A new trend that we are all seeing this summer and coming
fall is one that seems so simple, but makes a statement. Cut out shoes are
taking the stage and everyone is watching. The leader of this trend is none
other than the edgy, urban inspired designer Alexander Wang. His shoe
collection features several new designs with what at first glance just seem
like holes.
Meticulously placed, these cut outs create an unexpected
twist on the classic shoe and develop a strong contrast between the shoe and
the wearer’s skin tone. This creates a color blocking effect that is flattering
on everyone and can be worn in many different ways.
Wang was not the only designer to take part in this up and coming trend. Designers such as Marc Jacobs and Maison Martin Margiela created cut out sneakers that are sure to make a statement. Coming in bright neon colors as well as the classic black, Marc Jacobs also added a wedge to his designs.
Retailers also took notice, and Alexander
Wang’s designs have been carefully copied by brands such as Topshop and Tony
Bianco at a fraction of the cost.

Retail designers, especially Topshop and Zara, took the idea
into their own hands as well.
The great thing about cut out shoes is that they are so
versatile and can be dressed up or down in many ways. These stylish shoes can
be worn for dinner, running errands, school, or work.
Overall, cut out shoes are a great investment piece for the
upcoming seasons, being shown as flats, boots, and sandals, and are now a
staple wardrobe piece.
