Greek sandals Laurel

The Laurel Greek sandals are gold-coloured women's sandals with long braided cords and small gold leaves, which you tie criss-cross around your lower leg.

You wrap the cords up from the ankle to just below the knee, where the ends with a leaf hang loose along your calf. They are designed for women and turn a white toga or a short white dress into a Greek goddess look for a themed party.

What distinguishes Greek sandals from rugged Roman sandals?

Laurel Greek sandals stand out with thin braided cords with leaves instead of wide straps, making them look graceful and light on the leg. Roman sandals for a soldier or gladiator look usually have wide straps and a more rugged appearance. The leaf motif refers to the laurel wreath, which in ancient Greece was considered a sign of honour and victory. Choose this model if you want to portray a goddess or nymph, and sandals with wide straps if you are going for a warrior look.

Creating a goddess look around gold sandals

Gold sandals go best with a white toga or a white dress that ends above the knee, so that the cords around your calf remain visible. Repeat the gold in a laurel wreath or gold headband and in a gold-coloured border or belt around your waist. A gold bracelet on your upper arm or a stole over one shoulder gives the Greek outfit extra character. Keep the rest of the look white and gold, so that the leaves on your legs remain the striking detail.

Order the Laurel Greek sandals and walk into the room like a goddess at your next Greek-themed party.
