Whether ladylike or edgy, sky-high stilettos or demure ballet flats, the shoe trends for fall 2023 find grounding in the building blocks of your wardrobe. Much like the fashion trends that filled the runways for autumn, the fall shoes that are gaining steam are chic, polished workhorses that will effortlessly take you from day to night with little fuss and a whole lot of style.
The fall season brings with it bold pops of color by way of sophisticated fiery red, gaining momentum after last year's Barbiecore pink hype. Designers like Stella McCartney and Prada embraced the color with vibrant red fall shoes storming the runway. If color isn't really your thing, look no further than the black pumps spotted on the runways at Saint Laurent, Schiaparelli, and more. Flats also enjoyed their moment in the sun, with Prada and Tory Burch showing sophisticated, now-viral designs style enthusiasts can't wait to add to their repertoire. And fall shoe trends got a youthful update by way of Mary Jane shoes, in heels and flats, from brands like Emilia Wickstead and Rodarte. But edgier dressers were top of mind as well, with combat boots popping up at such fashion houses as Gucci, Fendi, and Jil Sander.
