"Every season I explore and aim to achieve the perfect shape and cut for my court shoe. I first designed the ‘BB’, which is named after Brigitte Bardot, one of my greatest inspirations, in 2008 and it became a classic. It’s a good shoe for every occasion"

These Manolo Blahnik BB 105 red suede shoes were seen on actress Nikki Reed at the SunCafe in Studio City, California on September 10, 2014.

Fashion designer and global icon Victoria Beckham is a well known fan of Manolo Blahnik's BB pumps. Victoria tweeted a picture of her BB 105 red suede pumps.


The pencil thin heel and pointed toe makes these one of the classic high heel pumps of all time, as well as being Mr.Blahnik all-time best selling shoes. These shoes will make any outfit classy and sophisticated. I feel they work well with a casual outfit for hitting up the shopping malls.

I have recommended pairing them with a tie-front tomato red cotton-jersey top by Splendid, a pair of 'Harvey' black zip-detailed skinny jeans by McQ Alexander McQueen and finally a 'Love' small black quilted leather shoulder bag by Saint Laurent. The retail price for these high heels were £450 GBP.

The 100mm heel is a perfect height for the day in professional work environments, as the heels thickness provides great stability.
