8 key styles to buy now
From what we've seen in the S/S 2020 runway shows, next season will be a feast for shoe-lovers, and we're dreaming of the fabulous shoes we're going to wear in spring! To be honest, we can't wait - literally - so we'll buy them now and wear these beauties paired with tights while we wait for the sunny days ;)
We've pinpointed the eight main shoe-trends that we'll be wearing this spring, from bright-coloured to minimalist style, you'll want them all!
Bright knee-high boots
Paco Rabanne "flower-power" boots and Miu Miu laced-up boots, both from S/S2020 collections
Whether Victorian laced-up boots like these green patent Miu Miu or the Flower-Power style ones by Paco Rabanne, the knee-high boots are an explosion of colour. Miista, Gucci, Altuzzara and Marc Jacobs also presented boots in vibrant colours that look wonderful paired with frilly dresses or long Bermuda shorts, a trend we will see everywhere this year. By the way, check which type of shorts best suits you in the article Shorts: The Trend for All Body Types and Ages.

Tied straps
Off-White knot sandals, Burberry mules and J.W.Anderson flat sandals are all tied around the ankles in the S/S2020 collections
As the days get warmer, you'll want to wear heeled strappy sandals and espadrilles; make sure they have long laces to be tied around your ankles. The tied straps look exceptionally modern when worn with wide-legged trousers; wrap the laces over the pants to give them a new puffy silhouette, as we saw at JW Anderson and Isabel Marant. Valentino, Salvatore Ferragamo, Off-White and Burberry are among the fashion houses that created shoes with straps to adorn your ankles.

Altuzzara, Zimmermann, Oscar de la Renta and Proenza Schouler are some of the labels that presented this shoe trend during Fashion Week. By the way, this is an easy D.I.Y. approach to update your fav shoes; just add a metal chain anklet around your ankle and your footwear will become totally 2020-worthy!

Mode, Givenchy and Rejina Pyo, among others, presented beautiful sandals so that you can show off your perfect pedicure in spring.
