Gigi Hadid Just Wore 2017’s “Ugly” Shoe Trend

Trust Gigi Hadid to already be ahead of the curve. The model stepped out in New York City today wearing one of next year's biggest shoe trends—pointy lace-up low-heel boots. Typically, this style of shoe has been deemed 'ugly' or 'weird', but that's only because we're not used to it. It was big back in the '90s (I remember my mum exclusively wore this style of boots for years), so it's not surprising it's finally made its way back.
While it's summer on our side of the world, the beauty of this style of boot is you can wear it all-year round. We suggest snapping up a pair now, so you can wear them in, in time for next season.
Keep scrolling to peep Hadid in the boots (hers are part of the Rihanna x Manolo Blahnik collection), and shop a style for yourself.
On Hadid: Rihanna x Manolo Blahnik Dancehall Cowgirl Jewel Boots ($3015).
