Ballet companies are quietly returning to the spotlight, but not in the way we once knew them. Gone are the days when you could sneak in on a lazy day to pretend you weren’t working too hard. Today they were bitten.
Gucci’s latest ballet is understated, sophisticated and almost subversively luxurious. It’s a shoe that doesn’t have to prove anything, but just does the bare minimum to get noticed. This season’s latest Miu Miu ballet.
Then there’s Alaia. Their mesh flats aren’t just an accessory, they’re a statement. These are the ballet shoes you wear when you want to let the world know you’re walking the line between softness and structure. A viral design that spread to stores around the world.
Of course, don’t forget about Margiela’s tabi socks. When they first arrived on the scene, they encountered chaos. Split toes, awkwardness, defiance. But somehow, despite their strangeness, they have become the basis of this movement. Because why settle for convention when you can break with tradition and still be totally chic? Shoes for those who don’t have time to live up to other people’s expectations
Miu Miu, on the other hand, knows how to utilize nostalgic cards. Soft, delicate and almost too sweet, these satin ballet flats are made for those who know exactly how to turn fragility into strength. They are youthful but never naive, a testament to Miu Miu’s uncanny ability to make youth feel like luxury.
These shoes are bringing back ballet flats in a big way, whether minimalist, rebellious, or nostalgic. It’s no longer just about comfort. They’re meant to make a statement while you’re at it.
