Apparently No One Packed This Shoe Trend for Paris
If you follow even one fashion person on social media, you know that it's the height of Paris Fashion Week. From editors to influencers, models to photographers, everyone in the industry is flocking to the city to attend the S/S 19 shows. To get updated on the latest happenings at PFW, we've put together a handy 15-second guide. As for the street style looks, well, rest assured that we're covering every ounce of outfit inspiration, from Le Marais to Tuileries Palace and back again.
There's one major 2018 trend that seems to be absent in Paris right now, though, and that is sneakers—more specifically, dad sneakers. Given that most of the Paris Fashion Week attendees have been traveling to Milan, London, and New York in one fell swoop, we're a little surprised that the shoe trend hasn't made much of a splash this time around. That's not to say that sneakers are "out," seeing as they were all over the place just days prior in Milan.
Rather, showgoers opted for sleeker shoe trends, like leather boots and pointed-toe pumps. To get a look at the shoe trends that are making waves in Paris at the moment, keep reading below.
Now you're up to speed on what everyone's wearing in Paris.
