As we transfer in direction of the beginning of spring, I’ve began to choose my ears for any clues in regards to the subsequent It-shoe. After Alaia’s mesh flats took me without warning final yr, I have been on the lookout for hints sooner than common about which designer slipper may dominate this time round.
Now, impulsively, I feel I’ve cracked it. Slowly amassing loads of buzz, Gucci’s Horsebit Ballet Flats (£780) have the entire hallmarks of changing into the season’s favorite shoe. How can I inform? Properly, Alexa Chung has simply put her stamp of approval on the new-season shoe, and usually that is a superb indicator.
Choosing a mode in clean, black leather-based with three-strap detailing, Chung styled hers in her usually stylish and seemingly easy method—with darkish wash denims, burgundy socks and a comfy black knit.
Past having Chung’s backing, I’ve additionally noticed actor Daisy Edger Jones model the ballooning pattern in latest weeks.
