Back to fanciful flats: After several seasons on top, the ballet flat maintains its position as the trendiest shoe to sport (and shop!) Of course, pairs in classic black are to be expected, but glimmering styles in gold and silver shine the brightest of them all. Below, find bow-embellished pairs from Manolo Blahnik and Repetto to Maison Margiela’s Tabi flats in crinkled silver. Like the ballet flat, Mary Janes have also gone from girly to cool-girl. With a cult-like following, metallic must-haves include sweet strappy styles from Aeyde and Le Monde Beryl to Loeffler Randall and Miu Miu. Editor’s note: Le Monde Beryl’s outstanding silver offering comes in minimal mesh, another top trending item we can’t get enough of this season. Then, for added dimension, heeled Mary Janes takes the trend to another level entirely, with pairs reigning from Mango and Emme Parsons to Bottega Veneta and Zara.
Preppy Penny loafers are also taking part in the metallic movement—think sleek smoking styles from Malone Souliers, Tory Burch, and Tod’s to chunkier offerings from J.Crew, Reformation, and Prada. And because we couldn’t just stop at fashion flats, find dainty kitten heels from Jimmy Choo and Miu Miu to a pair of knee-high riding boots from Khaite—all dripping in gold and silver, of course. This fall, the more metallic, the merrier. Below, 50+ pairs of metallic shoes that shine bright for the season ahead.
