Anna Wintour Doesn't Even Look at Shoes That Aren't This Brand
Where Anna Wintour leads, we follow. We take heed of whatever she declares her favorite or least favorite trends, so you better believe we're all ears when she reveals her favorite shoe brand: Manolo Blahnik.
In a documentary about Blahnik called Manolo: the Boy Who Made Shoes for Lizards, Wintour makes a bold claim about her love for the Spanish designer: "I can't remember the last time I wore anybody else's shoes—I mean, I just don't even look at them," she says in the film. Considering she has access to every designer under the sun, it's certainly a strong statement.
Remember those nude sandals Wintour has worn since 2011? Yep, they are by Manolo Blahnik, of course. So if you're looking for your next shoe investment, you might want to consider following Wintour's lead. Scroll down to watch Anna Wintour in the trailer for the Manolo Blahnik documentary, and keep reading to shop our picks.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
