If you've spent more than five minutes browsingBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK's articles, then chances are you'll already know that flat shoes are where it's at this autumn, and we're not the only ones who think so. Whilst on a day of appointments, our Managing Director, Hannah Almassi took a turn through the wooden-clad halls of shopping emporium Liberty London, where the noticeable lack of high heels struck her.
This is something we're seeing on social media, too. Where going-out outfits used to centre around platforms or heeled mules, in their place is a slew of sleek flats. Worn with everything from suits to dresses and miniskirts to jeans, flat shoes have undergone a fashionable metamorphosis and are no longer selected out of mere practicality and comfort. Now, they're a fully-fledged style choice—one we can absolutely get on board with.
Between online and in-store offerings and Wholesale Replica Bag uploads on Instagram and TikTok, I can confirm that this is going to be a flat-shoe autumn, until the need for boots can no longer be postponed. So, I thought I'd assemble a handful of chic, autumn-appropriate flat-shoe outfits to show you just how stylish these trending footwear options can look. Have a scroll to see 5 elevated autumn flat-shoe outfits to try out.
