The right pair of shoes can completely change the character of an outfit. A sharp stiletto can make tailoring feel more confident, a metallic platform can introduce glamour, and a minimalist sandal can bring balance to a bold evening look.
Schutz is known for contemporary women’s footwear that combines distinctive silhouettes with polished materials and fashion-focused details. Its collection covers everything from refined pumps and slim mid heels to dramatic platforms and barely-there sandals.
Here are four styles designed to make an impact.
Keefa Gold Platform Sandal
Listed price: $178
The Keefa Sandal brings a clear sense of retro glamour to modern evening dressing.
Its metallic gold leather finish catches the light, while the criss-cross toe straps create a structured but feminine shape. A substantial block heel and raised platform provide the dramatic height associated with a statement shoe.
The metallic colour makes this style particularly effective with black dresses, neutral tailoring, satin fabrics and evening outfits. It can also add contrast to denim when the aim is to make a more casual look feel intentional.
This is the strongest option in the selection for parties, celebrations and occasions where the footwear should be a central part of the outfit.
Best paired with: mini dresses, wide-leg trousers, evening jumpsuits and clean monochrome looks.
Boris High Stiletto Pearl Pump
Listed price: $138
The Boris High Stiletto Pearl Pump offers a sharper and more structured interpretation of the classic slingback.
Made with a leather upper and leather outsole, the pump features a pointed toe, an open back and a slim buckle strap around the ankle. The pearl-white finish gives it a clean appearance that works particularly well for formal events, bridal styling and polished evening outfits.
The Boris is a strong choice for anyone looking for a light-coloured heel that still feels modern and assertive.
Best paired with: bridal tailoring, cocktail dresses, cream suiting and black-and-white evening outfits.
Elodie Sugar White Leather Sandal
Listed price when checked: $148
The Elodie Leather Sandal takes a more understated approach.
The off-white Sugar White shade makes it easy to combine with warm neutrals, denim, soft pastels and summer tailoring. The simplicity of the upper also allows it to complement clothing with stronger colours, prints or textures.
Its clean lines make the Elodie especially versatile. It can work with an evening dress, but it can also sharpen jeans and a blazer or add a polished finish to a simple slip skirt.
Best paired with: straight-leg denim, slip dresses, linen tailoring and neutral summer outfits.
Scarlett Sling Mid Black Sandal
Listed price: $158
The Scarlett Sling Mid Sandal is the most direct day-to-night option in this edit.
Its glossy black patent finish creates a sleek, light-reflective surface, while the narrow front strap keeps the overall silhouette minimal. An elastic slingback secures the shoe without introducing a visible buckle or heavy fastening.
A black patent sandal is useful because it can move between different dress codes. It can complete a simple dinner outfit, add polish to tailored trousers or provide a clean finish beneath a more elaborate dress.
Best paired with: black dresses, tailored trousers, satin skirts and bold evening colours.
Choosing the Right Style
Each shoe serves a different purpose.
Choose the Keefa when the goal is height, metallic shine and a noticeable platform silhouette. The Boris is better suited to sharp, formal styling and occasions where a pointed slingback feels appropriate.
The Elodie provides the cleanest and most versatile option, particularly for lighter outfits and warm-weather dressing. The Scarlett offers a classic black evening shoe with a polished patent finish and a manageable mid-height heel.
