What are the on-trend loafers this season?

What type of loafers will you be wearing for this spring-summer 2024?

 

Inherited from the Native American craftsmanship of the 18th century, loafers have been a staple in every city for generations. Timeless and comfortable, these shoes not only follow trends but reinvent them.

 

While other footwear designs come and go, loafers continue to be synonymous with elegance. This spring-summer 2024 season, they stand out with six essential trends.

 

Loafers with heels

 

Giving a sleek look to any silhouette, these iconic shoes are more than just footwear. This season, designs include a creation by AMI and the Mostra by Bottega Veneta, which takes inspiration from the 1940s.

 

While Freelance opts for understated elegance with its tortoiseshell loafers featuring 5cm heels, Gucci dares to enhance its iconic Horsebit loafers with high platforms, ensuring you’ll be the center of attention wherever you go.

Loafers with picot soles

 

Long considered outdated, moccasins with picot soles are making a comeback, along with boat shoes like Tod’s emblematic Gommino design. These bubble-soled shoes are ready to take over the streets.

 

The Italian brand Tod’s not only preserves tradition but also innovates by offering a wide range of colors and materials for its loafers. Miu Miu adds a patina effect to its shoes, while Mango opts for suede.

White loafers

 

Evoking the purity and timeless charm of the 1980s, these clean canvas loafers transport us to 5bis rue de Verneuil in Paris. Valentino, with its recently appointed CEO Alessandro Michele, revamps this classic design by adding a golden bit embossed with its logo to accentuate the shoe.

 

For an even more pristine look, Totem adorns their loafers with faux crocodile embossed leather, while COS takes a traditional approach, positioning the white loafer as a wardrobe essential.

Loafers with raffia

 

Blending traditional craftsmanship with modernity, raffia loafers are the perfect option for spring-summer 2024. Their braided patterns and sleek lines make them a must-have design.

 

Offered by renowned brands such as Victoria Beckham with a discreet bit, JW Anderson with a modern cream hue, and Aquazzura with imposing cane work, these shoes add a subtle touch to your style and elevate it to the next level.

Two-tone loafers

 

A bold reinvention of classic loafers, these emblematic shoes from the 1990s were famously worn by Lady Di as she wandered the streets of London. Featuring vibrant color combinations, two-tone moccasins are perfect for expressing your individuality.

 

Jimmy Choo offers a classic version in black and white, while Camper introduces a three-tone design – black, cappuccino, and blue – and Nomasei reimagines their flagship design with shades of orange, perfect for the summer season. These colorful loafers bring dynamism and character to any outfit.

Suede loafers

 

Suede loafers with light-colored soles are the epitome of quiet luxury. Their velvety texture contrasts with the luminous sole, creating a floating effect.

 

Whether in neutral tones for a classic look at Woolrich and Chatelles or in bolder hues like Roger Vivier’s squirrel hue, these loafers embody the perfect blend of luxury and simplicity.
