Currently, I’m bleary-eyed, running on too little sleep, and sipping my second coffee of the day—a fitting state to write about slippers, the biggest shoe trend of Fall 2025.
Now, these slippers don’t come with fuzzy bunny ears. They aren’t covered in shearling or stacked on a platform. (No offense to Ugg’s viral Tasman slippers, which I own and swear by as a great shoe for long-haul flights.) The ones we're seeing on the feet of pretty much every fashion girl are sleeker, made of soft leather, satin, or velvet, more akin to slip-on mules. Think of them like house slippers you’re allowed—nay, encouraged—to wear outside, with a quiet luxury undertone. Quiet because, yes, the shoe is half asleep, but also from the wealth it connotes. A woman who has time to kick her feet up for a thirty-minute catnap? That’s rich.
