Carel Mary Janes Dupe

 

Carel Paris,

an unmistakably authentic and elegant Parisian brand is known for their casually sophisticated mary janes. Georges and Rosa Carel founded the brand in 1952 after moving to Paris and being inspired by the carefree, young nature of their neighborhood in close proximity to a university. The designer’s success was immediate and he won the hearts of Parisian women across the country. Carel was founded on “preventing women from walking sadly” by offering the world a more practical style of shoe compared to their competitors whom which were rolling out stilettos and pumps every season of the year. The couple made designs specific to Paris terrain (ie. cobblestone walkways) by using smaller heels. The brand found success in using timeless reto styles and mixing modern flares.

Unfortunately for most, these mary janes are costly and are a big splurge purchase. Here I will share all of my “dupe” findings in hopes to give the public more affordable options.
