Emilie Chain-Strap Faux-Leather Platform sandals

Stella McCartney's black sandals rest on a sustainably sourced wooden midsole and split rubber platform sole that are characteristic of the namesake Emilie shoe line. They're made in Italy from signature faux nappa leather – a statement of the British designer's vegan design ethos – and decorated with a gold curb chain on the ankle strap, which fastens at the back with a practical zip.

• Faux nappa leather

Stella is a girl’s girl, visible in designs that embrace femininity from a variety of different and subtle angles. One of the first conspicuously fur- and leather-free brands, Stella McCartney sets design and animal welfare on an equal footing, with unshakeable standards for both.
