Let’s go back dreaming about fashion, what should we prepare to see this spring? The catwalks of last September had already anticipated the accessories as the absolute trendsetters of our next spring looks … and intuition was never more correct! With the new aesthetic now shared, brought to fashion by Daniel Lee, new creative director of Bottega Veneta, the trends dig back in the fashion archives. The square-toe in particular, a great icon of the 80s, has returned to make the most expert fashion addicts fall in love. In fact, Bottega Veneta not only made the Pouch Bag aka the “dumpling bag” an object of desire, but also the now-iconic square-toe sandals.
Bottega Veneta is followed by many of the most popular brands: Balenciaga with square mules, but also Jil Sander and Dior. The square-toe, therefore, we have ascertained to be the quintessence of coolness, but which models will adopt it? ALL! Not only sandals in fact, but the success of the square-toe, unexpected even by the far-sighted Lee, this spring will hit Boots, Ballerinas and Pumps! Is it time to forget the iconic Louboutin or Casadei décolleté forever?
The square-toe will be the trendy touch in any everyday look: its versatility and that retro touch will be perfect for both formal and everyday occasions, softening but giving the touch of a real cool hunter to the most different outfits. We started looking for the coolest square-toe models of the moment and selected some of them from our favorite e-commerce. What do you think? HOT or OLD?
