All the shoe trends that will follow us into 2026
A guide to the first star shoes of the new year.
As with every year, 2025 had its own star shoes. From cute ballerina flats to versatile loafers, there were many classic designs that accompanied us throughout the past year, and the question is which of them will follow us into 2026 for looks that stand out.
The answer lies in the SS26 catwalks, which indicate which shoes we will not be parting with at all in the coming months. Below, you will find a detailed review to welcome the new year from the forefront of trends.
Ballerinas
Refreshed and with new details, ballerinas remain a must-have trend.
Loafers with a twist
Loafers are a sure way to add elegance to any outfit. In 2026, they take on a distinctly Parisian air, as we saw on the Dior Spring/Summer 2026 runway.
Printed boots
Black boots may remain the most timeless choice, but bold variations—leopard, zebra, or even python—are gaining ground. In 2026, their striking statement look will be a must.
High heels
From the office to the most glamorous evening outings, high heels continue their upward trend. An ally of the most dynamic women, they never go out of fashion, and 2026 will be no exception.
Almond shoes
If you haven't done so yet, make room in your closets for almond-toe pumps. Their subtly rounded toe, low heel, and upper that slightly covers the instep promise to make them even more popular in 2026.
