I’ve been studying the trends that come and go in the fashion industry for years and I’ve noticed that the most notable shoe styles usually revolve around a bold heel look or platform sole. And when it comes to a more comfortable look, it’s more likely to be sneakers than anything else. However, the last two years have been dominated by flat shoes. (Let’s call it a flat shoe renaissance if you want.) With brands like Tory Burch and Prada releasing standout pairs, mixing fashion and function has never looked so stylish.
We’ve seen everything in 2023 from satin ballet flats to studded options, so I’ve taken it upon myself to round up the styles that I think will continue to be in high demand for 2024. Even if you’re not much of a shoe flat person (I know a few avid heel lovers), you will be inspired by the choices below. To my surprise, I found more worthy suitors than I ever imagined.
