This Fresh Flat-Shoe Trend Is Dominating in London and New York Right Now
There was one unanimous winner amongst the trends showcased in the A/W 23 runway shows in February this year. Not a new style of coat or a reimagined silhouette—the season’s hottest trend is a classic colour that's back with a vengeance: fiery red. Setting the runways ablaze at Gucci, Valentino and Eudon Choi, some of our favourite designers set the scene for a season of passionate, rich and incandescent dressing.

When paired with other red pieces, red ballet flats bring a look to life with a vibrant, elevated effect that requires no extra effort. Equally as chic when styled with jeans and a tee, these shoes add a playful and polished edge in one go.
