Four materials do most of the work at a December party: velvet, satin, crystal and metallic leather. Each catches low light in its own way, and each works with a plain black dress. Here are heels and flats in all four, from \u00a3166 to \u00a3890, in stock now, with time to break them in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t

Manolo Blahnik’s Tulidor 70 pumps are black velvet, made in Italy, with a string of crystals along the top. They come up small, so check the size notes. \u00a3568.<\/p>\n

Gianvito Rossi’s 85 pumps are smooth velvet with a sheen, a point toe and an 85mm stiletto, \u00a3390. Aquazzura’s Shadow 85 contrasts velvet with satin, like a dinner jacket’s lapel, \u00a3775.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
