Spring-Summer 2024 Shoe Trends
The fashion world is constantly evolving, and shoes are no exception. For the Spring/Summer 2024 season, we see a marked return to styles that are both comfortable and elegant, reflecting a more relaxed approach to women’s fashion.
Designers seem to favor clean lines and soft color palettes, while incorporating bold touches and innovative details. Natural materials, such as soft leather and linen, dominate the collections, offering both durability and refined aesthetics. Additionally, there is an emphasis on versatility, with shoes designed to suit a variety of situations, from casual outings to more formal events.
let’s zoom in on the models we will see everywhere this season!
–Heeled Mules
The shoes that made a notable appearance in the fashion shows of most major fashion houses announcing the trends for 2024 are heeled mules. Alexander McQueen presented a silver model on a stiletto heel, Bottega Veneta focused on gold mules with geometric heels while Burberry opted for leather flip-flops with a block heel. If you’re looking for shoes that fit into this season’s trends, heeled mules are what you need!
–Clogs
Popularized by certain brands such as Jonak, which has made them a real style object, the clogs are available in various colors and materials while displaying both sober and extravagant prints. Sometimes criticized, not to say hated, clogs are today experiencing significant growth both on Fashion Week parades and on social media platforms. On the feet of all your favorite it-girls, high heel and flat clogs are positioned as THE shoe to get for spring summer 2024.
–Slingback Pumps
Slingback pumps are popular! Very feminine and preppy, they elevate our spring looks without skimping on comfort, since they are often only a few centimeters higher. To be at the forefront this season, choose a model with pointed toes or square toes.
–Loafers
This season, very masculine shoes are popular. The right option to add to these gentlemen’s wardrobes: the loafers. Whether purchased directly from the men’s department or used as inspiration for a reworked shoe, it is the perfect closed shoe for summer.
–Ballet flats
The favorite shoes of the Parisian style lovers are once again all the rage in the fashion shows that announce the trends for spring and summer. The big fashion houses draw their inspiration from the trend that is breaking popularity records: #balletcore. They are also increasingly focusing their attention on the functional aspect of fashion. Indeed, ballet flats are among the most comfortable shoes of the season.
If you are a fan of ballet dancer looks, opt for satin models which go very well with light dresses. Do you prefer minimalist sets? Black ballet flats go wonderfully with suit pants and maxi skirts. If you want to choose the trendiest model from the fashion shows, opt for Mary Jane ballerinas with a strap at the height of the metatarsal. The Chanel, Versace and Loewe brands prove to us – if necessary – that ballerinas will be a major trend for spring and summer 2024.
–Babies and Mary Janes
Like clogs, babies and Mary Janes have made a notable comeback in recent seasons and will continue to be very popular this spring-summer. These retro shoes, a mix between ballerinas and pumps, have been on the rise since Nodaleto made them his trademark. We find something for all tastes and budgets: heels, flats, single straps or with several straps, patent, colored or neutral… There’s no question of missing out on this super feminine trend this season!
–The Velcro Sandal
Far from the hiking trails, the Velcro sandal, or “dad sandal”, wants to find a place in the city. In its classic version, it becomes the offbeat touch of the outfit. But brands are also trying to make it more glamorous using original materials and colors.
–Flip-Flops
Another returning trend in 2024 are flip flops. Mules with a strap between the toes have been present in the fashion shows since last year. This season, the big fashion houses are focusing on every possible version imaginable: in leather, metallic, with stiletto heels, with block heels or with lacing around the ankle. Fans of minimalism and fashion lovers from the 1990s and 2000s will fall for these models. Flip-flops could be seen in the collections of brands such as Miu Miu, Chanel, Burberry, Hermès or SRVC.
–Retro Sneakers
Sneakers obviously remain a must and, for this spring 2024, they are playing the nostalgia card. We opt for vintage-inspired sporty models that we match with all our summer outfits. From the Adidas Gazelle model to the more street look of the New Balance 1906, we’re falling for retro lines this season. But to really stand out on the asphalt, we try the pop and vibrant colors that are pimping out the presenters of the moment.
All in all, this spring-summer promises a diversity of choices and models of shoes, to satisfy all tastes! Ballerinas, babies, flat shoes, pointy shoes, barefoot sandals, platform sandals, flip-flops, mules, gladiators, loafers, skater sneakers, biker boots… The shoe trends perfectly combine elegance and captivating looks. Choose the one that will make you shine!
The trick to incorporating these trends into your wardrobe is finding the right balance between comfort and style. Finally, don’t forget the importance of accessories: a matching bag or minimalist jewelry can perfectly complete your look.
