Cool Londoners and Parisians Have Revived the '90s Heel Trend That Elevates Simple Trousers and Dresses

Published 7 hours ago2 minute read

Maybe it's the diet of '90s TV shows that I grew up on, but there's something about style across that decade that feels incredibly cool to me. So, whenever I catch a whiff of a '90s trend making a comeback, I can't help but get excited, and this week, when I spotted a reemerging shoe trend on Bella Hadid, and then by coincidence, came across it multiple times during an evening Instagram scroll, I knew I was on to something special.

Having moved on from the simple court shoes that have been back in our rotation for seasons, this summer fashion people are looking towards the decades' most playful shoe—weaving the corset lace-up heels into their chicest summer looks.

Set on a sleek, pointed-toe pump, this design features delicate lacing that extends from the point of the shoe all the way up the vamp, ending in a dainty bow. Emulating the romantic structure of a vintage corset, this trend has a retro charm and playful edge that can entirely energise an outfit.

In the form of a tall heel, this lace-up detailing imparts a directional element to your styling. Wearing well with simple jeans, I've also seen this trend styled chicly with tailored trousers and sleek dresses for a playful yet polished finish.

Just this week, model Bella Hadid stepped out in London sporting the trend with a long white dress and a tonal trench coat. With a penchant for a '90s accessory, I wasn't surprised to see Hadid sporting these throw-back shoes. Layering them with a form-fitting dress and a billowy coat, Hadid's Jimmy Choo Scarlett 50 Heels (£795) wove a playful essence into her evening ensemble in a way no other heel trend could match.
