Trend Alert: Chunky Dad Sandals

The year 2020 lives on comfortable influences in fashion - #stayhome thanks - and this shoe trend also rises out of this development: "Dad" sandals are now the new it-piece. Already they have become friends with you, they are already sold out again! For all late bloomers Vestiaire Collective offers the opportunity.

No more minimalist flat sandals like we saw last year. Instead, this season the rule is: the bigger, the more daring, the better. Flat sandals are the perfect accessory to play with contrasts and emphasize your silhouette. This summer's most iconic sandal, the Dad Sandal presents a touch of the past

The most luxurious version is found at Chanel. The Cord & Lambskin variant is already in the range for the first time in 2016 and this year is just the right thing for the perfectly unadorned French Girl look. The flat, street-style sandal by Chanel fits this concept perfectly with its corduroy function, which radiates an effortlessly chic aesthetic.

This season, the Arizona Love label showed us just how effortlessly chic and comfortable it can look when Dad sandals meet functional trekking sandals. Its trademarks are brightly coloured bandana straps.

The so-called "Ugly Chic" was propagated by Miuccia Prada already in the nineties. Inspired by trekking and climbing equipment, as well as the Birkenstocks, these sandals have taken our hearts and Instagram by storm.

Celebrities like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Kaia Gerber and Alexa Chung combine the chunky silhouette casually with jeans or cool with a suit.
