Apologies to my comfy flats, but next year these heels will be everywhere

Prada’s shows have always shown us what we’ll be wearing in six months’ time, and the Spring/Summer 2025 show was a celebration of personal style. There are futuristic threads running through the collection, with wraparound silver sunglasses appealing to a more oriented clientele, while pointed heels with silver toe caps are emblazoned with ‘Cult Best Seller’ across the board.

After combing through non-show street style images this fashion month, I already had foil-covered pumps on my personal shopping list.

I noticed that I was back to . True, they were low, walkable versions.

This collection made a case for wearing flashy shoes in bright times. These shiny pumps definitely look better with jeans and a T-shirt than anything with sequins or feathers. If you’re willing to invest, you can find mirrored low pumps at Jil Sander, Christian Louboutin, Isabel Marant, and more. This trend is definitely making its way into affordable retailers, too, as brands like ASOS, H&M, and ZARA offer styles that quickly become the most complimented shoes.

Style Notes: Add a statement accent to a classic black and navy look with silver pointed pumps.

Style Notes: While this look might normally be paired with chunky boots or classic ballet flats, mirrored pumps, traditionally reserved for after-sunset dressing, give this outfit an off-beat edge that really makes it sing. It’s a great styling choice.

Style Notes: British Vogue’s Alice Carey spices up her striped T-shirt dress with silver pumps. As expected of Carrie Bradshaw.
