Heels With Socks: The Controversial Combo Becoming Winter’s Most Comfortable Trend

Major fashion houses—including Miu Miu, Prada, Brunello Cucinelli, Ganni, and Proenza Schouler—have all shown heels with socks in their collections this past year. Some chose to match practical gray stockings with sensible heels for a kind of avant-garde granny effect. Louis Vuitton went with socks in ribbed fabric that hit mid-thigh and lengthened the leg, while Rabanne, Marni, and Moschino went for a romantic take with socks in shiny fabrics. Chanel even snuck into the trend with a shoe that’s a hybrid between a sock and heel.

In short, the combination of high heels with socks embodies what fashion is truly all about: expressing yourself, having fun, and standing out by showing off. The best part about this trend is that you can adapt it to your own personal style—any pairing of socks with heels will do.
