2025 Will Be Noted for These 10 Legendary It Shoes
We're at that time of year when we begin to reflect on everything that has happened over the past months, and for those who follow fashion, the standout It shoes of 2025 are surely a key topic of interest. The list I've put together below is not exhaustive. There have been so many exceptional shoes this year that I did my best to narrow it down. The ten most iconic It shoes of 2025 include a range of styles, from suede Miu Miu sneakers to Gucci ballet flats to Prada pumps. You'll observe that many of these selections are various types of heels, which is intentional. While we previously saw a surge of kitten heels, this year has offered a wide array of heel styles—from block heels to wedge heels to stiletto mules. Although kitten heels are still popular, 2025 has certainly introduced a lot of diversity. Continue reading to explore this variety in It shoes and shop for the year’s most iconic styles.
**Prada Antiqued Leather Pumps**
It would be a disservice to discuss It shoes without mentioning Prada, and one particular style has captivated the fashion community. The Antiqued Leather Pumps are not only unique and trendy but also possess a timeless appeal that makes them a valuable investment.

**The Row Dune Sandals**
As divisive as they may be, The Row's Dune Sandals were undeniably the must-have shoes of summer 2025. If any brand can persuade people to spend $690 on a pair of rubber flip-flops, it’s The Row. Celebrities and influencers like Elizabeth Olsen and Jennifer Lawrence paired them with various outfits this year—from the beach to the city.

**Phoebe Philo Club Slippers**
Phoebe Philo's namesake label delivered numerous amazing pieces this year, but the refined Club Slippers really made waves in the fashion world. This is likely due to the rise of the high-vamp-pump trend that many trendy shoe brands are adopting.

**Jimmy Choo x Conner Ives Gloria Mules**
Conner Ives's collaboration with Jimmy Choo has received plenty of It-girl approval. The Gloria T-strap mules, especially in zebra (the choice of Dua Lipa) or leopard calf hair, are certainly worth a splurge.

**Saint Laurent Amalia Pumps**
Saint Laurent's Amalia Pumps are not for the faint-hearted, and that’s part of their charm. After debuting on the brand's F/W 25 runway, these shoes quickly gained traction. The dramatic elongated toe and slender heel are softened by the romantic hand-folded satin rose.

The second pair of classic It shoes from The Row contrasts greatly with the Dune Sandals. These calf-hair ballet flats, featuring a square toe, may be simple, but they embody The Row's minimalism that makes their shoes highly desirable.
