12 Uber-chic flats every fashionista should own

If you think classic flats are vanilla, we’re about to change your opinion. Whenever you’re stumped at what shoes would go on your look, flats rise as a knight in shining armour. Unsung heroes of our shoe closet, the comfort of sliding into a pair of flats is sheer divinity while its style is as noteworthy as a pair of stilettos. From failsafe to fashion-forward, designers have stepped up the shoe game with pairs of runway-worthy sandals you can pull off the catwalk in. Trade your towering heels unapologetically as we shine the spotlight on 12 uber-chic flats that will take you places this season.

For D-day comfort

Nuptial ceremonies can be tedious and with the heavy jewellery and lehenga that has already weighed you down, the time-honoured juttis are the best to be trusted upon. Apart from this ideal purpose, juttis come in an array of ingeniously crafted embroideries and colours to complement your magnificent bridal look.

For festive frolicking

From ethnic counterparts of loafers to ultra-feminine mojris, count on elegant and ankle-framing styles to finish off your festive looks with a spirited vibe. Consider them as investment pieces, because they can be paired with so much more than your kurta sets. Think bohemian dresses, culottes or even your maxi skirts!

For a summer holiday

Vacations give you the best reason to play around with your style. From exploring places to lounging around or catching a connecting flight, flats let you move easily all while keeping your chic factor in check. Say hello to strappy numbers to keep the style stakes high this summer!

From 9 to 5

For fashionistas on-the-go, we’ve picked sliders and flats that are anything but mundane. Boasting of polished aesthetics with dashes of style, neutrals are rendered with eye-catchy elements. A couple of metallic styles won’t be inappropriate and can easily transition you from desk to dinner and beyond.
