Manolo Blahnik “Something Blue” Satin Pump $945 NeimanMarcus
Martinez Valero “Zenith” Pump $164 Zappos
When we first launched Hall of Shame, we had no idea the controversy and anger it would cause! For clarification, The Shoe Goddess does not believe that you have to be spend thousands of dollars to be fashionable. In fact, we often review shoes that are inexpensive. But what we can’t condone under any circumstances is stealing someone’s work. Whether it’s a scam where counterfeit items are sold (see Scam Alert) or a shoe that’s almost exactly the same as a designer original but sold under a legitimate brand, it’s not right.
When I spotted this knockoff, I was completely flabbergasted! I think Manolo Blahnik’s “Something Blue” satin pump is stunning! I always have, but because it’s from Sex and the City (the movie), it’s almost iconic, and it’s not a shoe I personally would want to own. But even worse would be owning a knockoff of it! Martinez Valero should be ashamed! This shoe is almost exactly the same, just much cheaper looking, especially the crystal broach! Ladies, avoid this shoe! You can find an inexpensive shoe without buying a knockoff!
