Mules and milky shades: Stylist names main shoe trends for spring 2025

Shoes in light colors

White remains the favorite color of the season, actively present in the collections of famous brands. That's why white or milk-colored shoes are one of the trends for 2025.

"Such shoes will definitely add accents to spring looks and visually lighten them. It's up to you to decide whether to wear heels or not," the stylist emphasized. She also advises to pay attention to high-heeled shoes and comfortable loafers.

White and milky shoes look harmonious with neutral shades of clothing, as well as bright accents, creating a balance in the image.

Retro style sneakers

Retro sneakers inspired by the designs of the 70s and 80s continue to gain popularity in 2025. Such models can combine elements of vintage design and modern technology, providing comfort and style.

"Retro sneakers will bring a touch of vintage, but at the same time keep you comfortable. You can choose leather or suede, a basic color or an accent color, or even a print," the stylist emphasized.

Topsiders

Topsiders are a special type of shoe, originally designed for yachting, which over time has gained popularity in everyday life due to its comfort and style.

In 1935, Paul Sperry, a sailor and founder of the Sperry Top-Sider company, created the first model of topsiders. He was inspired by the sole pattern of his Cocker Spaniel, noticing how his paws provided traction. This observation led to the development of a unique grooved outsole that provided excellent traction on wet decks without leaving marks.

"Topsiders, like loafers, are in the trends of spring 2025. And they will confidently occupy the shelves of almost all showrooms. This is a fairly comfortable type of shoe for a dynamic lifestyle," the stylist emphasized.

Laconic mules

Mules are backless shoes that combine comfort and elegance. In 2025, mules are becoming one of the main trends, offering a variety of models for any occasion.

Popular models of mules in 2025 include loafer mules (combine elements of classic loafers and mules, providing a stylish and comfortable option for everyday wear), heeled mules (add a touch of zest to evening looks and look great with dresses and trousers), ballet mules (provide maximum comfort and are suitable for long walks).

"Comfortable mules with or without heels will perfectly fit into more sophisticated urban looks on warm spring days. I would advise wearing these even with socks," the stylist noted.
