Marc Jacobs is bringing his towering shoe assortment a sparkly twist this fall.

For the new season, the designer has released an array of his signature Kiki boots — the platform-soled, buckle-strapped shoe that made waves upon its first introduction in his fall 2016 fashion show, worn by both Lady Gaga and Kendall Jenner. In the years since, the style has retained a cult following and returned in numerous colorways and upper heights in the 2020s — with the most recent featuring a smattering of allover crystals.

Indeed, the $695 Rhinestone Kiki style — as seen in Jacobs’ fall 2023 shoe assortment online — has retained its sky-high shape with rounded toes, 3-inch platform soles and thick, 6-inch block heels. For a burst of glamour, the jet-black style and its five thin upper straps are fully embellished with small silver crystals for a truly bejeweled finish.
