The best cult boot trends to know now

Moon boots à la Dua Lipa, glamorous knee-highs fit for the dancefloor and the resurgence of a noughties kitsch classic (move over Crocs, the UGG returns as our cold-weather savior) — this season’s most-wanted boots speak to individual style. From the new releases that took fashion month by storm to the designs blowing up your social feeds, discover 2022’s cult boots — plus all the need-to-know size and fit advice — ahead of shopping your favorite trending pairs on Londiny.

After spending much of 2021 in slippers, boots fit for partying marked a celebratory move into real-world dressing earlier this year and continue to reign supreme for holiday season. Ultra-glamorous, dancefloor-ready pairs come courtesy of Jimmy Choo’s Blake wedge-heel boots in gold ‘Liquid Metal’ alongside Paris Texas’ pointed-toe designs — a celebrity-approved favorite seen on Chrissy Teigan, Sofia Richie, Yara Shahidi et al. The party boot is one of fall’s most versatile styles when it comes to event dressing, with high-octane knee-highs lending themselves to a host of styling opportunities, from dresses and tailoring to one of 2022’s most-loved pieces: the micro mini skirt.
