Most of the shoe trends for summer 2019 we saw coming, such as strappy sandals and velcro sandals, however, there is one pair of shoes that we keep spotting on celebrity feet that has totally thrown us—colorful heels. Victoria Beckham has arguably kick-started this one thanks to the three-inch high stilettos from her own label are available in both neon green and pink. She has worn them to every event in her calendar this summer, from a football match at Old Trafford to a night with the Duchess of Cambridge to a wedding in Seville.
Fashion has always had its role in luxury hospitality whether in the form of on-location tailors and stylists or storefronts for the world’s most exclusive brands. Now a combination of technology, a shifting consciousness around sustainability, and an ever-growing luxury traveler base is leading to the rise of fashion concierges and rental services for the modern high-end traveler.
Vogue Italia is looking old-fashioned in its first issue of the new year (and decade), altogether eschewing photo shoots in favor of more environmentally “sustainable” illustrations.
