As a city, Milan exudes an air of effortless elegance unlike any other, and Milan Fashion Week was an extension of that stylish, uncomplicated vibe that left us wanting more. While there, aside from attending inspiring presentations, we took the opportunity to visit MICAM, the leading international footwear trade fair, and WHITE, an international showcase dedicated to all-around ready-to-wear collections. One of the key highlights was meeting the Founders of both established and emerging footwear brands who are beyond inspiring and storytellers through their designs. These creators have their fingers on the pulse of what’s trending, designing shoes for the women of today while placing an emphasis on sustainability, craftsmanship and innovation.
In terms of footwear trends, statement heels with comfort in mind, colorful ballerinas, sleek loafers, chic slippers, classic Mary Janes and statement sneakers are making a splash. (Above photos: Brioni, Parisy / Below photos: Lolo Ballerina, Felipe Fiallo)
