THE HOT THONGS… FOR YOUR FEET
The humble flip-flop is undergoing a style renaissance for Resort ’18.
Coming out from under the office desk like mandals and pool slides years ago, the humble flip-flop is going through a style renaissance for Resort with luxurious – and sometimes over-the-top – updates. Take Dior’s, which are made of leather and adorned with plumage, or Valentino’s in rubber with mink fur straps, and even high street renditions that come swathed in statement crystals – all dressy enough to pair with ballgowns and pretty frocks. To mangle a famous lyric, it’s about time you let them see that thong. (Clockwise from top left) Leather slippers with feathers, and cotton midi skirt, Dior.
