Amina Muaddi has become the go-to luxury heel designer for celebrities and influencers. The Begum crystal-encrusted pump and Giorgia mule are the rep market's primary focus — crystal-embellished luxury heels that photograph beautifully and have strong batch options in 2026.
Last updated April 2026
“Begum crystal pump batch is the 2026 standout — crystal placement is accurate and the clear lucite heel is correctly proportioned. Giorgia mule is the flat alternative with excellent batch quality. Size up 0.5 EU.”

The Begum features a clear lucite (acrylic) heel that is distinctive and difficult to fake badly — the clarity of the acrylic and the crystal embellishment on the upper both need to be right. In QC photos, the lucite heel should be genuinely clear, not milky or yellowed, and the crystals on the upper should be evenly set with consistent size. Current batch: clear heel, well-set crystals, accurate proportions. Size up 0.5 EU.
The Giorgia mule is Amina Muaddi's flat option — a clean slide with the brand's signature crystal bow embellishment. Simpler construction than the heeled styles and very consistent batch quality. True to EU size. Compare with Aquazzura reps and see all luxury reps here.

Amina Muaddi is the most searched luxury heel brand among younger buyers in 2026. The designer's signature is transparent crystal-embellished perspex heels with structured pumps and mules. The Begum crystal mule is the hero style — a mule with crystal-encrusted strap and perspex kitten heel. The critical checkpoints are crystal placement density, perspex clarity, and strap construction. Current batch from our Yupoo catalog scores 92 on crystal accuracy — the density is correct and the perspex is clear rather than cloudy. Size up 0.5 EU for all mule and pump styles.
The Holli Glass pump features a fully transparent perspex upper — a more technically demanding rep because any material inconsistency in the perspex is immediately visible. The current batch manages this well. The Robyn strappy sandal is the more accessible option: regular leather construction with crystal accents, simpler QC requirements, and very consistent batch quality.
Amina Muaddi reps work best as occasion shoes — the crystal embellishments and perspex heels read most effectively at events where you want to be noticed. This is a deliberate purchase decision, not an everyday shoe choice. At $62-$82 for the current rep batch compared to $850+ retail, the value for an occasion shoe purchase is very strong.

The Begum crystal mule features approximately 400 to 500 individual crystals on the strap depending on the colourway. In the retail version, each crystal is hand-applied. In the rep version, the crystals are applied in a moulded format that achieves the same visual density. From a distance of more than half a metre — which is where shoes are evaluated in normal wear — the two are indistinguishable. Up close, the individual crystal attachment method differs. Whether that matters depends on the buyer.
The brand was founded in 2018 by Palestinian-Jordanian designer Amina Muaddi and achieved explosive recognition in 2020-2021. Retail prices are $700-$1,100 for the mule and pump styles. The rep market responds to that gap with batches at $62-$82. Browse the Yupoo catalog and order via WhatsApp. Use the size guide for EU conversion and the order builder for a complete order message.

Crystal embellishment on luxury shoes has been a growing trend since 2020 and Amina Muaddi has been at the centre of it. The brand has dressed celebrities at major award ceremonies globally and achieved the kind of cultural presence that makes the rep market response entirely natural. For buyers who want luxury occasion shoes with genuine cultural currency, the current batch delivers. The Begum mule and Holli pump are both in stock. Use the size guide for conversion — all heeled Amina Muaddi styles size up 0.5 EU. See all luxury rep shoes and the full 47-brand catalog.
The rep market for luxury crystal shoes has matured significantly. Batches that failed two years ago on crystal density and perspex clarity now achieve strong accuracy. The Begum mule is the best example of this improvement. Order now via WhatsApp.
