As we have spent the last seasons perched on our Babies with XXL heels<\/strong>, a return to almost-flat<\/strong> seems to be taking place for the coming months. After a comeback of ballerinas under the spotlight, with ballet core, a new mid-heel trend is making waves right now: kitten heels! Combining comfort and elegance, these iconic shoes from the 60s are making a strong comeback. Let’s discover 3 ways to wear them in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where does the kitten heel trend come from?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While kitten heels had left our radars since the early 2000s, retro heels<\/strong> seem to be writing a new chapter in their story in 2024. We have to go back to the 1960s<\/strong> to rediscover the enthusiasm that this little heel inspired among all fashion addicts. Offering a new feminine silhouette, designers proposed shoes that combined glamour with comfort. Measuring between 3.5 cm and 5 cm<\/strong>, kitten heels appealed to both novices in heel walking as well as women wishing to create more comfortable outfits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Roger Vivier and Christian Dior<\/strong>, other designers managed to revive the popularity of these little heels in the 1980s and 90s<\/strong>. Notable mentions include Prada, Manolo Blahnik, and Gucci<\/strong>, which is once again presenting itself this year as one of the trendsetters for kitten heels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did Audrey Hepburn and Emily Ratajkowski become the icons to follow?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Similar to the Mob wife aesthetic trend<\/a> we analyzed last week, the passion for kitten heels is also partly due to style icons from the film industry. Audrey Hepburn<\/strong>, who was a significant source of inspiration for women, notably made kitten heels a strong piece in her wardrobe. Alongside her, other women who greatly impacted fashion helped popularize kitten heels, such as Jackie Kennedy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the new generation of fashion icons approaches them with just as much elegance. Hailey Bieber swaps ballet core<\/a> for kitten heels, just like Emily Ratajkowski and Kendall Jenner, making this shoe model the IT piece to have for 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How are kitten heels taking over the 2024 fashion week runways?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After igniting passions with its crescent bag<\/a>, The Row<\/strong> embraces trends by releasing its pair of kitten heels. Prada, Miu Miu<\/strong>, Gucci, Ala\u00efa, Coperni, and Jil Sander also contribute their models of boots, pumps, or small-heeled slingbacks<\/strong>. Designers are closely followed by brands like Mango and Stradivarius, who are also riding the trend, sensing a good number of orders to come in the upcoming weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While some pairs are anchored in classic<\/strong> black and white tones, others embrace the double trend by featuring intense red<\/strong>, which has captured the hearts of fashionistas for several months. Patterns are also making their way onto some pairs, alongside models in metallic shades<\/strong>, heralding the predicted arrival of metallic pieces and accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to wear kitten heels stylishly?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Kitten heels are featured on various types of shoes including pumps, mules, Babies, and even boots<\/strong>. They can be found in clean styles or, conversely, adorned with multiple straps. Slingbacks are also trending and seem ready to replace ankle boots with the arrival of warmer days! Here are some pieces to shop on Modalova<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
