But beware, this autumn-winter, classic shoes are by no means basic.
Ballerinas: Elegance and Versatility
Whether classic, less conventional, bow-tied, fishnet or Mary Jane style, ballerinas are making a comeback in our lives to remind us of their versatility and status as a trend. They can be interpreted in many different ways, but one stands out above the rest: satin ballerinas. In black (ideal for expanding your look options), powder pink or white, they are a real treasure to add a sweet touch to your look but with a lot of personality.
Tabi is a safe choice in the world of ballerinas, although we will also see this type of shoe in the form of a boot or Mary Jane. These shoes have a peculiarity inspired by traditional Japanese footwear, separating the toes through a slit. Although it may seem novel and eccentric, tabi have been an object of desire in the fashion world for decades, thanks to Martin Margiela, who made them a distinctive feature of his brand. Contrary to appearances, those who have tried them assure that they are very comfortable. Today, style prescribers such as Maria Bernad, Reese Blutsein or Lydia Pang, together with indisputable style icons such as Chloë Sevigny, wear them with pride. In addition, pop stars such as Dua Lipa or Rosalía have contributed to their popularization.
Classic Sneakers: Timeless Style
After experiencing a wave of sports trends during the summer, especially football-related trends due to the women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, it is interesting to see how this trend persists after the summer. Style prescribers seek to bring this aesthetic to the timeless realm by selecting garments and pieces with a vintage touch.
A classic palette, fond of contrasts (black and white, fuchsia and yellow, beige and burgundy, green and white). Although leather could be the main material, suede stands out.
Electrifying Yellow Sneakers: Stand Out with Color
If there's one colour that's been shining in sneakers over the past few months, it's undoubtedly yellow. Influencers are pairing their yellow sneakers in different shades with a variety of looks, from floral dresses to more everyday, work-friendly options.
Different Court Shoes: Creativity in Every Step
Putting together looks involves play and creativity. The appeal this fall and winter will be how we take party shoes out of their original context. There are no limits to mixing metallic finishes, ballerina flats with heels or kitten heels with unusual everyday looks. The fall-winter 2023/2024 collection, where kitten heels were the protagonists, set the trend. These low heels are presented as a sensible option to achieve a look full of personality both on important occasions and on everyday days.
School Shoes: Elegance and Versatility Continued
This trend is here to stay, and it's no wonder given its versatility. Whether in the form of loafers, Mary Jane style or lace-ups, the collegiate style made a strong impact last fall and remains a favorite choice. Because of their discretion and functionality, it's hard to get tired of them, making them the perfect detail to close any look.
In this roundup of the footwear trends for autumn-winter 2023-2024, we explore the re-emergence of classics such as ballerinas and bold tabi, as well as the timelessness of classic trainers.
