The Biggest Shoe Trends Of Fashion Month

As the runways wrap up across New York, London, Milan, and Paris, one thing is clear: this season’s footwear is making a statement. From rich, autumnal hues to bold textures and nostalgic silhouettes, the shoes seen on the catwalk are anything but ordinary. Whether you’re looking to refresh your wardrobe or invest in a trend-led pair, these are the must-have styles that will define 2025.

The Red Revival: Burgundy & Plum Shades Take Over

If there was one standout colour this season, it was red. Deep burgundy and rich plum tones were spotted on boots, loafers, and statement heels, adding a sophisticated yet daring edge to every look. Max Mara, Etro, and Marc Jacobs all embraced the power of red, pairing it with everything from classic tailoring to streetwear-inspired pieces.

Why it works: Burgundy and plum are the perfect transition shades, offering a more wearable take on bold red. They add warmth to neutral outfits and a touch of drama to eveningwear. Expect to see these hues everywhere.

Why not add some of our favourites to your collection? Opt for a clean pair of ballet pumps in the form of schuh’s Lyra Mary Jane’s in red, ready to add a pop of colour to any outfit. If more of a versatile everyday trainer is what you’re after, look no further than the PUMA Palermo’s in red, or check out something a little more retro-feeling, like the Nike Blazer Low 77 in burgundy.

If you’re looking for a more dressy style, how about the schuh Shae sling back in red? Or opt for the Steve Madden Saria-E in red, a classic Scandinavian style that’s perfect for the summer. Like those styles but want something in a deeper hue? Here’s the schuh Lotten Stud Ballerina in Burgundy.

For an everyday shoe that can take you from A to B in while staying on-trend, check out the schuh Lash Chunky Mary Jane in Burgundy.

Wild Side: Snakeskin Prints Slither Back

Animal prints always find their way back into fashion, but this season, snakeskin is dominating the shoe game. From knee-high boots in neutral python tones to striking heels in vibrant, coloured snakeskin, the print made a powerful statement on runways of Khaite, Jil Sander, Valentino, and Bottega Veneta to name a few. Paired with minimalist silhouettes or clashing prints, snakeskin footwear added an edge to every look.

How to style it: Go for knee-high snakeskin boots with a monochrome outfit for an elevated feel, or opt for pointed-toe pumps with denim for an effortless day-to-night look. Whether you prefer classic brown and beige or want to experiment with coloured snakeskin, this is the print to embrace.

Make a statement with the schuh Dottie Knee High boots, guaranteed to capture attention. Or opt for the Steve Madden Grand Ave Buckle in snake print, perfect to add to any outfit to elevate it to an on-trend fit in no time.

Want a more everyday style? The schuh Blakley leather Chisel boots will level up any outfit. Need a more formal look? Meet the schuh Sylvia Point Court shoes which combine the snakeskin trend and the pointed heel trend – two for one!

Ring-Ready Revival: Boxing-Inspired & Retro Trainers Are In

Fashion took a sporty turn this season, with boxing-style and retro-inspired trainers making a major comeback. Seen on the runways at Dior and Stella McCartney, these trainers combine old-school athletic vibes with elevated, fashion-forward design. Think low-profile soles, panelled uppers, gum soles, and sleek silhouettes, reminiscent of vintage gym shoes.

Why you need them: These trainers are the perfect balance of comfort and edge. Pair them with wide-leg trousers and a blazer for a modern take on workwear, or wear them with cargos and a bomber for an off-duty, Y2K-inspired look. They’re easy to wear, subtly statement-making, and bring a fresh energy to your everyday wardrobe.

When it comes to boxing-inspired trainers, you can’t go wrong with the classics. The Converse All Star Hi are an OG for a reason and will elevate any outfit. For something a bit different, check out the PUMA Club II in Off-white.

If you’re looking for something that goes with everything, look no further than the VEJA Campo & the adidas VL Court 3.0.

From rich, bold hues to statement prints and nostalgic silhouettes, this season’s footwear trends are all about making an impact. Whether you’re drawn to the elegance of deep reds, the wild side of snakeskin, or the laid-back cool of wooden clogs, these trends are here to elevate your shoe game.
