The Pretty Shoe Trend Celebs Can't Stop Wearing on the Red Carpet in 2025


Ready or not, it's award season—the time of year when keeping up with the red carpet is a full-time job. Well, it's basically my full-time job, so I'm here to report on a theme I've noticed already. Just one month into 2025, I'm already quite sure that the number one red carpet shoe trend is satin shoes, which is also one of the prettiest shoe trends of the coming season. The glowy, soft look of satin shoes is stunning in photos without taking away from the rest of the outfit, so it makes sense that celebrities have wholeheartedly embraced the trend. It also doesn't hurt that practically every shoe brand is churning out satin styles.
I've done my due diligence and compiled 2025 sightings of satin shoes on A-list It girls such as Zendaya and Ariana Grande. I have a hunch that there will be many more satin shoes on the red carpet in the near future, as award season isn't anywhere near over yet. Keep scrolling to see some of my favorite recent red carpet (and runway!) examples and shop the prettiest satin shoes on the market.
