What used to be a sartorial sin that was seen on middle age tourists is now a fashion trend that is loved by style influencers and celebrities alike.
The socks and sandals combi was repeatedly spotted in designers’ Spring/Summer 2020 collections, from Burberry to Fendi and Gucci. But before you put on any socks with your sandals in an attempt to join the fashionable crowd, remember that you have to put in that little bit of effort to make sure that your whole outfit doesn’t look like you are dashing out to the nearest NTUC. It has to look intentional, not like an accident. And it isn’t just the matching (or clashing) of the socks and sandals that matters. Your entire outfit too.
Black sandal with white socks are safe bets, but go ahead and clash colours to pop your look and add that extra edginess. Bold coloured or patterned socks are fun and eye-catching choices too. While matching socks and sandals to sporty outfits are fool-proof ways to rock this look, you can also try to copy the runway look by matching them with flowy dresses and smart casual outfits.
Let’s take a look at the different ways we can style socks and sandals by taking cues from the fashionistas.
