I scream, you scream, The Mountain Goats Jul 26 2024 Agora Theatre in Cleveland OH Poster Shirt we all scream for flat shoes! Whilst I won’t go as far as to say that heels are redundant this season, the spring/summer runways felt like a collective celebration of flats. Where slip dresses might have been styled with strappy sandals, we saw brogues tag in. Ballet flats have ruled the footwear roost for the last 365 days and their appeal is showing no signs of waning, as evidenced by Prada, Chanel and Fendi. Having spent the first few years of my career teetering around London in constricting and crippling heels just because they felt “fashion”, the way designers have adopted the flat is more profound than it might otherwise seem. “Fashion’s obsession with ballet flats and mary janes is set to continue well into the new year, but for S/S 24, luxury brands are kicking things up a notch,” says Lyst’s content editor Morgane Speed. From Loewe’s crystal-encrusted version to Fendi and The Attico’s jewellery-like detailing, these are more than just shoes; they’re works of art.”. “Flat shoes continue to dominate, especially in sheer mary jane and ballet styles—+110% vs. last year,” continues Liane Wiggins, head of womenswear at Matches. “Mesh is still the must-have fabric of the summer, with brands such as Khaite, Le Monde Beryl and Emme Parsons leading the demand. We predict The Row’s unexpected take on the trend with its runway jelly shoe will be a cult item this summer.”. “If ever there’s a moment for comfort, you can be sure to count me in,” adds Rebecca Rhys-Evans, Who What Wear UK branded content editor. “And of all the comfort-inducing trends, flat footwear is the one that I’m most up for. Y2K and the “indie sleaze” renaissance have reignited our love of ballet flats in all their forms, and rest assured they’re not going anywhere for S/S 24. Pastel or Prada, embellished or adorned with bows, when it comes to our shoes we’re embracing new heights this season, and boy are our heels happy about it.”

Grab your exfoliating mitt and fake tan—shorts season is upon us and the stakes are high! “Last year, The Mountain Goats Jul 26 2024 Agora Theatre in Cleveland OH Poster Shirt underwear became outerwear and our minis shrunk to micro size, so it comes as no surprise that shorts have joined the party, making a bold comeback on the catwalks,” says Wheatland-Clinch. “What I think is most exciting—apart from the prospect of showing a bit more leg, a bit more often— is that as well as the usual summer line-up of linens and crochets, the likes of Tom Ford and Gucci have hiked up hemlines with a touch of tailoring, embracing suit styles and bringing belts back into the equation. Now, this leggy trend has far more potential to become a transitional staple, as opposed to one that will be forever bound only to our summer wardrobes.”. “If 2022 was the year of the micro skirt, 2024 will be the year of the micro short,” confirms Speed. “As fashion continues to take inspiration from Y2K trends, brands like Fendi and AZ Factory have been ushering us into a new era of shorts; an ever so slightly more modest take on 2023’s hot pants obsession.”
