Fashion ‘It’ girls such as Zoë Kravitz and Gigi Hadid are just 2 celebrities who love the comfy ballet flat – incorporate the footwear style into your own wardrobe with the help of these brands

Comfy ballet flats – the elegantly understated footwear style distinguished by their thin heel and rounded toe – have become an integral part of our wardrobes, and there’s a good reason for that. They’ll work with just about anything you choose to wear, whether it’s a pair of well-cut trousers, a cocktail dress or – in Margaret Qualley’s case – a wedding gown.
It’s no wonder, then, that dance-inspired slippers are currently a popular choice among other fashion “It” girls such as Zoë Kravitz and Gigi Hadid. Check out some of the designer pairs we can’t get enough of.
