It’s already time to think about what style we want to give in to next summer. Will we be hyper streetwear, rather bohemian or downright minimalist in 2023? Whatever our option, we will need to find the right seasonal shoes, which will match the chosen look. That’s good, Here looked into the question and among the avalanche of new products, selected five styles of great sandals to take everywhere with you next summer.
One thing is certain: summer 2023 will be rich in crazy soles!
1. The return of the Medusa in 2023
A big shoe trend has been spotted on the catwalks: transparent shoes. But unlike Cinderella’s glass pumps, these shoes are made from soft rubber and the Méduse brand is of course taking advantage of this to make a comeback. Gucci even appropriates the timeless style of these beach shoes that we will once again see walking around town. The must-have pair? A completely transparent model that can be combined with an impeccable pedicure. With a maxi shirt and shorts , it’s the casual chic beach look.
2. Spartan sandals remain the essential basic
They are perhaps the undisputed queens of sandals.Gladiator sandals , with their straps and their antique look, are definitely not going to stop wearing us this summer. The proof, Cachou broke down recently. Because they are just as stylish with a bohemian dress as with jeans, brands continue to reinvent them. This summer, the trend is towards tradition and authenticity. We keep the spirit of an ancient warrior with gladiator sandals with wide straps and studded details, like the Hecho model from Les Tropéziennes by M. Belarbi.
3. Wedge sandals crush everything in their path
Because we loved our platform boots and sneakers during the winter, we feel obliged to continue our momentum to stay just as hot. In spring, mules with heels and XXL platforms have a great role and even in summer we won’t be able to part with platforms. As a result, the coolest sandals of the season necessarily have a maxi sole, often flat or slightly arched, for maximum comfort. The fashionable models have thick, crossed straps, or on the contrary, fine laces which contrast with the maxi platform of the sole.
4. Wedge sandals are taking over the trend
There are different types of wedge soles. “ Wedges ” are one of these shoes with a full sole but whose platform displays a real arch. In 2023, wedge sandals are a clever mix between the strappy mules of the Y2K and the wedges of the 2010s . This results in slip-on sandals with sleek laces on the top of the foot and high, full soles underneath. From kitten heels to 12 centimeters, there are all heights.
5. The flip-flop is in all its states
Among the most fashionable sandals for summer 2023, the thong is certainly the one that stands out the most. Platform, quilted, with a high ankle boot, with heels… They were everywhere at Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2023. Since Jennifer Aniston’s wedge flip-flops came back into fashion , there are no limits for reinvent the famous “foot thong”.
