Casadei Platform Sandal

“The name Casadei is synonymous with style, luxury and craftsmanship. Casadei opened its doors in 1958, when it was founded in Italy by Quinto and Flora Casadei. Quinto Casadei’s hard work and dedication to his distinctively feminine and sophisticated workmanship made him an immediate favorite with his female clientele. The key feature of Casadei shoes has been, and continues to be, their acclaimed femininity and existence as a true object of design. The Casadei shoe is crafted for a woman who is fashion-forward, business-minded and exudes self-confidence.”

Casadei Platform Sandal

This amazing sandal from Casadei is a chic work of art for your foot. Crafted in Italy, this shoe features a leather upper with multiple elasticated cross-over straps for a feminine look, a super sexy high heel measuring 5 inches that offers an alluring lift and a bold boost that completes the sexy silhouette, a 1 inch thick platform sole embellished with metallic chain detail for a distinctive look and an open-toe to show plenty of skin.

A fun partner to a chic dress, also wear this shoe to give a lift to denim or trousers.
