The Most Stylish Over 50s Are Ditching Stilettos For This Comfortable, Cooler Shoe Trend
Instead of stilettos, the chicest dressers are wearing this elevated alt right now.
This week, what was supposed to be a leisurely scroll through Instagram came to a halt when I spotted an image of Tracee Ellis Ross that had me rushing to the Who What Wear Slack channels. Whilst stilettos have dominated my feed ever since wedding season kicked into full swing, Tracee took a decidedly more fashion-person approach, swapping the sky-high skinny heel for a sculptural cone heel instead.
Tapering from a wider base to a slimmer point, the silhouette sits somewhere between a wedge and a stiletto, lending stability without sacrificing poise, creating a heel that's not only more comfortable to walk in but also brings an architectural element that immediately elevates a look.
Styling hers with a knee-length skirt, Tracee also tapped into one of the chicest outfit formulas fashion people are gravitating towards this season.
It's no surprise that this heel shape is finding favour with some of the most stylish dressers right now. Sophisticated, comfortable and chic, read on to discover my edit of the best cone heels to shop now.
