When it comes to the top shoe silhouettes that It girls wear, it's flats, loafers, and sneakers that usually reign supreme in the fall. And while there are plenty of cool outfits featuring them this season, there's actually one shoe that's even more classic, chic, and timely that is already eclipsing the others. I'm talking about knee-high boots. They’ve been making the fashion rounds for seasons, but for fall 2025, they're becoming one of the only styles that matter.
Seriously. I haven’t been able to scroll through Instagram without spotting knee-high boots. And for good reason—they’re often the hero piece to the chicest fall looks thanks to their chic, statement-making nature. Basically, if you haven’t tested these shoes out yet, now is the time. With that in mind, I curated a range of outfit inspiration highlighting the freshest knee-high boot silhouettes. Keep scrolling and get a leg-up in the autumn styling department.
How Fashion People Are Wearing Knee-High Boots
