The ’90s and early aughts nostalgia, for one, is still a leading influence over our sartorial choices, with more and more long-forgotten trends having full-on renaissances. Mary Janes are back in a big way, reimagined in a variety of different styles and heights, while the slouchy boot has (finally) made a triumphant return. Carrying over from the first half of 2022, towering platforms are still very much en vogue, adding a few extra inches to everything from our dancing shoes to our everyday boots — and to the delight of the heel-averse, this includes wedges, too.
