Summer footwear was alive and well during Copenhagen Fashion Week this month. Fashion insiders, editors, buyers and more headed to Denmark to view spring ’25 collections from array of brands, and this season, their street style focused on minimalist footwear.
One major trend: flip flops and thong sandals.
Attendees were spotted arriving to shows in simple black flip flops as well as kitten heeled versions. They paired the thong style with suiting, maxi skirts and see-through dresses.
Another hot shoe were ballet flats — but with a twist. Many guests opted for double-strapped Mary Janes, instance, while others chose the classic silhouette in different patterns and materials, such as mesh.
Take a look.
