CRAZY SHOES AT MILAN FASHION WEEK FALL 2021
Shoes and Accessories|March 2021
Despite the pandemic, Milan Fashion Week continued its tradition of showcasing some of the boldest shoes on the runway and in presentations for the fall ’21 season. Even as most shows were broadcast to editors, buyers and spectators virtually, both the ready-to-wear and footwear for the season ahead caught the fashion world’s attention. PVC-covered sneakers from Dolce & Gabanna and bulbous platforms by Prada, to underscore some, were just some of the craziest shoes offered for fall.

DOLCE & GABANNA

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana took the sentiment quite literally by working with the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) for their fall ’21 collection. The designers utilized multifunctional humanoid robots, to help bring their designs to life. The robots helped generate the 135 looks for the show, inspired by the bold style channeled by the supermodels of the ’90s. The collection didn’t skimp on footwear, either. Bold shoes such as the Italian luxury brand’s PVC-covered sneakers caught the attention of viewers. The chic yet sensible-for-the-pandemic-era covering featured the fashion house’s signature logo throughout the upper, including in the form of snaps. Dolce & Gabbana’s snow boots from the show were also noteworthy. Several bold colorways were introduced for fall ’21, including holographic chrome, yellow leopard and rhinestone-embellished, all in the form of a puffy, insulated boot.
