It’s not uncommon for Vogue editors to become completely transfixed by a fresh-off-the-runway shoe trend. This spring, it’s been a trifecta of Miu Miu’s driving loafer, Dries Van Noten’s retro sneakers, and those masterfully minimal ballet flats at Proenza Schouler. And now, as we step into summer, all eyes are on seriously sleek pairs of strappy heeled sandals, from Khaite and Jil Sander to Reformation and Zara. With an understated, ’90s-inspired feel, this shoe style is a true warm-weather wardrobe essential, effortlessly paired with everything from great white dresses and sheer skirts to relaxed pairs of jeans and even cargo pants.
