Product Insights & Style Tips

The ALAÏA Platform Mule lands at the intersection of statement architecture and downtown insouciance. Rendered in rich black lambskin, this Italian-made mule lends a tactile opulence undercut by industrial silver-tone grommets—classic ALAÏA attitude filtering clean lines through a lens of subversive polish. The gleaming hardware punctuates the ultra-smooth leather, giving each step a little edge while keeping things quietly luxe. There’s a soft, almost plush feel to the upper, balanced by the grounding heft of a sculpted rubber sole, all lifted with a sky-high 125mm heel and an assertive 40mm platform.

Slip these on and you get that leg-lengthening, late-night energy with none of the teeter. The substantial platform offsets the bold heel, so the rise feels more wearable than it looks, while the mule shape skims the foot just right—open, elongating, and modern. The buttery leather lining manages to hug without squeezing, inviting you to wear them bare or with the slouchiest of socks. These carry all the right references for styling: their minimal lines sit comfortably under pooling pants or set off a micro-mini, and the open back means seamless transition from gallery floors to after-hours rooftops. They anchor the look without weighing it down.

True to ALAÏA’s codes, the platform mule nods to sculptural heritage and Parisian rebellion—a little tough, a lot refined. Think of them as the answer to this season’s appetite for a high-gloss statement shoe that holds its own against both denim and directional tailoring.

Recommended Care

Protect lambskin leather by avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight.
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove dust and maintain sheen.
Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple, avoiding contact with metal hardware.
Store mules in dust bags or a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces to prevent scratches on leather and grommets.

Butter Skin Is Easier To Achieve Than You Think

While pilates skin continues to dominate beauty feeds, not everyone is chasing a high-shine complexion. For those who gravitate toward something softer, butter skin is the alternative worth knowing about. The look still prioritizes deeply hydrated, healthy skin, but instead of a dewy, reflective finish, the goal is a buttery-soft complexion with diffused radiance. It’s essentially the summer iteration of the velvet skin trend from winter. That balance of refined yet luxurious without being overdone is exactly what makes it appealing for everyday wear, especially as temperatures climb and heavy makeup starts to feel like overkill. Achieving butter skin comes down to strategic layering, and the payoff is a complexion that reads as nourished and impossibly smooth.

GUESS Spring/Summer 2026 Campaign, Baroque Reverie and Key Pieces

The “A Baroque Reverie” campaign reimagines classic Americana with a late‑’90s sensibility. Photography by Eli Russell Linnetz and design direction by Nicolai Marciano combine crystal chandeliers, painted backdrops, and candlelit scenes to evoke a romantic yet edgy energy. The campaign emphasizes womenswear while presenting menswear with relaxed tailoring and leather shirts paired with ties. Ethereal fabrics like chiffon and satin mix with tougher textures, creating a layered, undone aesthetic. GUESS’s global campaign complements this with Chiara Ferragni as the face, appearing across digital and print platforms. This campaign ties brand heritage to contemporary femininity and showcases bold bags and signature denim alongside refined silhouettes.
