A question for the fashion girlies: what’s your top priority when putting together your outfit for the day? If your answer is comfort, you should be paying attention to these homegrown fashion brands. For the 9 to 5 office baddies who love their heels, but hate the end-of-day aches and cramps, these five brands make footwear that are built to provide comfort — without skimping on style.
The Divine Label
Trendy, girly, and built for inclusivity. If you’re a fashion girlie who struggles with finding shoes that fit, this is the brand for you. Divine Labels has a size-inclusive range, starting from size EU 34 to EU 45 (for context, most shoe brands only stock to up to EU 40 for women’s sizes). Other than its impressive size range, their shoes are also wide feet friendly — so no pinching or tight squeezes while walking. The best part: its designs are ultra trend. From mega-sized floral motifs, to chic burgundy pumps, their shoes are perfect for styling up your office wear.
Charles & Keith
The local fashion girlies would know all about Charles & Keith and its edgy-meets-sophisticated style; from iconic fashion collabs, to its cult favourite shoulder bags. Its shoes have been spotted on the likes of Wednesday actress, Jenna Ortega, and Katseye’s Manon. For the girlies looking for a pair that’s elevated, yet functional and office-appropriate, Charles & Keith has perfected the art of toeing this line.
Tippies
Did you know that this TikTok-viral shoe brand is based in Singapore? Just a year ago, Tippes was started by two office girlies in their twenties who saw a gap in the fashion market: comfortable and durable heels. With thousands of views on TikTok and plenty of social media hype and reviews, it seems like Tippies has achieved their goal. Their style is chic and elegant, perfect for office girlies looking for stylish work shoes that will carry them throughout a gruelling day at their 9 to 5.
Pedro
If what you’re looking for is something that toes the line of androgynous styling, Pedro is the way to go. The brand is all about clean silhouettes, heeled loafers, and plenty of leather and suede — it’s perfect the office girlies looking for something dressy and classic.
DMK
Did you know that DMK was first founded in 2000? After several TikTok videos made its rounds, Singapore-based fashion girlies have rediscovered this simple yet elegant fashion label. While the brand also stocks bags, cute and comfy shoes are its bread and butter. Bonus points to DMK’s designs, as their shoes are also wide feet friendly.
