Trust Me—This Shoe Color Could Surpass Black in Popularity in 2025
As we move into 2025, a shift toward bold, sophisticated, and distinctive color choices is on the horizon. One burgeoning color trend is burgundy, a rich, deep shade of red that marries luxury and versatility. The last three runway seasons saw record showings of the hue, starting with the spring/summer 2024 collections from brands such as Bottega Veneta, Gucci, and Ferragamo. Since then, the trend has trickled down to one category most impressively: footwear. Yep, burgundy is fast becoming fashion's favorite alternative to black when it comes to shoes, and celebs have been more than welcoming.
On Taylor Swift: Stella McCartney top; Tod's Di Bag ($3575); Prada boots
This season, we've already seen Taylor Swift ditch her signature lace-up black ankle boots for a pair of vintage burgundy Prada boots that she styled with an oversize rugby shirt worn as a dress. Katie Holmes is also a fan, wearing a pair of Le Monde Beryl flats in the luxe shade with a pink button-down shirt and jeans. Clearly, burgundy shoes are worth investing in. Ahead of the New Year, snag a pair from the selection below that's made up of the best options on the market.
On Katie Holmes: Le Monde Beryl Velveteen Mary Jane Flats ($530); Tom Ford Hayes 59MM Pilot Sunglasses ($336); Khaite Amelia Medium Leather Tote Bag ($2400); Leset Pointelle Slim Fit Tee ($78)
