I’m going to black tie wedding next month, and my date is exactly the same height as me. The gown I have is a gorgeous long red evening dress. What sandals or flats would you recommend?

Q: I’m going to black tie evening wedding next month, and my date is exactly the same height as me. The gown I have is a gorgeous long red evening dress with a cutout and an accent strap and big slit. Normally, I would wear heels, but I don’t want to tower over my date. What sandals or flats would you recommend? Arielle B. New York, Ny.

A: Wow! Your dress sounds stunning and only a shoe just as glamorous will do. You are right to think a flat or sandal, but a heel can work as well. A three inch heel will not have you towering over your date, but may help you feel more confident in your dress. What ever your choice, the shoe style must feel as special as your dress, so I partnered with the shoe brand Aldo, to answer your question using their latest Fall styles.
