The Ultra-Elegant Shoe Trend Fashion People Keep Using to Elevate Their Basic Jeans

Some fabrics just scream luxury. Velvet, leather and faux fur are a few that spring to mind, but my all-time favourite? It's always going to be satin.
With a more mellow price tag and a soft and supple finish, this elegant material is naturally inviting and always imparts the sophisticated energy I try to channel into my daily outfits. A sucker for a silky satin skirt and a lover of a classic satin blouse, recently, it's the supremely sophisticated satin shoe trend that has been catching my eye the most.
Whilst satin shoes feel new to the scene for 2024, many will have chosen these sheeny shoes for their wedding day. Once the reserve of brides, satin shoes have seen a huge uptick in popularity over the past year. No longer only available in light ivory shades, brands have come around to the elegant appeal of the satin slipper—producing them in a wide variety of shades and shapes that speak to the new season's mood.
A satin shoe will always work well with an elegant dress, but I'm most interested in denim pairings. Elevating the energy of your basic jeans, I've spotted so many denim-and-satin-shoe outfits that have made me crave my own pair this season, and I'm particularly inspired by an elegant outfit I spotted on Katie Holmes this week. The actor paired her red shoes with light-wash jeans, a wool blazer and a white tee. Not letting a little bit of rain stand in her way, Holmes wrapped her black scarf around her head and cautiously avoided puddles to keep her satin shoes dry and stain-free.
Sparking a major trend, Prada's satin mules became a huge talking point after they debuted in the brand's spring/summer 2024 collection in September last year. Following their release in early spring, the sleek mule shoes quickly became a fashion favourite, appearing on editors, influencers and celebrities across the warmer months. Appealing to the hugely popular kitten-heel trend and nodding to the square-toe silhouette that has blossomed this season, these chic shoes quickly became a sell-out style.
Unsurprisingly, many brands have been quick to produce their own satin shoes, and just in time for party season. I've seen plenty of bow-embellished styles join the market over the past few weeks, but, if you're after something a little more low-key, there are also lots of elegant black pairs that I've included in my edit below.
