Fall footwear trends 2021: Types of flats every woman should add to her collection this season!

In the post-pandemic era of fashion, the industry has embraced comfortable and functional aesthetics - much to our relief! Flats and sandals are deemed sophisticated essentials this year and have made a huge comeback on the runways for Fall 2021. There’s nothing quite like the ease of moving around in laid back footwear that does not sacrifice on the element of chic! 

The world’s top designers continue to innovate to bring to us fresh iterations of flat footwear as elevated basics to match modern silhouettes - whether you’re lounging at home or running to and fro at work, flats are your new best friends, and are here to stay! 

Here are the latest, trending styles that you would be happy to invest in and flaunt this fall!

1. Classic Ballet Flats

Ballet flats became very popular very fast, but were just as quick to drift out of style and appear drab after a point of time. However, these comfortable staples are back in style and with fresh revamps! They have been stylised to include elements such as suede or quilted detailing, trendy prints, muted colour palettes, ankle straps, pointed toes and much more! Check out our favorites -
