Of Course, Alexa Chung Was the First to Step Out in Miu Miu’s Next It Flats
I can spot an It shoe a mile away—Alexa Chung just wore the Miu Miu pair that’s about to take off.
What better introduction to Miu Miu’s soon-to-be biggest shoe trend than seeing it on Alexa Chung, lounging in a garden, grass beneath her, fairy-lights-strewn across her, wearing Miu Miu's Leather Loafers with Straps (£820) with her signature ease? Debuting the shoes in the dreamiest way possible, the model and presenter slipped into a style I’m certain we’ll still be talking about in seasons to come.
With wearability firmly on their side, these non-fiddly flats might just be one of the most practical new launches of the year. Built on a classic loafer silhouette, the black leather pair features a Mary-Jane-style strap that secures the shoe neatly to the foot, along with ruching, a key loafer detail dominating right now, subtle logo branding and a slim, elegant sole.
Available in two colourways, the inky black Chung wears, and a rich chocolate brown, the rich tone allows the loafers to slot easily into a capsule wardrobe. Styled with socks and a mini, as Chung demonstrates, they bring a pretty, preppy energy while still feeling polished and poised.
Blending two of the season’s most influential flat-shoe trends, this clever hybrid design has all the makings of a fashion-person favourite by the time the weather begins to warm. If you see the appeal too, read on to discover Miu Miu’s new loafers—and shop my edit of the very best loafers to know now.
