From brunch dates to beach escapes— these are the staple shoe trends to walk you through summer in style

Step into the season with style and set the summer tone with the right pair of shoes to elevate your look. For S/S 25, footwear trends are all about the balance between comfort and statement designs—with fresh silhouettes, playful textures and pops of colour. From distinctly shaped heels to slides with a flair, this season’s edit brings together versatility and personality in equal measure. Whether you’re giving your wardrobe a full refresh or looking to add new pieces, these are the must-haves of the season.

Slip-on sandals

Effortless, versatile and made for the warm days— slide sandals are the ultimate easy-and-stylish essentials. Whether minimalistic, textured or in bold colours, they add the perfect summer polish to everything from beachwear to tailored trousers.

Shoes
Loewe Paula’s Ibiza Petal Anagram leather slides, AED 3,350
Prada Geometric jacquard sandals, AED 3,785
Dior Diorviera collection slides, AED 3,100

Retro sneakers

A throwback that never goes out of style, retro sneakers will bring a nostalgic cool factor to your look. Think 90’s shapes and offbeat colourways that pair well with dresses and denim.

Addidas x Wales Bonner Samba “Wonder Clay Royal Blue” sneakers, AED 892
Miu Miu Plume nappa leather and suede sneakers, AED 3,400
Dries Van Noten Leather-trimmed suede sneakers, AED 1,337

Peep-toe mules

Blending vintage charm with modern edge, peep-toe mules are the perfect in-betweens, offering easy elegance for days and nights. Pair them with wide-leg trousers or midi dresses, without the pain of sky-high heels.

Miu Miu Patent leather mules, AED 4,150
Jacquemus The Cubisto mules, AED 2450
Steve Madden Ringside Textured Peep-Toe Heeled Sandals, AED 399

Ballet flats

The classics are back with a twist— think square toes, edgy embellishments and elevated textures. They are comfortable yet polished, giving you the perfect contemporary balance between sweet and sophisticated this summer.

Gianvito Rossi Shanti embellished leather Mary Jane ballet flats, AED 3,985
Louis Vuitton x TM Romy Flat Ballerina Rainbow Tones, AED 9350

Slingback kitten heels

Chic and comfortable with endless versatility, slingback kitten heels are a timeless staple with a fresh 2025 update. The low heel offers just the right lift, while the delicate strap adds a touch of femininity. Perfect for both office hours and after-dark dressing, they’re the ultimate day-to-night shoe.

Prada Nylon slingback pumps, AED 4,570
Manholo Blahnik Carolyne 50 floral-print satin slingback pumps, AED 3,450
Jacquemus The low Cubisto slingbacks, AED 4,390

Mesh pumps

The biggest footwear trend of S/S25, mesh shoes are breathable, fresh, and feel ultra-modern. Whether in form of sporty flats or sweet ballerinas, these contemporary pairs add texture and intrigue without weighing you down in the heat.

Alaïa ballet flats, AED 3,286
Le Monde Beryl Mary Jane Ballerina Flats in Mesh, AED 2,000
