We’re in the midst of a comfort epidemic, and I am here for it. Fed up with the usual faff of high heels, the A-list have decided to switch things up and go low. Many of the girls we follow for style advice have been having a rather casual few weeks or so, stepping into sensible, bouncy, lovely flat shoes.
Natalie Portman has been seen in Nikes (also carrying a very nice new Dior bag), Gigi Hadid in Birkenstocks, Cate Blanchett in thick-soled white sneakers (they matched with her shocking pink trouser suit) and Emma Roberts in a range of cute summer dresses with different ballet pumps.
There are more names and outfits on this growing list of flat shoe lovers, and we don’t expect the trend to stop any time soon. (Why would it when brogues, ballet pumps and kicks can look just as chic as anything stacked and are immeasurably easier to wear on a day-to-day basis?) We’re glad celebs have caught up with the rest of us.
Whether in Paris or L.A., New York or London, there’s a general consensus that heels are fine and dandy for a special occasion, but if you want to get your to-do list done, you’ll probably need a decent pair of flats. Victoria Beckham once said she “can’t concentrate in flats,” but we can’t concentrate on anything else right now besides these chic, foot-friendly options.
Keep scrolling to see who is wearing them and shop the styles for yourself.
