Bandit wear: sandals with socks booming

Lead: This year’s T-stage has seen a fascinating trend: sandals paired with socks. From the seductive Dior to the intellectual Marni, and even the cool Burberry and Hermès, this unexpected combination is making waves in the fashion world.

Interestingly, the trend of wearing sandals with socks isn’t entirely new. In the 1980s, it was a signature style among lesbian women, while in the 1940s and 1950s, young European girls embraced a similar look—though their versions were more refined. Back then, they wore bobby socks with Oxford shoes, whereas today we often go for flesh-toned nylon stockings with plastic sandals. The modern twist, however, is not only stylish but also more comfortable and practical, keeping feet cozy and allowing shoes to last longer.

Designers are embracing this playful and simple way of dressing, proving that sometimes the most unexpected combinations can become the most iconic. Whether you're going for Roman shoes, chunky heels, or strappy sandals, pairing them with socks adds a unique edge to your look. It's not just about being trendy—it's about expressing yourself in a fun and fearless way. And right now, this trend is gaining momentum, spreading across the globe and inspiring fashion lovers everywhere.
