Stay stylish this season with our expert guide to Spring/Summer 2017 shoe trends. As a fashion veteran who's tracked runway shows for years, I've rounded up the hottest styles to complement any outfit perfectly.
The ultimate boost for shorter frames: platform shoes, especially sandals with chunky soles. Pair them with socks for a bold twist—ideal eye-catchers that amp up summer looks effortlessly.
Prefer subtlety over sky-high stilettos? Kitten heels deliver just enough lift to accentuate your femininity. Spotted on runways with sandals and pumps, they're versatile for every occasion.
Contradictions define SS17: alongside kitten heels, ultra-slim stilettos reign supreme. Perfect for parties or all-day office wear if you're a pro at high heels.
Seeking stability with style? Opt for round block heels over chunky ones. Their feminine curve pairs beautifully with jeans or summer dresses.
Logo mania hits footwear: pumps with bold side lettering or heels etched with initials. Designers made their marks unmissable, echoing broader spring fashion vibes.
Polarizing yet pervasive: socks in sandals. Go bold or refined—wear with confidence to own this quirky trend.
Who says boots are winter-only? Ankle styles stay hot; layer with socks and cropped jeans for maximum impact.
A SS17 essential: fabric ties around the ankle on pumps or sandals. They add flair and that fashionista edge.
Shine bright with metallics—full shoes or accents in silver loafers, sneakers, or pumps. Designers unleashed creativity here.
Timeless and trendy: crisp white sneakers blend sporty comfort with chic outfits seamlessly.
Summertime calls for slides, runway-style. Fur pom-poms or beaded details keep feet fabulous.
Shoes steal the show: brogues with bows, feathered pumps, laced ankle boots, pom-poms, and star prints. Ditch plain—go statement.
The sandal-flip-flop hybrid: pointed slides in vibrant hues and details, evoking exotic elegance.
Pastels dominate, especially pink, with mint green, gray, and white as strong contenders.
