If you’ve recently seen some cool but weird trends, chances are they have something to do with Demna Gvasalia of Vetements. Case in point: the sock-meets-shoe trend which the man introduced in the Vetements Spring/Summer 2016 collection. The look has since caught on with not just the street style pack, but also high-end brands, who have each created their own spin on the look. We think its popularity may be due to the shoes’ oddly cool hybrid look. But on the style front, it also creates an illusion of a slimmer ankle. What’s not to like?

The silhouette heel and open toe element of this adds a feminine and classy element to the typical sock boots.
This is one of our favourite sock shoe picks because of its unique sphere heel. Spliced into half with wood and clear perspex, the heel creates an illusion that you’re floating.
For a more chic spin to your outfit, opt for a high-knee pair.
Yes, sock sneakers are a thing. Pair with a midi-skirt to give your outfit a sporty twist.
This classic piece is where the entire trend started. What we love about it: the heel is designed like a lighter, which adds a super cool touch to the shoe.
Do colour blocking the right way with this pair. To make your outfit pop, wear this with cropped and frayed blue jeans.
If you’re into layering, this sock-on-heel pair is for you. It might look intimidating at first but can add a girly touch when paired with a white dress.
Combine two trends in one with this pair which comes in Fall’s favourite scarlet hue and a sock-boot silhouette.
