The 8 Shoe Trends Everyone Will Buy in 2020

Now that spring is just around the corner, we're diving into all of the biggest trends spotted on the runways in New YorkLondonMilan, and Paris. Around the office, Who What Wear’s editors have been comparing notes about the showstopping trends we anticipate will be huge in spring 2020. Yes, we’re still entrenched in winter, but we can’t help but think ahead to where fashion will lead us in the coming months.

While there are plenty of ways fashion will be transforming this year, today, we’re discussing the key shoe trends. There's no doubt that other, smaller micro-trends will be emerging, but these are the most important ones to have on your radar. Ahead, discover the eight shoe trends that will be everywhere in 2020. And if you can’t wait to wear them, shop our edit of styles to add to your wardrobe right now.

We can't wait to wear this cool trend. Anklets and metal-link jewelry have been everywhere this year, and shoes with chain details are now bringing them to your feet in a more permanent way.
Several seasons ago, loafers were everywhere but have since tapered off. Well, they're back, but this time with the addition of a block heel and mixed textures. There's no doubt these will be one of the biggest shoe trends of 2020.
Mary Jane heels are a classic shape that has a long history of fashion fans. Who can forget Carrie Bradshaw discovering a pair of Manolo Mary Janes in the fashion closet at Vogue? The 2019 versions include bold colors such as fuchsia and mint green, as well as sculptural shapes, as seen at Maison Margiela.
This season was full of minimal heels with details like toe rings and asymmetric straps—taking regular mules or Mary Janes and injecting sculptural elements into them. The colors? Most designers stuck to black or white.
While there were plenty of new color trends, we keep seeing sunny shades of electric yellow and orange on repeat. With sneaker versions as well as luxe finishes like satin and knotted leather, there are styles across the board that will be compelling us to wear the bold hues.
Espadrilles are returning in a huge way for spring. This time around, they're designed with everything from thick platforms and embellished straps to jewel details. And if you're looking for a fashion-forward way to wear them, lace them over pants at the ankle.
While knee-high boots are the fall trend we can't get enough of, over-the-knee versions will be everywhere next spring. We're seeing sock-like styles that fit snugly to the leg with thicker heels than their predecessors.
Since '70s fashion emerged as one of the biggest trends of the season overall, it's no surprise that platforms were spotted all over the runways. With everything from jeweled flatforms to open-toe sandals to brogue versions, there are plenty of ways insiders will be adopting them.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
