Dolce & Gabbana Metallic leather platform sandal

What stands out about the Dolce & Gabbana Metallic leather platform sandal is how little it tries — the house lets the construction do the talking.

The Upper: 100% Lamb leather. Sole: Lamb leather build comes through in gold, UK 7.5, with a finish that holds up to close inspection.

Built to outlast a season or two, which is really the point of buying at this level.
