Over the years we have seen the return of several fashion trends. Mom jeans, chokers, low-rise pants, platform shoes and many more. But who knew the next big thing, especially for fall fashion would be ballet shoes? While the years 2022 and 2023 saw a surge in platform shoes and chunky sneakers, it seems like 2024 is all about delicate ballet shoes.
Although unexpected but the shift has been very gradual. It has been nestling its way into the mainstream over a couple of months now. And as the fall temperatures are now settling in – its time to embrace the big switch. Brands like Alaia and Miu Miu have proudly made it their poster product. Also, while a basic ballet flat remains as classic and regular as ever, you may still want to consider investing in a jazzed up pair.
Inspired by the footwear worn by ballerinas, ballet flats have always been a part of the fashion scene. While the popularity may come and go but they have started to appeal more and more celebs now. These fall IT shoes enjoyed massive attention in the early 2000s. However, they eventually faded from the forefront. But with the resurgence of Y2K trend, ballet shoes have for sure made a comeback and they are here to stay.
Many fashion icons, including Audrey Hepburn and Lady Diana, have seen donning these celeb-favs. Now, fashion IT-Girls Hailey Bieber, Taylor Swift were also spotted showcasing the ballet shoes. Bollywood actress Ananya Panday was also seen sporting them during the promotions of her recent film.
They are also a great choice for those who prefer comfort over fashion. You can consider it as a great investment because of its timelessness that never dates. Wear it for a year and then completely forget about them the next year but you will always go back to them, and that is for sure!
