There are some associations we make in fashion. For example, an all-black outfit is slimming and undeniably chic, while a dainty gold necklace adds a touch of French girl sophistication.
Espadrilles, once deemed as peasant footwear, have grown in popularity and are now a fashion favourite among celebs and fashionistas. Their elaborately woven jute base and casual canvas upper bring to mind images of a summer vaycay, and are undeniably a staple for the season. These days, espadrilles come in all shapes and forms, whether as wedges or flats, or with embellishments and charms.
Below, we’ve rounded up 10 different espadrilles that will have you rocking summer in comfort and style.

We love how this Alighieri pair draws inspiration from gladiator sandals and espadrille flats, so it’s both feminine and edgy.
