Square-Toed Shoes Are Getting Square-ier

It’s hip to be square this season, because every designer is cashing in on this shape of shoe. We’ve seen versions of this ’90s style over the years, but the newest versions are somehow… square-ier? Leading the pack is Bottega Veneta under the new creative vision of Daniel Lee. His first collection of accessories is an Influencer’s dream that’s all over our feed. Not only is “New Bottega’s” pouch clutch a hot commodity and a future classic, their razor sharp shoes are quickly amassing a cult-following. If you can’t get your hands on our favorite style—a mesh pump with an attached gold anklet that’s selling out everywhere—brands high and low are also participating in the trend. There’s Topshop’s affordable sandal, a heeled thong from indie accessories brand Neous, and a Balenciaga boot so sharp it might cut someone. Square up to the hottest shoe of the year.
