The Designer Shoes Everyone Will Be Wearing This Year

Let’s dig into one of the shoe trends I’m predicting will get the most wear this year. While designer logo shoes have been circulating for a few seasons now, 2019 is when the trend will explode. In a recent trend report on Who What Wear, Alison Stiefel, VP of marketing at ShopStyle, named logo shoes as one of the top styles to watch out for in 2019. “Logos are making their way to shoes and will reign supreme in 2019,” Steifel explained. “You’ll see logos on everything from sneakers to heels from some of our favorite designers like Prada, Gucci, and Versace.”

We have certainly seen an uptick in logo shoes from designers on the runway and observed a similar trend on the street style scene. The fashion set has been adding more logo shoes into their wardrobes in support of the trend. Go on to see how insiders are wearing them, and then shop our edit.
