Dua Lipa sported towering platform sandals on the red carpet at the launch of Saint Laurent’s new fragrance, “Libre,” yesterday in Madrid.

For footwear, Lipa selected YSL’s Paige sandals, which add 5.7 inches of extra height (they have a 3.3-inch block heel and 2.3-inch platform). The Paige has a tie at the ankle and criss-cross straps at the toe; YSL.com has it in stock for just under $1,000.
For fall ’19, platforms are back in a big way. Brands like Gucci and Rick Owens portrayed the shoes on the runway in aggressive, intimidating fashion — while Givenchy and Jimmy Choo showed more feminine, office-appropriate styles.
The “Electricity” hitmaker completed her look with delicate rings and simple jewelry. She wore her hair in a fringed bob complete with Cleopatra-style bangs.
The two-time Grammy winner is a YSL Beauté ambassador and the face of Libre.
When it comes to fashion, Lipa tends to favor styles from high-end labels. Aside from YSL, go-to brands include Versace, Valentino and Jacquemus. For shoes specifically, the Brit is a fan of buzzy rising designer Amina Muaddi, who also has support from Rihanna, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner.
