What are platform shoes?

Platform shoes have thick soles ranging from a few centimeters to several inches in height! These shoes are designed to be stylish and attention-grabbing, and make the perfect finishing piece for your alternative outfit! Platform shoes were popular in the 1970s and have had several resurgences since then.

What are popular platform shoe styles?

We have some of the most popular styles of platform shoes around! Our fave black platforms shoes have to be the CAMEL-103 Mary Jane platform shoes, which are super chunky and inspired by 70s platform shoes with an extra gothic touch! If you’re after a pair of white platform shoes, you can’t go better than the Shaker-52 white platforms! If you want platform sandals for summer, you can’t go wrong with the Wave-08 sandals. Dream of the health goth aesthetic? A chunky pair of Stomp-08 platform sneakers could be your dream shoes. Are you heading to a festival or just wanna look extra af? The sky-high Slay-77 platform shoes feature 7-inch platforms. If you’re after cute platform shoes to finish that kawaii outfit, we adore the pastel pink CAMEL-102 platform slides – the perfect pastel goth shoe! We also have Platform Heels including the TORMENT-51 boots featuring spiderwebs that glow under blacklight. We also have unisex and men’s platform shoes, such as the GRAVEDIGGER-250 unisex platforms.

How do I walk in platform shoes?

Just the same way you would when you walk in your regular shoes!  We recommend wearing them around the house to get used to the extra height, just walk heel to toe.  Just be careful when walking upstairs, you’ll need to compensate for the bigger sole. If you want to be tall but are a bit wary, we recommend trying out a pair of flatforms like the Damned-318 Knee High Boots or the Ashes-55 Ankle Boots.

Are platform shoes in style in 2023?

Here at Tragic Beautiful we believe in self expression – so whatever you want to wear is in style! The not-so-humble platform shoe, however, IS back in style – and we couldn’t be happier; icons like Wednesday Addams and her iconic Mary Janes and brands like Versace have made platform shoes much more popular.
