More than 10 ballet flats to step into spring, socks included: the unexpected trend for between seasons
Under the name Gravina, designer Jorge Redondo has created his first collection of ballet flats for Martinelli, the brand he has collaborated with for years. Among the designs is this butter-yellow style, elegant in its simplicity and featuring a delicate bow at the toe as its only detail
It all started with Miu Miu's Fall/Winter 2022 collection, when the brand that best knows how to viralize trends in the TikTok era sent several ballet flats down the runway paired with socks. That design was linked to the so-called balletcore aesthetic, but several years later, ballet flats have gone from being a micro-trend to becoming the footwear of the moment, especially for spring. This season, wearing this flat shoe with socks has become the ultimate trend statement for updating even the most basic look in seconds. From Hailey Bieber to Katie Holmes and The White Lotus actress Aimee Lou Wood, many celebrities have embraced this trend, perfect for debuting in spring when you're tired of ankle boots but it's not quite sandal season yet
