Top 10 trends: # 3

# 3: The Wrapped Shoe
Grecian footwear has (finally) evolved past the gladiator, as Classical draping migrates down the leg. The new "it" shoe is wrapped, knotted and bound, conjuring images of Geishas and goddesses. You can work this trend in the daytime, in the form of city-friendly flats paired with billowy pants and statement eyewear, or at night, with dramatic platforms and a sparkly cocktail dress.

TO PULL IT OFF: the idea here is romantic, not bulky. Unless you have Elle MacPherson’s legs, keep the wrapping to minimum above the ankle.



Use colour make this look softer, like these two sandals from Burberry Prorsum...


...or harder, like this wedge from Givenchy.
