Kitten Heels Reign Supreme: Celebs And Designers Embrace The Classic Comeback
Dior, Gucci, and Prada Revive The Iconic Kitten Heel for SS24
The SS24 runway season was bursting with various shoes from platforms to mules. One has been appointed the shoe of the summer – the kitten heel.
The Kitten Heel: A Classic Returns
Introduced in the 1950s and popularized by Audrey Hepburn in the 1960s, the kitten heel is a staple shoe that has popped in and out of fashion for decades.
Dior, Gucci, and Prada were among the fashion houses showcasing micro-heels as part of their collections.
Y2K Revival and Comfort
The YK2 revival that has been present since the early 2020s could be playing a large part in why kitten heels have made a comeback. Or the consensus could be that we have grown tired of uber-high platforms and are craving a small, easier-to-walk-in shoe.
Whatever the reason, celebs are on board with the shoe of the moment. Hailey Bieber added a pair of sleek black kitten heels to her maternity wardrobe as she arrived at Nobu wearing jeans and a leather jacket.
On the Streets of New York
While in New York to promote Twisters, Daisy Edgar-Jones wore a pair with a boho twist – the Judith Clog from Chemena Kamali’s debut Chloé collection. She paired them with a ruffled minidress (also from Chloé), a belly-button-length gold pendant, and an oversized leather bag.
With each new season, it is becoming more evident that the fashion world craves a more diverse shoe selection.
