Move Over, Sneakers: Platform Shoes Are The Coolest Styles To Wear Now
Start clearing out space in your shoe cupboard.
By SOFIA KIM,
Kitten heels are back in vogue, but they're not the only shoe style that's becoming more prominent. On the Spring Summer 2017 runway, designers have also come up with a whole host of iterations for platform shoes, a style we're predicting will start popping up in your OOTDs.
Marc Jacobs went for sky-high platforms, while Alice + Olivia splashed floral embroidery on its soles.
At Salvatore Ferragamo and Proenza Schouler, platforms were given a more mannish appeal, with straps and chunky, blocky heels.
Fashion showgoers, too, have stepped out in the look. This pair of platform boots not only ensure that you look a few inches taller, but also give extra comfort thanks to their heavy soles.
For more wearable styles, opt for ones with less height and in eye-catching colours, like the orangey-red soles on this pair.
