Spring/Summer 2024 Shoe Trends

Mary Janes, ballet flats, pointed-toe stilettos, sandals, flip-flops, tassels, and more... Explore the shoe trends that will fill our closets for the spring/summer season!

As we approach a brand new season, these days of the year offer us fresh options as we prepare for the new season. While the past fashion weeks have helped us prepare our shopping lists with striking pieces, we've also begun to see which trends will be embraced in the spring season on social media. Shoes, one of our greatest passions, remain vibrant, fun, and equally attention-grabbing this season.

While shoe trends rapidly change, Mary Janes, ballet flats, and pointed toes continue to maintain their popularity this season, with kitten heels starting to take their place in these classics, which we won't take off for a long time.

As we continue to see red and burgundy tones in shoes this season, signaling our growing weariness of rapidly changing micro-trends, just like every season, this season also introduces the modernized versions of pieces inspired by past trends onto the fashion scene. Platforms we've lifted for the past few seasons and even transparent shoes we've forgotten about make a comeback, while sandals and flip-flops become part of high fashion.

Here are the trendiest shoe options for the spring/summer season!

Kitten Heels

Kitten heels, providing both elegance and graceful comfort, are among the most preferred shoes for the spring 2024 season. Used in kitten heels, which continue their popularity in burgundy pointed stilettos, a trend at Gucci, embellished with pearls in gladiator sandals at Dior, and in loose boots, another trend of the season at Balenciaga, kitten heels with reinforced silhouettes will break the prejudice against short heels and become one of the trendiest pieces of the season.

Pointed-Toe Shoes

After particularly prominent appearances on the Miu Miu and YSL runways, pointed toes have once again become one of the most popular shoes of the season. With the entry of the "officecore" trend into our lives and the return of effortless "off-duty" looks from the 90s to popularity these days, pointed-toe stilettos are the key touch of every look. At the same time, pointed toes, which look quite sexy and assertive, are a reflection of feminine elegance.

Sock and Heel Combo

Fashion, perhaps one of the most enjoyable areas of limitless creativity and production. As each trend gives birth to a new one, blending trends and creating their entirely new and fun versions turns dressing into a means of self-expression, not just a functional action. The sock trend, which started with colorful socks, turns into a brand-new design, not only showing colorful accessories we confidently display from inside the shoes but also occasionally worn over the shoes. This trend, which is more about how shoes are worn than being a shoe trend itself, also shows that we don't always need new things to dress fashionably, even our way of wearing the pieces we already have can become a fashion statement.

Open-Toe Shoes

Open-toe shoes, the complete opposite of the pointed-toe trend, are a very sexy and assertive option for those who don't like pointed toes. Not surprising to see on recent runways where transparent, bold, and flashy looks are at their peak, open-toe shoes are attracting attention with their seasonality as well as their brand-new models.

In addition to classic open-toe sandals, we see toe-loop heels seen on Burberry runways, Victoria Beckham's open-toe sock boots, or Louis Vuitton's creative and interesting design with only one finger exposed, open-toe shoes combine classic and creativity.
