I’m a shopping pro and found a dupe for Valentino’s viral platform heels, they’re $1,060 cheaper
CHUNKY platform heels have been all the rage right now, worn by supermodels and fashion “It” girls alike this season.
Valentino has one of the most notable Bratz-like platforms, but they’re pricey. Luckily, fashion collector and stylist Meytal Algranti found an affordable dupe for them along with two other iconic heels.

“Educating my kids on the importance of saving!!” Meytal declared in her Instagram Reel caption.
“Your fashion mom wants you to save your money and still be fashionable, and that’s exactly what we’re gonna do,” she continued.
“Today, we’re doing another ‘buy this not that’ shoe edition and this is one of the best ones I’ve ever done,” Meytal claimed.
Out of three shoe dupes, she first started with the viral Valentino Garavani Tan-go Platform Pump in patent leather, which sell for $1,150.

“I absolutely love these,” Meytal said, but added: “But instead … get the Steve Madden’s if you don’t want to drop [$1,150] on a pair of shoes.”
“Steve Madden finally came out with a dupe for $150,” she revealed of the Skyrise Patent style available in five colors.
On the Steve Madden site, it shows that the style originally retailed for $130 and are currently on sale for $90, making this dupe $1,060 cheaper.
Comparing screenshots of the black and cream pairs from both brands, they looked identical from the patent leather to the shape to the heel height.

“I don’t really see a difference. Look at this, you guys. This is crazy!” Meytal said ecstatically.
Then, she moved onto the iconic Manolo Blahnik Hangisi Satin Jewel Buckle Pumps in pink.
These were perhaps made most well known by constantly being worn by Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City.
The elegant pointed heels with crystal embellishments sell for $1,125 excluding shipping or export fees.
“Buy these instead – the Badgley Mischka buckle pump,” Meytal said.
She showed the near identical Cher Crystal Buckle Pump shoe. They can be purchased from Bloomingdale’s or Neiman Marcus for $235.

For her last dupe, Meytal showed purple Elle translucent plexi heel by her favorite shoe designer Gianvito Rossi.
“If you don’t want to spend $700 or $800 on the Rossi’s, buy these instead by Kandee Shoes Official,” she suggested.
She shared a screenshot of blue Ocean Marine Patent Mules that sell for $222.
“They’re really sexy, really sleek and they look a lot like the Rossi’s,” Meytal said.
Her followers were just as excited about her shoe dupes and agreed with her stylish yet affordable suggestions.
“Yassss I got the Steve Madden version because they are so similar to the Valentino’s. I’m glad they get the Fashion Mom stamp of approval!,” one person commented.
