Flat shoes have taken over in a major way in the last several years. Ballerina styles—traditional, Mary Jane, rhinestone-embellished, mesh, and Alaïa's viral version—had a renaissance and continue to drop in new iterations and maintain high demand. Moving further into 2024, we're seeing an uptick in sophisticated style, and that is translating to footwear. While we don't expect to see ballerina shoes slowing down, elegant slingback flats are set to take over this summer and beyond.
Notable versions have been circulating on the market for years, including iconic designs from brands such as Chanel, Roger Vivier, and Saint Laurent. Those styles are resonating in an even bigger way and are selling out so fast they are almost impossible to track down in stores. Regardless of your budget, there are beautiful versions at every price point. Ahead, shop our edit of elegant slingback flats to add to your wardrobe.
