Even fashionable dressers are now opting for this "bold" shoe trend instead of black pumps and ballet flats.
Although exceptions exist, we have generally been caught in a prolonged cycle of understated shoe trends that have continued long after the peak of the quiet luxury trend. Trends like minimalist ballet flats, basic flip-flops, low-profile sneakers, derby flats, and kitten-heel pumps are among those I’m referencing. However, Sofia Richie, known for her chic, understated looks, has recently been spotted in one of this fall's boldest shoe trends: royal purple satin shoes.

Richie's purple-and-teal wedge-heel mules from Dries Van Noten are just a few examples of this royal purple satin trend, which has been adopted by other luxury brands like Saint Laurent and Valentino.
