stuart Weitzman debuted the barely there “Nudist” stiletto sandal back in 2013. German actor Diane Kruger was the first celebrity to wear and help popularize the classic shoe, which has since become a red carpet classic. The “Nudist” shoe features a slim strap across both the toes and the ankles, a matching leather counter cup at the heel and a 3.4-inch stiletto heel.
The heels are such a classic that the brand continues to update and revisit the silhouette in different colors and materials, such as shiny metallic leather.
The Metallic Shoe Trend
Metallic shoes, especially in gold and silver tones, started to take over fashion in 2022. The style has continued to gain a consistent spot in designers’ collections since then. Several high-end labels like Bottega Veneta, Prada and Manolo Blahnik have included the shiny material in their runway shoes over the past couple months.
Popular metallic heeled styles include the $1,150 Valentino Garavani metallic leather stiletto pumps and the Jimmy Choo Ixia pumps, priced at $683.
