The fall 2024 trends offer a healthy assortment of autumn's perennial favorites and novel twists on the classics. Along with an all-star cast of coveted designer handbags at New York Fashion Week and a breeding ground for new hat trends, the major shoe trends also encapsulated the season's everything-but-the-kitchen-sink variety.
Across the 2024 runways were reliable everyday shoes like darling mule-style heels, kitten heels, and some of the best boots you can ask for on an autumn stroll. Chemena Kamali's 53-look collection for Chloé (the German designer's first for the French fashion house and, in our humble opinion, one of Fall 2024's strongest) was a prime encapsulation of the season's overarching variety: in the highly anticipated runway show, shoe trends oscillated from sensible ballet flats to teetering pumps and buttery boots that hit at the high upper thigh (and higher). It was as if Kamali and her cohorts designed their footwear collections with every mood a woman could have in mind.
