The 1990s called, they want their shoes back. The era may have seen a plethora of questionable style moments, but the one area in which the decade excelled was footwear. More than 20 years after the age of the millennium took over, fashion designers are still putting a modern spin on various shoe styles that wouldn't have looked out of place when the Spice Girls were still together.
Parisian ready-to-wear label Coperni is all about the thong platforms, whereas New Balance, Axel Arigato and Asics are heading up the chunky dad sneakers – defined by thick soles and laces. Not convinced? Perhaps the supermodel seal of approval can persuade you – the retro trend is a strong footwear favourite of the likes of Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid.
