After several seasons splashing coats and pants, the snake print reaches the shoes to become the ultimate animal print.
That animal print is one of those prints destined not to go out of fashion we already knew. What we didn’t expect was that it would be an old acquaintance like him who would conquer footwear this season. After years of being relegated to cowboy or glam looks, this autumn-winter snake shoes are being taken out of context, threatening to become one of the essential basics of the coldest months.
Although to be completely honest, their arrival does not catch us completely unprepared. Thus, it has been several seasons since the snake print returned to our lives by the hand of standard bearers like Kendall Jenner or Bella Hadid – experimenting with its possibilities and even with nostalgic winks. The novelty however lies this time in its support, as this year it finds its perfect complement in footwear. An area that he also explored during the 2000’s -although limited by boots and stilettos-, and that this season comes to new life with moccasins, platforms and even dancers.
The aesthetics of these new snake shoes are based on rock icons and pop references such as the film Almost Famous, and moves away from other more obvious styles through versions that imitate natural snakeskin or experiment with colors such as red, yellow or green. This is not an option for shy people who opt for childish garments to complement their styles and soften the aggressiveness of this print animal: silly collars, socks and even peek-a-boo can be a more than appropriate option to achieve a perfect mid-season look.
And remember: if you are a fan of the animal trend, not only snake prints live accessories: tiger prints, zebra prints or the traditional leopard print continue for another season, bringing a wild touch to garments in sophisticated fabrics and special accessories. Now all that remains is to decide on the print that best suits our style (and it won’t be an easy task).
