Sparkling embellishment was all the rage at Blumarine. Creative director Nicola Brognano went big on the Y2K mood as models, who were body glittered up to the max, wore shoes with butterfly motifs fluttering at the toes. At Alexander McQueen and Tom Ford the glitz and glamour continued, while Miu Miu, Giambattista Valli, Fendi, Courrèges and Alaïa offered up myriad party shoes for all dancing needs. 

Fashionable gladiators were a theme at Louis Vuitton, Valentino, Paco Rabanne and Dior, but no amount of criss-crossing lace-ups could compete with the platforms that prevailed on the runways. Daniel Roseberry presented striped, stacked soles at Schiaparelli; Chanel added extra volume to its monogrammed double C heels; Donatella Versace did towering mules; and at Bottega Veneta, bright green curvaceous combat boots came seriously pumped up. 

There were lots of new boots shapes to choose from. Daring thigh-highs seen at Givenchy and Balenciaga have already taken Kim Kardashian’s fancy, while Jil Sander, Marine Serre and Peter Do championed the classic point-toe boot that’s always a great investment.

Here, the standout shoe trends seen at the spring/summer 2022 shows.
