Story & heritage
Begum is the Amina Muaddi line that most directly frames the house language: a pointed slingback, a crystal starburst buckle, and the sculptural heel that made the brand instantly recognizable. The official Icons collection carries Begum Glass Sling 95 in transparent PVC, placing the style inside the brand’s own icon edit.
The wider brand story starts with Amina Muaddi’s eponymous label, launched in 2018 after she had studied the footwear trade around Italy’s Riviera del Brenta. That background keeps the glamour anchored in shoe-making rather than ornament alone.
Materials & craft
The official product description grounds the construction: a 95 mm Signature Plexi Heel, transparent PVC, starburst embellished buckles, a pointed toe, and Italian manufacture. The glass effect lets the buckle and heel architecture carry most of the visual weight.
How to choose & style
Choose this when the shoe should read like jewellery. It works best with hems that leave the ankle clear: cropped tailoring, satin slips, narrow evening trousers, or a simple black dress that lets the crystal buckle catch light.
