Miu Miu’s spring/summer 2024 show, created by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, introduced boat shoes as a high-fashion staple, and IT-Girls haven't looked back since. While originally tagged as the 'dad shoe', this chic new footwear has undergone some well-deserved revamp to turn into the hottest accessory of the year.
2024 has seen a plethora of exciting shoe trends. While Alaia brought back the all-too-famous ballet flats, Chloé is currently riding high in the success of their platforms. To top it off, sneakers are fusing athleisure with couture, with the latest collabs flying off shelves like hotcakes. Not to forget all the 'ugly shoe' trends aka Balenciaga's Pantaboots, mesh shoes and jelly sandals that had the internet gagging.
In the midst of it all, boat shoes have been sneakily and steadily staking their claim!
Historically associated with Sloane Rangers and yacht culture, boat shoes have undergone a significant transformation this year, especially following their fame in Miu Miu's latest collection. The designer highlighted these shoes alongside preppy looks, including polo shirts, mini skirts and vintage-inspired glasses. Fashion giants, including Bally and Fendi have also showcased boat shoes in their recent collections, proving once and for all that isn't just a passing phase anymore.
From Zendaya to Bella Hadid, pretty girls have been spotted rocking the trend, shifting the perception of boat shoes from a stereotypical “Dad” item to a must-have in contemporary wardrobes. With their practical soles and durable materials, boat shoes are well-suited for extended wear into the fall season, making them quite a comfortable choice.
So, are boat shoes genuinely making a comeback, or is this simply a result of designer endorsements? For now, we are better off believing that these shoes are just iconic pieces that remain relevant regardless of changing trends.
